My Monday In Numbers

12-Weeks of summer vacation that we still have left before routine and organized chaos will return to this house.

6-the hour in the morning that Brody has decided that he absolutely must eat. Even though all throughout the school year I had to wake him up to take Cameron to school almost every single day.

250-Calories in my morning Herbalife Shake. The one that I am forcing myself to gag down in some sick attempt to loose this baby weight. Did I mention how much I hate these shakes?

30-Pounds that seem to think that they don't need to go anywhere, regardless of my excuse, "It took me 9 months to get this way, I should get 9 months to loose it". Well, ladies and gentlement, guess what? Brody will be 9 months old this month? Why the HELL won't this baby weight just disappear?

6-loads of laundry that I washed, dryed, folded, and put away over the course of the day.

2-number of teeth that Brody finally did get while fussing and needing to be held.

2-number of kids that I fed breakfast, yelled at to make beds, brushed teeth, combed hair, washed faces, and sent out the door.

4-number of times the neighbor kids rang the doorbell while were were getting ready for our morning. Seriously? Didn't I just say they'd be out when their rooms were cleaned?

1-Mom that can't get anything done except hold the teething baby so she has no excuse but to finally beat Super Mario Brothers with Tucker. I'm a rock star now!

2-amount of times I asked the neighbor kids to stay out of the garage with thier bikes because of scratches on the car.

1-child of mine who is now grounded from neighbor kids due to the fact that she decided it would be okay to ride bikes in the garage anyways

1-dramatic fits that followed being grounded

1-proud Mommy watching same dramatic daughter rock it in her t-ball game later that day

75-degrees of warmth that we have here in Idaho in June. Seriously, this just sucks!

2-number of times I had to take Tucker to the Port-a-Potty at the ball game

0-times Tucker was able to use the Port-a-Potty without touching every surface in the entire structure

85-cold peas, olives, pieces of breadsticks, and peaches that got thrown on the floor at the local pizza join since Brody thinks he is going to only eat big kid food now.

4-times Tucker had to use the bathroom at the restaurant

0-amount of urine that Tucker's bladder apparantly can hold

1-late night trip to the local grocery store minus the kiddos so I can actually think.

8-chapters read with the kids of Junie B. Jones and the Stinky Smelly School Bus

10-hour that is now considered early for the kiddos to be in bed

1-huge sigh of exhaustion as I sit in the silence and check facebook. Will my life ever be boring again? I doubt it...I seriously don't know how people keep having kids. Three kids are priceless, the loves of my life, but the work! And just think, I get to get up and do it all again tomorrow!
