Our life is the best life.

My family is my world! There is my husband Brad and I, and we have 1 son, and 3 girls. Zach is 6, Mckenzie is 4, Brynn is 2, and little Piper is 7 mo. We live in Jonesborough TN, while Brad works at a Nuclear plant, as a chemical engineer, I get to stay at home w/ the troops. Zach is about to go into the 1st grade, and the girls just get to hang out at home w/ me. Life is always crazy, but great too.

Life, sooo fun!

Today is going to be a fun day! If I tell myself this MANY times with a positive attitude it will be, I know it. Probably not as fun though as Sunday was though! Sunday started with out little Piper sick with a case of strep, and, as it turns out measles too. So off to church Brad and the 3 other kids went, while Pipes and I got to have a relaxing day. Of course the masses had to come home sometime, and when they did it all went crazy from there. Kids spilled a 1/2 gallon of green paint in the carpet, while rushing to clean that up i left my protein shake on the computer desk, just in time for Piper to come spill it all over the computer, and carpet. Whew, that was crazy! Then as Brad and I were getting dinner ready, the cops show up, WHAT! Yup, one of the kids called 911, and then never hung up, so they had to come to the house to make sure we were ok, since the phone was still on they couldn't call. Finely we ended the night telling jokes over dinner, a few of my favorites were- Why did the Lamenites have sore knees? Because of all the Nephites!, another- Where did the Nephites put their armies? In their sleevies!, and of course Brad told me about one his boss told him, and even though I'd like to tell ya, Brad would probably not be to thrilled about it.
So on to today! Zach does not have school today, due to parent teacher conferences (we'll see how that goes!), so we were a little surprised to hear him up so early today in the shower, Brad reminded him that there was no school today (he is usually our late sleeper, probably so he doesn't have to play with his sisters, lol), but then he informed Brad that he had wet the bed. I can't wait for the bed wetting days to be over! But on the plus side Zach got to take his time in the shower, he could spend forever in there if we let him. He loves just laying on the bottom of the shower with hot water spraying on him. Ahh to be a kid again! I would love a nice big relaxing tub!
As for the girls, Brynn woke up at 5:30 this morning, the day I should get to relax a little. She stomps her way to my room (because, hello she's a kid and that's how they walk on wood floors, gotta be as loud as possible. lol), then in her sweet little voice tells me that she wants to watch Dora, and that she needs me to put it on. AT 5:30! So I put it on, but of course when it's over she's back downstairs. Then that wakes up Kenzie, and fortunately they can sort of entertain each other. Today is also payday which means grocery shopping, and taking ALL 4 kids. It's a great thing that I carry leashes for each kid. No running out in front of the old ladies at the store today, thank you very much. Well we will see how the rest of the day goes, like I said it WILL be a good day!
