Where Do They Come Up With This Stuff?

My kids are my life!  The only reason I even go to work is to support my family!  Even though life can be stressful with three kids, three and under, we have a lot of fun times around here!

Yesterday I came downstairs after getting the baby down for a nap.  I could hear the older kiddos giggling and it made me smile just thinking of them playing together with their toys.  Then I saw what was so funny!  They were both stark naked!!!  In the time I went upstairs, put the baby down, then came back down, they had taken everything off!  Shoes, socks, pants, shirts, and DIAPERS!!!  I had to burst out laughing because they thought they were so sneaky!  Then I chased them around for five minutes after that putting everything back on!

Then tonight, after I got home from my parents' house, the dog was so excited to see us, she peed all over her kennel.  Now if she was a mini-anything, this wouldn't be a big deal!  But she is a 75 lb Golden which means there was A LOT to clean up!  So I left everything I brought home from my parents, including three leftover cupcakes, on the counter and started cleaning up.  Jack kept asking me for the cupcakes and I kept saying no more.  I threw the dog in the bathtub and told her to stay!  She loves water and will usually just lay in the bathtub until I rinse her off!  I had to run all the garbage out so I left the kiddos and dog inside and ran quickly out to the garbage.  I saw a neighbor and stopped for literally 30 seconds then ran back in.  It was completely silent!  That is NEVER a good sign.  I came around the corner into the kitchen.  The cupcake container was on the ground with no cupcakes in it, both kids were covered in frosting, and Jack was drinking the cinnamon honey butter from the fridge!  I started laughing and got all of that cleaned up then went to check on the dog.  She was NOT in the bathtub!  My soaking wet dog was laying on my bed!!! I had reached that point where if you don't laugh, you just start crying!  I don't know why all this happens when my hubbie is gone!?  He never gets in on the fun!  So now everyone is quiet and in bed and I can go to sleep with a smile on my face!

Here's to more laughing and more adventures!

I would definitely have chosen crying over laughing! You are an incredibly good sport!
