My Feet Hurt....

Rundown of the last 24 hours:

9pm: Still working on VBS stuff getting ready for tomorrow

11pm: Went to bed

12:30am: Still can't sleep so I take a little Melatonin to help me fall asleep (no I don't do this often and don't judge :)

1:30am: Wondering if someone secretly replaced Melatonin with little capsules of crack!!!!  Still no sleep!

Sometime after: Fell asleep

6:20am: Alarm went off, hit snooze, but Blake apparently didn't want to hit snooze and started wailing!

6:25am: Got up, got showered, got kids up, got sister up, got kids ready and got out the door by 7:45am

8am: Dropped Hunter and Blake off at Nana's and picked up my niece and her friend.

8:15am: (My niece is SLOW) Got to the church and the chaos began.  Trying to do a bazillion things for a bunch of people needing something (that's ok though), greeted parents and tried to socialize a little followed with bouts of mass chaos.

9am: VBS starts and my heart is happy.  I looked out at all the kids singing and doing the motions and it brought tears to my eyes knowing that they were having fun, and learning!!!!!

12pm:  VBS over after lots of questions and worries about whether I was doing it "right" or not.

12:30pm: Get kids home and make quesidillas- attempt to keep the 18 month old from falling asleep in his food.

1pm: Try to get Blake ready for nap while Cole, Hunter and Myles whined about when we were going swimming, trying to get their swimsuits on, lotioning them up with sunblock, getting them towels, yadda yadda.

1:15pm: Blake is asleep, kids are in the pool, time to clean!!!  Cleaned the house in peace.

1:45pm: Went outside and said forget all of the stuff I have to do and dove in the pool with the boys and Myles!

1:50pm: Became a water horse for three kids that enjoyed riding on my back and getting on their knees and jumping off.

2:30pm: Herded the children up and had them go inside...on the way in Cole had swallowed too much water and puked up his quesidillas and mandarin oranges on the way inside the house while Myles let us know how much she didn't want to take a nap.

2:45pm: All kids out of swimsuits and cleaned off, in regular clothes and went down for a nap.

2:45pm: Worked on the roster and VBS stuff for tomorrow

3:15pm: Showered since I swam and felt like my skin was going to crack because it was so dry!

4:00pm: Started making dinner, woke up Cole and got him ready for his baseball game.  Made pizza for Cole, Beau and Blake (we only had 1)

4:45pm:  Got Beau and Cole off to Wynot for team pictures and then the game

5pm: Woke up Hunter and Myles.  Hunter is not a happy camper when you wake him up so had about a bazillion meltdowns.  I made chicken nuggets and mac and cheese for the rest of the crew.

5:15pm: Got everyone dressed and ready, diaper bag packed, waters in diaper bag....kids out to the car and buckled in (may sound easy, but this is a big task!)

6pm: Got to Cole's game where he did AWESOME at!  So fun to watch him play

7:45: Left Wynot and got to hear Myles' sing BINGO all the way home and then make the ehhhhhhh sound while driving over the bumps on the gravel road.

8pm: Bathed all 4 children, got them ready for bed, read them a book and laid them down.

8:30pm: Started cleaning the house and doing dishes, sweeping the floor, etc...

9pm: Worked on the closing for tomorrow that I get to do (even though it makes me want to throw up in my shoe.

10pm: Sat down with a glass of pink moscato, played on FB and am now writing this blog wondering why in the heck I am still up and not asleep :)

Whew!  Now that I just realized all I did, I'm going to bed!...Was going to add pics, but internets being dumb, won't upload...Deal with it! :)
