I'M TIRED!!!!!!

For those of you who have young kids will appreciate this. Also, I am sure that some of you will be understanding of why I have been bad about keeping in touch lately. The time difference also doesn't help.

But just so you guys have an idea of what my weekend is like, I think these videos will explain it nicely. I took these today after Shawn woke up at 3 am and Ethan woke up at 5 am. They start earlier. After breakfast and constant activity (you cannot take your eyes off of Ethan) Ethan needs to get out. This was now the second time for today that he decided that the dry dog food should be in the dogs water dish. We go for a 1 mile walk while the boys ride their tricycles. Come back home for lunch and more play. Not enough play so the boys make it over to the neighbors to play on their jungle gym. And then more play. I have work to do so Greg plays with them while I do the laundry. We go out again to get the boys out of the house. Come back they are tired but want to play some more. So I make dinner, give them a bath, and put them in bed. While I went to get their milk this is what they were doing.

During this day we have also been doing other household stuff. So while one watches the other does some form of cleaning. So the reason we are none responsive is because neither Greg nor I have really sat down since 5 am.....Actually, Greg was up with Shawn since 3 am. Shawn and Ethan are also LESS active now then before especially since neither one of them took a nap. If you pay attention and are able to sit through the whole thing you will notice that even my Husky Sasha is beat.

One other note....Greg had also been wrestling with them hoping to tire them out. By the time I got the camera, he was the one that was tired. So I missed that shot. Maybe next time.



What do you think?

Like I don't have enough to do, I decide I will cut the boys hair. It gets so busy for me that I haven't been able to find a place of the kids to get their hair cut. So, here are pics of the boys after they allowed me to try. Let me know your thoughts....only if they are positive though. Here are the before and after pictures.




Imaginative Play

This is the second of two videos I took of the boys in their imaginative play. Shawn is the one who comes up with the idea. I think it's pretty cool. Hope you enjoy too.
