Yesterday we had a very busy day. We did it all and got it all done but it was hard too. I got the kids in or out of the car 15 times. Wow that adds up. In at the house, out at school, in at school, out at the grocery, in at the grocery, out at the house, in at the house, out at school, in at school, out at the house, in at the house, out at music, in at music, out at MD office and in at MD office. I felt like no one got the attention they deserved or needed. I know life will have it's up and downs like that. Some days we have things we need to get done and then other days will be all about the kids. It's a balancing act and will all balance out but right now since being a family of 5 is still very new to us one day throws us off a lot. Avery came home with a birthday bag. She needed to write/draw in a school notebook what she had done for her bday. 4 other kids had already had it and written about their bday. I left Av working on that, Camille with her coloring and went to nurse Everett on the couch in the same room. Next thing I knew Camille had gotten my water bottle. I didn't think much of it until I heard Av scream, "No Camille!!" Camille was taking mouthfuls of water and spiting them on Av and the school notebook. Oh my!! Not good. Today is all about Everett while the girls are at school and tomorrow will be all about them. We will get back on track!
