eight is great!

3 handsome men delivered breakfast in bed to me this morning.

i'll happily awake from a deep sleep to that any day of the week:)

8 years went by in a snap!

HAPPY HAPPY

to my sean sean.

...........................................................
the rest of the morning went like this:
1. sean leaves for work
2. max dumps OHs cereal all over floor
{easy to vaccum, crisis averted, slightly annoyed it was the expensive cereal, could be worse...}
3. nurse chase
4. max wants phone
5. max needs help with phone
6. try to help max with phone
7. max hits chase while nursing
8. chase cries
9. scold max, time out after chase is done
10. max hides in curtain
11. max comes back, hits chase again {now i'm really annoyed}
12. point finger and tell her to "go to timeout" in a mean mommy voice
13. max says "NO!" and marches away
14. max brings me her ruby red shoes, wants them on
15. i tell her "i will help you put them on when chase is done eating."
16. max hits chase over the head with her shoes
17. chase screams, face bright red
18. i am now furious and tell her i'm going to throw her shoes in the trash {not my finest hour}
19. put chase down, eating has to wait, pick up max, consider locking her in the basement {this is the crazy mom that lives inside of me}, decide to grab the booster seat in the the basement instead
20. strap max to the booster seat--mommy 1 point, max 40,000 points {go me}
21. leave max there for 20 min while i finish feeding chase
22. send max to friend's house and brennan on a field trip with grandma
23. angels sing--is it time for my date tonight yet???

 8 years ago today i was taking pictures in the tulips of temple square.

it was 70 and sunny.

the most perfect day i could have dreamed up.

another gorgeous sunny day today,

with gorgeous babies.

healthy and happy.

the happiest life i could ever have dreamed up.

even with a 2 year old that is really naughty when i nurse.

it's a good thing they are all so cute.

and that i can laugh at it when it's all over.

have mercy.
