Sofia watching the pony rides at Thanksgiving Point.
Playing at the Dinosaur Museum.
Rockhounding yes I said rockhounding, as in really looking for rocks. I know, I know! But they really love it.
Hamburger night! A favorite at our house!!
Monday thru Thursday my girls walk through the front door at 3:33 pm like clockwork. And by 3:50 my house is a disaster area, backpacks, shoes, socks, papers, toys they couldn't wait to play with, snack crumbs and probably spilled water juice or milk. By 5:35 when Jeff walks through the front door we generally have it mostly back in order, but by 8:00 I am wondering why I bothered, and we do the clean up thing yet again. (SIGH!) The kids go to bed and I pick up some more, do some deep cleaning and go to bed. (Those sweet girls can mess things up even after they are in bed :) In the morning by the time they walk out the door I am looking around and wondering how we can do so much damage in so short a time.
And yet I find myself at the window by 3:30, waiting in excited anticipation, for my little tornados to return to start the cycle all over again. Its funny what being the mom does to you. I wouldn't trade a minute of the craziness......even for a house that stayed clean longer than 5 minutes.
I am so GRATEFUL to be a mom, and so happy I have my four little whirlwinds!!
