WHAT WAS I THINKING?!?!?!

Ok, so my wonderful mother came to stay with me for 3 weeks after Reese was born. It was wonderful to have her here. I didn't realize just how wonderful it was until today. Today was the first day I attempted to go to Wal-mart by myself with all 3 kids. I have been out a few times, but I have always had someone with me. I took the kids to get there pictures done. I wanted pictures of the 3 of them together while Reese is still little. HOLY MAC!!! First, I left the house in PLENTY of time to get there on time and still feed Reese before we went in (so she would be happy). When I got to Show Low the roads were down to one lane. This took me 10 extra minutes. Therefore when I finally got there I didn't have time to feed Reese. So we hurry in and get the baby changed. When the kids are posing the baby starts freaking out. Then Riley and Raegan are so worried about the baby freaking that they will not hold still. They both start being silly and making weird faces. I was going crazy. The poor girl finally got a few pictures that were ok. But, I learned that I will not be taking the kids out by myself for a long, long time.

I bet the pictures are still cute! It really does get easier- I take mine out all the time now that Em is a little bit older.

By the way- HAPPY BIRTHDAY! I hope you had a great one. Did you do anything fun?

I hear you. I still rarely try to take them all out together by myself, even though they're 10,5 and 3. It does get better, though I'm still waiting for that to come true with Brendyn, he's awful in public!
