I don’t know how people do it!

I worked yesterday because they needed my help at the hospital. And I worked today for a full 8 hours. Tomorrow is an early start at 7am, because I’d like to get done before noon so that I can go to my nephews 2nd Birthday party. I. Am. Beat! I just don’t know how people work full-time with kids. I commend you – those of you who have a full-time job and are also taking care of your kids.

And in other news, never nuke a hotdog with two kids running around, and you’re not paying attention to the microwave. Or else you get this:

Hot Dog Blow Up!

And then while you are cleaning up the big hot dog mess you created, your toddler gets into the closet and starts trying to get himself ready to go outside at 7pm in 10 degree weather.

T3 getting dressed

And when getting your toddler undressed and explaining to him that it’s too late and too cold to go outside, you realize your 11 month old has crawled behind the couch and is wedged between the couch and wall…

And then your camera battery dies.

Hilarious, I’m sorry being past that age range I can look back and laugh. Some days I am amazed I survived these kids when they were little.
