I'm in a rut... a blogging rut.
I haven't taken any new pictures of the kids in days. I'm tired. My husband is working 7 days a week. I'm tired. I'm so tired of toddlers that misbehave. I'm tired of being a daycare. I wish I had energy and time to blog... But I'd rather sleep at night instead of blog. What has changed? I don't know.
I miss the days Derek had preschool... and so does he. I think those days will be coming again soon.
I'm tired of loads and loads of never-ending laundry just piling up. Clothes are sitting in the dryer for days now because I'm so sick of folding and putting away, just to do it all over again the next day. I never used to do that.
I'm sick of being stuck at home with 4 kids... it's no fun at all... for the kids and myself. But it's just so exhausting to take them all out. I think it's gotten to me. Can you tell?
I'm tired of thinking of meals to make for dinner, then actually making them, and doing dishes. Then cleaning up, washing bottles, making formula, picking up after kids. Oh how I want a vacation again.
That's all... I think I've complained enough. I feel better. I know I'm not alone. Being a mother is the hardest job around. Being a full-time babysitter to a 4th child makes it even harder. Just wanted you to know why there have not been any new posts from me. Maybe you'll get one this weekend.
I wish all you stay-at-home moms a good week!

Kelly,
I had to wince a couple times at your post. Poor thing! Greg is a wise man, he has always said that he is so happy he gets to go to work! Staying at home to raise your kids is indeed the hardest job in the entire world. But....it is also the most rewarding. It WILL get better.
Love ya!
I know what you mean, with the kids cut in half of course. I don't have four, I only have two, so you got me there.
It's so hard to watch kids all day long and take over all of the house chores and cook, etc. etc. It's even harder when your hubby is working 7 days a week, mine was doing that for months and months and he's finally had the past two Sundays off so that's been nice. You start to feel like a single Mom with the hubby gone so much. I hope it gets better for you!!
Aww Kel, I'm sorry it has been so tough. It really is the hardest job out there! Hang in there. Let's plan another girls night!!
I hear ya! good luck lady.
I so get it. I find myself jealous of my husband who works full time while getting his PhD. I feel like I'd trade places with him in a heart beat. But whenever we talk realistically about me working or going back to school...it reminds me of all the reasons I stay home. There really are some benefits. It's just hard to remember them from day to day.
By the way...I keep forgetting tell you...I have a kid with a lazy eye. He's seen a few dr.'s they all say it's not as problem. He passes every eye exam perfectly and truthfully, he seems to be growing out of it.
