Stale

My life is feeling pretty stale. After our fun vacation with Chris around its always hard to get back in the groove. And pretty much I don't want to. But like I have a choice. So here my life. Wake up feed the kids. Try and get some kind of small task accomplished before the next melt down and then get lunch on. Clean up lunch put Matthew down for his second nap if we are lucky and then I put a movie on for the kids so I can take a nap. Wake up go to the pool. Which is the highlight of our day since our pool is so awesome and the kids are getting to be such grea swimmers. Love It! Then we come home make dinner with out dad again since he works late every night. Then he comes home and we put the kids to bed and hope and pray they stay in bed. Life is great because between all the staleness every once in a while there is something great that happens.

Well? You can't just leave us hanging! What are these great in between staleness things you are mentioning? You don't quite know what to appreciate until you are awakened by the toilet flooding from one of the kid's late night toilet visits and you realize it is pouring through your downstairs ceiling... Now that is some exhilarating living...

Oh Rachel! That is almost my exact day! Our second car is in the shop and we are at home all day. Fortunatly we have a great pool as well that we can walk to. But that is pretty much it. How hilarious that we have parallel stale lives right not. Let's heat it up girl.

I'm with Jenny. Swimming is the best! Where were you today? It ended up being perfect weather. Ben kept looking for Christopher to walk in.

That doesn't sound all that bad...hangin' at the pool everyday. If only Max and I were so lucky! :) I know what you mean that nothing seems exciting for a while after you've been on a fun vacation. And especially coming back to having your husband go away everyday really stinks. Why can't we ALWAYS be on vacation?! I want Ty to make his millions young just so we can have him hang out with us all day! Oh, and then I can go shopping often too. That part would also be nice.

I guess everyone's life gets a little stale here and there. Life seems to be stale more often when you're pregnant...and I can relate to you there! I wish I had a pool to escape to, or a trampoline
! Love ya

My life seems to get really boring right before I have a baby. I think as soon as we get our routine down, it becomes mundane, and then a big change comes along. #4 should make things really exciting in your home!
