***Nathan's first photo shoot- he can sit up, crawl, and has two teeth***
I am so worn out!! I think I could sleep for a week straight and still not feel rested. It is hard when I watch the kids continuously, instead of having 2 days off. Last week, I worked from Monday through Saturday, but on Saturday, it didn't end until 6PM. My only day off was Sunday, and then, I had to get other stuff done that I couldn't get done while all of the kids were here. Plus, the mystery shopping, and Amazon & Ebay sales... Today was particularly bad because I thought grandma Leslie was coming (the last time she came to our house was over a month ago). She had at first said Wednesday and Thursday she would come out. Then, she said that she couldn't do Wednesday because she had to take someone to the doctor... Then, I got an e-mail saying that she would be here on Wednesday. Wednesday (this morning), I found out she would not be coming. She told Jaden that she would come on Thursday instead. So, I called her last night to make sure she was coming, and she's not. I say all of that because I think that is the only way that I was able to keep my sanity. I knew that she would come every now and then, and I would have ADULT contact. Plus, the kids love to hang out with her, which frees up my lap. It gets tiring when I am in the house changing 25 diapers, putting kids in time out, feeding them breakfast, lunch and dinner plus 3 snacks, and having them not all take a nap at the same time (so not even a 5 minute break for me- no lunch hour or rest period). I wish so much that I could just stay home with my two kids- Without having to watch other kids for so little money. Nathan is 7 months old, and today he took 2 naps for a combined total of less than 30 minutes!! I just want to sleep for a long time...
