You may have noticed

You may have noticed... That in many of the pictures we post, our house is messy. Yup, it's like a daycare center that never closes around this joint. I got home from work one evening, went upstairs and saw this... gulp. Everleigh had fallen asleep in Craig's arms so he just let the kids play in their room. Alone.

You may have also noticed that Paisley loves to dance. So last week she was more than excited to join Danz Kraze-- a pom and funk style dance studio. She's the youngest in the class, so I hope she can keep up! (She's in the baby blue leo)

You may have noticed that we have twin boys. Boys who are almost two. They fight. A lot. It seems totally crazy and unrealistic to have two of everything...but wow, 99% of the time I wish we did!

You may have noticed that I talk about Miss P being slightly  strong-willed. This week Craig went out to hang Christmas lights up. We all bundled up and joined him outside. Except Miss Paisley Rian had her own agenda. She was insistent on wearing a skirt, flip-flops and no jacket. It was, oh, about 40 degrees out. I begged and pleaded, and then...did what any mom who uses natural and logical consequences did. Yep, I let her wear it. About 2 minutes after being outside, she was huddled up on the grass tugging at her skirt. Weird. She was cold. I'm shocked she lasted as long as she did, but about 15 minutes later she went in and got some tights on.

Thankfully, my children still have a father and I still have a husband. Ugh, I don't know why I watch...scary!

You may have noticed that in several of the pictures I post of Paisley that she has "red stuff" around her mouth. Since the poor thing was 2 months she has suffered with severe skin issues. This, is just one of them. We have prescription medication for it, but it flares up at least once a week. I so wish I could rid of her of all of her skin and allergy issues.

You may have noticed that my children climb on everything. There isn't a surface they haven't climbed on. Here, I walked in to two dogs panting on my counter top.

You may have noticed that we have a fourth child who is growing up extremely fast. She is squirming out of her bumbo seat already, nearly sitting on her own, eating sweet potatoes and green beans, and holy is she drooling a lot. I am confident she is getting ready to sport some new teeth...ah teething...love hate relationship! 

That's it for tonight. Mama had a night out with the girls last night, and my bed is yelling my name! Nothing like a night out to remind me of my age.....
