Not that 333 actually represents anything especially meaningful, but it does seem like a ridiculously high number of weeks to have been doing this. When I started I only had ONE KID.

Sunday:

LAND SHARK

Just a few more sink baths before he’s big enough for the real tub

Adjusting my camera, my Sigma Art is still on point

Monday:

And THIS is the grocery store I just finished terrorizing!

Make-up storage

I am officially just an armrest

Tuesday:

Snow Day waffle assistants

Doing some journaling

My husband thinks he’s funny or something

Wednesday:

Not quite spring yet

Library visit

She would have just stayed until they threw her out

Thursday:

Adorable

Linc pretending he’s a big kid

Ignoring the mess because sometimes you just have to

Friday:

Find the hidden toddler

Babies love babies

Linc took 800 photos just like this one

Saturday:

My spring banner is missing it’s flowers. Because children.

Sittin’ baby sits now

Cards and taco dip

Since today is only Friday, I’m now caught up on my weeks. I’ve started putting together stuff about our Disney trip already (the one we aren’t even going on for several more months) because I don’t want to forget all the sites I’ve found super helpful while we’re planning. But reading other people’s vacation recaps is my new favorite thing, so if you have any – or follow someone who has been to Disney and written about it – drop me a link. I could seriously read about standing in line to meet Anna and Elsa all day.

This morning when I got in the car to go to a session the temperature said -3. Not 3 degrees below freezing, 3 degrees below ZERO. It barely warmed up during the day. Our furnace is struggling to keep the house warm and I really wish I never had to leave my couch nest of blankets ever again.

Sunday:

Nursing break during Mardi Gras Sunday at church

Evan really liked the parade

Visiting a friend on the maternity ward

Monday:

Checking out the snow

THREE CHILDREN playing trains together

Linc feels the same way I do about crunches

Tuesday:

Eating candy because his mother is a sucker

He says he’s ready to go play in the snow

No problem loving his own face

Wednesday:

I DON’T CARE IF IT’S SNOWING GO TO SCHOOL

There WAS a cat sitting back there

*ALMOST* 100% on the sight words!

Thursday:

BRB Googling flights to Hawaii

Naptime friends

Celebrating Daddy’s birthday

Friday:

Lincoln-date at the carousel

And at Red Robin (YUM)

And then my Valentine’s came early!

Saturday:

God Bless iPads so parents can sleep in

These two *heart eyes*

And these two!

LOOK AT THAT I GOT MY IPHONE POST DONE ON SUNDAY. I’m very impressed with myself. Now I’m going to go find some more blankets to hide under because it’s negative something degrees again and I do not like it. Even my winter layer isn’t keeping me warm anymore. Maybe I should eat another piece of that leftover cake from E’s birthday.

Because that seems like a much nicer option than cleaning up the house the kids trashed when they still have two days before they go back to school.

January is just crawling by. It’s dark. It’s cold. The kids are making me INSANE every second they are home and not involved in a structured activity. They won’t stop torturing each other but they refuse to be separated. I feel so much sympathy for my own mother, since I’m pretty sure I was EXACTLY the same way with my sister as a child.

Sunday:

There was a thunderstorm, so Caroline tried to help Brutus be less scared

Frozen Monopoly

Linc cheering for the Golden Globes

Monday:

SURE FINE GO PLAY IPAD JUST STOP WHINING

Literally hiding from the whining

Judo time

Tuesday:

Babies who are awake at 7 have to come to the cold bus stop

Dentist sunglasses

Thank blankie is the most disgusting thing I have EVER seen.

Wednesday:

Loves swim

Love hoodies

I ordered this dress-up from China and it came in less than 2 weeks

Thursday:

Tiny sailor boy in his bunk

So cold, but so snuggly in his fox suit

By Grabthar’s Hammer, you will be missed

Friday:

Friends let friends eat their extra waffles

Piano lessons

Bored at the very busy grocery store

Saturday:

2 am. Baby screaming in my face while I try to watch Friends. #blessed

Super happy about her baby oranges

OK, I guess comforting his crying sister means he isn’t THAT much of a jerk

I have my first photoshoot of the year tomorrow and there is SNOW on the ground. I don’t know if my clients are super thrilled but I sure am. It’s going to be gorgeous. But cold. Super cold. So I plan to spend the rest of the day (no school!) hiding under a blanket while my husband (no work!) keeps the children from killing each other. Because that is what I do on the days HE has work. I AM REALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO IT.

It’s really cold. I have a lot of feelings about it being so cold, but they’re all very negative and I’m trying to remain upbeat. But basically, eff this effing weather and eff you January I hate you why can’t it be effing June already?

Sunday:

As if he didn’t already eat enough, now he thinks he should get PEOPLE FOOD too.

I mean, look at those thighs.

Kids these days with their selfies.

Monday:

She insists on greeting her bus driver in french when she wears her “french hat”

Really impressed with the post office

This was the highlight of their day. Evan wants to know if he can wear Linc all the time.

Tuesday:

Before…

…neglecting the children during…

…After. It still looks mostly like that. One whole week!!

Wednesday:

STILL COLD

Let’s play a game called: Whose baby is in your lap?!

Irony: That wrap I’m wearing probably could have paid for the plumber to fix my dishwasher. BUT I’D RATHER DO IT MYSELF AND HAVE THE WRAP.

Thursday:

It’s a little staticy in our house

SHUT UP DON’T MOVE

So…basically I’m done here?

Friday:

We tried to wait outside for the bus

But gave up and stood inside staring out the window instead. Well, I stared. Linc continued to think he’s people.

Pretending she’s at a cafe

Saturday:

She’s got a teenager attitude – sure, you’d make a good seat, whatevs.

He ordered celery, so I let him order red drank instead of milk

And we out!

Last week was our first week back at all our activities…and yet I completely forgot to go to them. We just skipped swim class. So my goal for this week is to make it to all our appointments and classes and activities and dinners and stuff. If you see me on Wednesday and my hair looks like crap, you’ll know I’ve already failed, since my hair appointment is TUESDAY.

And someone please fix this weather. Ok, good talk.

Today’s surprising news: I’m not dead! I was certain I was about to be dead most of the weekend, thanks to the fountain of snot both coming out of my head and totally blocking my sinuses. If you’ve ever tried to use a netti pot and had the water come out your eye balls, you know why I was convinced of certain death. Today I am both not dead and well enough to be both hungry and bored, which is my normal state.

Sunday:

The most amusing game of duck, duck, goose I’ve ever witnessed.

Dinosaur heaven

It’s the moooost wonderful tiiiiiiime of the yeeeeeear!!!

E finally got to eat his birthday cake

Thursday:

The only family member still excited about snow

Snow days are exhausting

Friday:

The inmates are running the asylum.

CABIN FEVER

3 year old bath toes are cuter than mine

Saturday;

Trying to remember what a day WITHOUT snow looks like

If I HAD to be sick and unable to get off the couch, at least I picked the weekend House of Cards was released to do it.

Blushes judges me, but I finished season 2!

Today my goal is a) brush my hair and b) leave the house. I got (a) done at noon and I’m hoping to get (b) accomplished by going to see The Lego Movie later. Then maybe I can tackle harder things like “make dinner” or “unload the dishwasher”. I’m not pushing myself.
