I love my girls but sometimes......

So I feel like I have been ran through the ringer this month.  My girls that I love to death have just been trouble makers.  I know it is because I am always saying how well they play together and it is coming to bite me in the butt.  This month McKell has opened the nail polish all 7 of them and her and Kennidee painted my hope chest, bed and floor.  McKell told me that Kennidee opened it. Uh Huh the 1 year old is a genius in McKell's eyes.  They took me bridal bouquet that has survived for almost 8 years and crushed more than half of the rose all over my front room.  They also took the loaf of pumpkin chocolate bread that BJ and I won in a raffle and smashed it all aver the couch and the carpet.  That is just to name a few of our messes.  I don't write these down because I don't love my children but sometimes I think people think that stay at home moms are so lucky because they get to loaf around the house all day.  Don't get me wrong I don't wake up at the crack of dawn but when your kids are up you have no choice but to be up and alert.  I love staying home but it is the hardest most rewarding job I have ever done.  Sometimes I consider going back to work because it would be so much easier.  Someone else would be dealing with the messes.  But, I would hate to only wake them up and send them off to the babysitter.  Bring them home feed them and put them to bed.  I love being with my kids!!  Just in case anyone who is reading this doubts this.  Every once in a while I just feel like I need a break.  Men feel like they need time to unwind when they get home from work but I don't feel like women get that time.  Because when dad gets home it's time for dinner etc....  Okay I am done complaining I just felt like I needed to put my feelings down and be done with them.

Our February

My girls have been getting playing so well together.  Kennidee always wants to be by McKell.  I think it is so cute.

McKell's valentines party at preschool.  They had so much fun but it was chaos to hand out the valentines.

McKell thought it was so fun to get treats for "Balentines".  She is always asking me in it's Valentines again.

I went to the homeshow with the women in my family over Valentines.  So the girls and I went and wrote on BJ's windows after school so that he would have Valentines early.

I love it because, I think coming out of school with other teachers to have his windows wrote on was a little embarassing for him.

My mom bedazzled our condo for Valentines.  It made me smile because it was so like my mom.  A few highlights of the trip - My mom got her ears pierced at the age of 66, I hate the DI and I sat in a changing room for 2 hours while my mom was trying on clothes and we had a birthday party with my brother.  If I get pictures from my mom I will post them.

This is one of those they were playing really great together.  They were being quite so I knew they were in something.  Makeup all over them and my bedroom floor.  I think Kennidee looks like at accident victim.  McKell did a good job on herself i think.  I still like it that they have been playing so well together even though I got to clean up a mess.
