Yes, They're All Mine!

This is where a woman who has nine children can finally, hopefully get away from people who ask stupid questions like: "Are they all yours or do you run a day care?"

Last Day of Freedom

This was our last day to sleep in. I am one of those weird moms that actually loves having her kids home with her. Well, that is because I don't work outside of the home. So I have that luxury. I love not having a schedule and just letting the kids get up whenever. I dread tomorrow when things will be back to normal. Especially because Tyler is in basketball and Emily will be doing badminton and who knows what else will come along.
It is funny because the hubby wants them to be involved in things but I am the one who does almost all of the running around! Having a baby who is teething and not sleeping does not bode well either. With the older girls being home I have been able to catch up on sleep by going back to bed in the morning. Then they watch the baby and the kids for me. I am not going to be a happy camper running around with no sleep. God give me the strength and the patience!!
I have to get organized today so that there will be less crabbing in the morning!
So today we are hanging out, the boys are watching all of their Star Wars movies. They recieved the full set for Christmas. I am going to do laundry and we have a family coming over for dinner. Not exactly a totally relaxing day but could be worse.
The biggest thing that I have to do today is get my calendar in order for the new year. Otherwise, I will be in big trouble! I am lost without it. I swear I must look at that thing twenty times a day because I am afraid of forgetting something. But with nine kids and many outside activities I have to keep track. I know tomorrow is going to be crazy because after work the hubby is hosting a Catholic radio show, Tyler has a basketball game, and we have a birthday party. I am working on bilocation!!!
I know, I sound like I am in a frumpy mood today. I am! I don't want to send the kids back to school and so today I think I will have a tantrum about it!
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!
