It takes about 15 min. everyday to get grouchy ellie out of bed

Ellie crying about her hair, this is an every day occurance

Elle crying -Oh no there is a bump in my hair

Brinks crying at naptime, she does not like to go to sleep!

My little cling on wants to be held every second at work

Brinks cries at breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

Kbug and Payt like to hit each other and fight (all the time!!!)

Payton basically cries alot over anything he's worse than a girl

Payt threating to throw a highchair at me cause he cant play

Payt pouting that he doesn't like his dinner
So I thought I would keep my camera handy all week and take pictures of my kids at their best, which is usually all day occurances. This last year has been alot harder for me as a mom, and these pictures hopefully will show you just a little about why I am about to commit myself to the funny farm. I know this is probably most of all of your days too, but this is my turn to vent. I am a full time taxi cab driver who is basically in the car from 8:00am to some nights 9:30pm for dance. When I'm not in the car listening to constant fighting, I am at work, listening to Brinklee crying wanting to be held every second, or I am at home having Makaylee slam doors on me, Payt and ellie ripping each others heads off and brinks wining. I don't find much time to eat or go to the bathroom but when I do, don't worry brinklee is right there begging for my food, or handing me toilet paper to wipe! Usually about 9:30 each night I finally get 30 min. to myself and I lay in bed telling myself tomorrow will be a better day, and I won't yell and get upset, and I am so grateful for my kids. Then the alarm goes off and it begins all over again!!And if your wondering why theres not many pictures of makaylees dramatic episodes its because every time I tried she would run off saying she doesn't want anyone to see how she really is! A true dramatic awnry teenager. I love my children, and I am so grateful for them, but some days I feel like running away to a deserted island and living the rest of my life in peace. If anyone wants to join me give me a call! I will end my ranting with a few great quotes on motherhood!
-If you've never been hated by your child, you've never been a mother
-Being a full time mother is one of the highest salaried jobs...since the payment is pure love
-By and Large, mothers and housewives are the only workers who do not have regular time off. They are the great vacationless class
-Of all the rights of women, the greatest is to be a mother

I'm so glad to see I'm not the only mom who loses it sometimes. I'm a yeller too...I'm working on it though. I think you should take pictures of you cute house so I can get some decorating ides. You are about he best decorator I know. I seriously need some inspiration because my house still needs a lot of help. BTW where do you work? Take Care.
Hey, it's nat's sister, nicole. I just started a blog and noticed you on nat's blog. I hope that it's alright that I came to check out your blog. When I read this I just about died! This was my exact day today. A few things different, but with my little one's, whining is constant! It drives me crazy! It's nice to know I am not alone.
Makaylee told me you wanted to get those photos of her! I died laughing! Payton must really be buff to be picking up and throwing highchairs! tee hee hee Tell him to go run to the park and back next time :) Believe me...I'm right there with you. Kaden told me the other day that he was going to go tell all the YW that I'm not as NICE as they THINK I am! ha ha ha Was that a threat or a promise? Just know that you are doing a great job! It's so trying being a mother! But we've been promised great blessings if we can just ENDURE!!! You're such a cute mom I can't even picture you yelling! Love ya- p.s. Where do you work?
So Bry and I are laughing at all of the great pics of your kids! How funny! You really are such a good little mom and take such good care of your kids- I really don't know how you do it! Hang in there! Once you're out of this stage, I'll be in it, and you can sit back and enjoy the show!!!
Those pics are classic....you will love having those when they get older. Had alot of fun last night, we need to do it again
I'm am laughing sooo hard right now!! Loved the highchair picture! If it makes you feel any better Skyler tells me on a regular basis that he wants me to die, and Chayse calls me a butthole 100 times a day! Us moms are so abused! LOL! Who knew raising kids would be so hard!
Well Hudson told me the other day that I was a mean Mom for the 1st time ever, I thought I was going to cry. I don't feel so bad now. Thanks for preparing me for what might be to come!!!!!
Thanks for the good laugh!! Isn't it comforting to know that every mother goes through the same struggles, and that we can all relate in some way or another?!! Before you know it, we will look back upon these days and wonder where they went?!! Right?!! Have a wonderful day!!
That seriously made me laugh out loud...I had to read it to Bryce. I mean that in the nicest way :) You are a great mom and I sometimes think I might be crazy to want to be a mom so soon! he he jk It sounds like you need a night to yourself...go get a massage! :)
So funny! I love the pics of Ellie in the bathroom crying over her hair! I used to do that exact same thing to my mom everyday, luckily Bailee has never cared enough about her hair to ever do it back to me! We still have other issues though, Bailee asks me almost everyday if she can go live with her nana because I'm so mean!
