Confessions...

It's been a crazy last 2 days for us.  We just returned from our road trip to Nebraska (which went remarkably well, and I will blog about it later), but it seems I am having trouble getting back into the swing of things here.  Is it just me, or do you sometimes have 'off' days too?

Let's just recap on some of the things that have occurred here in the Follett household in just the past 24 hours.  Yesterday, while at the grocery store (the WORST place to go with 3 'energetic' boys), I set an antsy Gavin down on the ground while I selected some gourmet food for him (jarred peas and carrots, yum).  After choosing the finest foods for my baby, I proceeded to forget that my baby was crawling around on the clean and oh-so-germ-free grocery store floor, and run over him with the shopping cart.  After picking up a crying and bruised baby, I began to cry myself.  Why did I cry, you ask?  Only because I had run over my baby with a shopping cart, spanked bottoms at least 3 times, lost a shoe, forgotten items, shushed loud requests for fruit snacks, knocked over a bacon stand, and could not locate Landon AGAIN.... all in a 2 hour shopping trip.  And I'll have to do it all again next week.

Oh, and today, as I took care of some important business, I found my boys had pulled apart all of the tampons and were using the cardboard pieces as telescopes.  Yes, they were putting my tampons (not used, thankfully) up to their eyes and saying "ahoy, matey"!   Kind of funny, and yet, not.  

Oh, and then Gavin, who I thought was a sturdy enough sitter to sit up in the bathtub on his own (what was I thinking???), was swiftly knocked over and under the water by 2 older brothers who were also in the bathtub.  After some sputtering, he was OK.  Close call, and very scary.  

So is my every day life.  Crazy, yet rewarding.  I'll blog about the rewarding part some other day.  =)   I'm wondering what the next 24 hours have in store for us????
