My Internet is back and Kids are in Bed!

We got our Internet hooked up today... phew! I love it! I have no energy to post pictures though. To be honest I haven't taken many new pictures. Some of the kids, but none of the house. There are still quite a few boxes everywhere. No pictures are hung yet. I have no time to do it. Jason is working about 12 hour days and that doesn't include all the paperwork, invoicing, emailing, quotes, and whatever else he needs to do when he gets home from work. That means I'm pretty much on my own with the kids and it's getting exhausting. I can't wait until the "newness" of his company is over and he gets more help.

I do have to say that I had all 3 kids in bed by 8:20 tonight. A first for me, all on my own. Jillian had to cry herself to sleep for 45 minutes! It made me cry too, but there was nothing I could do. She was fed, changed and fine as long as I was holding her. But I couldn't because James had been crying for awhile already and still needed to be changed and fed. I then took care of James and put him in bed. He cried while I brushed Derek's teeth and read him a book. I left Derek in his room to get James because he was screaming. Derek then comes out to go potty. I was upset at first until I knew the reason he had come out of his room. I'm so proud that he's fully potty trained. So James did cry awhile more and Derek talked to himself for a while as well... but they are all fast asleep now... I HOPE!

Maybe I'll be able to post some pics tomorrow.

GOOD NIGHT

Way to go Kelly! There's a reason kids need to go to bed early! It's called alone time for the adults.

I hope your throat is feeling better.

8:20? You are amazing. That hard enough for any mother, let alone a a preschooler and twins all on your own.

Keep up the good work.
