Crazy Days

I'm laying on the couch feelin' sorry for myself and thought I'd glance back at my blog and try to work on the 'project' i've been putting together for my next post, but not really feeling in the mood.  So I started reading my friend Kelli's blog and am feeling alittle reproofed.  Thanks so much Kelli for your posts! They are so thoughtful and positive and got me thinking...  so here's another post to hopefully turn my mood around.
Let's start at the beginning of my day... I think it was 530ish in the morning with MB.  After spending forever in the potty telling my version of Goldilocks & the Three Bears & 3 Little Pigs we went downstairs and started cleaning and working on breakfast and lunch for Hugh.  I picked up my pasta sauce, but I guess the lid wasn't on and so the bottle fell and the sauce sprayed (exploded might give you a better picture of what actually happened) all over me, baby, my fridge, my wall AND my ceiling!!! Check the time - it's only 7:30...
Shortly after 8, as I'm finally cleaning the splatter from my face and out of my hair, MB hollers for me because she "found a worm that was hiding"... I panicked a bit, worried about what I might find - luckily it was just a playdough worm she made, but a few minutes later, that worm wormed its way into her hair (mushed right in!!!) So, threw her in the tub and it came out pretty good.  If you can believe it, I actually got out of the door by 9 to get to aerobics on time!
I had a pretty good day with my kids, they are pretty amazing!  MB and I made a fort out of chairs and blankets and read a story in there.  I know I'm really lucky to be able to stay at home with my kids everyday and the truth is, that I do love it!  Motherhood is beautiful (I learned it from my Mother). Here are a couple old pics of when I was expecting my first baby... I really had no idea what was in store...  Looking at these pics and hearing other peoples announcements makes me itch for more....
