Grrrrr

And the sky decides to BARF on us again.

Maybe I jumped the gun....

Update on Polygamist issue.

I'm starting to think I was overly critical of the state for taking ALL of the children. I still worry about due process but if all the kids are at risk then I don't blame the state for taking all of them. Especially if the mothers weren't cooperating and deliberately trying to hose over the investigation.

New News story is in circulation here.

Yay!!! and Poor sick kiddo.

This morning Big G kept his bed dry... ALL NIGHT LONG!!! I was SO HAPPY! This has taken a loooooong time. He is going to be five on June 1st and has had a really hard time potty training. So I was not expecting him to keep it dry for a while because we just took him out of pullups for the night on Monday (I think). Anywho... I was talking to him this morning and we decided we were going to go to Blast Off to celebrate.

Yah, I think that is going to have to wait a couple of days.

Little Li slept in this morning... hooray! or at least that is what I thought. Turns out the kid isn't feeling well. He didn't want much breakfast and then proceeded to puke all over the floor when I set him down to go get Missy My dressed so we could take G to preschool. Poor little guy.

On a Beautiful Day...

So yesterday and today have been bright and shiny (I'll be it windy...but hey, this IS Idaho)! Yay! Hopefully spring is actually here.

Unfortunately all of my kids got a smidgen sunburned yesterday so after spending a small time this morning out in the sun, instead of lather them up in sun lotion (I don't have any spray on ...yet) we decided to play inside for a bit.

These are my kids favorite things to do inside when they can't be playing outside.


Play Lego StarWars

Take Uber-long baths.... wonder who she gets that from!? lol


And generally be happy... though he is starting to practice being on hands and knees and bouncing back and forth.

"Dream the Impossible Dream!"

I've decided that every mother of young children deserves to get a good long nap every day. Unfortunately life doesn't work out that way.

Usually my day starts at 6am-6:30 and I get to bed around 11:30 or midnight. I get up at least twice during those sleeping hours to take care if Little Li. And if by chance I try to get a nap one of the kids always decides they need me desparately for something.

I don't know about the rest of you, but a good long nap would be heaven.
