I feel like I am on auto pilot. Day in & day out. I always feet tired. I am always catching myself dozing off. I feel like I never get anything done. I feel like I pull a triple shift. I start at 6am-getting everyone up and off to school. I go back to sleep until my Thomas alarm goes off at about 8am. ( E is a good morning sleeper!) "wake up mama, wake up!" Over & over. If I hit snooze, I get, "hungry mama, hungry." Who can ignore a child's plea for food. So the 2 ring circus is under way. I try to get the house done. Mostly the dishes are the only thing I every really get done. We play, shop, clean & do laundry. By 230pm or so, the 3 ring circus starts. By 4pm I am off to my second shift. I relax at work. It is super slow right now! I am home by 130am. Just in time to punch in for the third shift. Pick up as I walk to the bedroom to remove all the babies on my side of the bed. Start laundry, & dishes. Pick up here & there. Shower and night night I go, with very little resistance by 3am. By 6am the 4 ring circus starts again. Really it is not so bad. You kind of get used to it. On weekends, well the last few have been NUTS!!! With moving and Kevin taking off for 2 days & 2 nights. I am really looking forward to this weekend. Just hanging out at home, doing stuff. No plans, nothing pressing. I am off work on Monday :) Some silly holiday. We are planning to take our 4 ring circus to the Fresno Fair Monday afternoon. Hope it fun. Will update you!

Wow, you lead a very full life right now! I have no doubt that all of the work and running around and tiring yourself out is worth it all when you look into the faces of those precious four. :-) Enjoy your day at the fair on Monday!!

What if?? What if I came over on Saturday or Sunday night and hung out with the "Fantastic Four" t your new house, while you and Keith went on a date? I will be open after 2pm on Sat, n 11:30am or so on Sunday. Perhaps I could persuade another ADX pair of hands to help me that night:) What do you say? Come on girls, any takers?

How WAS the Fair? I'm really hope you had a nice, long, relaxing weekend. Your life is really hectic - it makes my "lack of sleep - like 6.5 hours every night" seem like a full night of rest with wht you are up against! Love you Mandy!
