Another Friday

Well yesterday was definitely a LONG day! It started out with getting everyone dressed and fed and out the door at 10am. Gabby had dance class and it was observation week, so I didn't want to miss it. It is very difficult to attend each week with the twins since at two years old they are very busy and not interested in just "sitting and watching". Class was okay, but not great. The twins were running around and I had to keep them out of the class while watching from the window. The other moms were inside the studio watching. At the end of class Gabby kicks off her tap shoe and it flies through the air hitting her bff in the mouth! She refuses to say sorry right away so I end up being "mommie dearest" screaming at her and them while the other parents look on. It was so frustrating and exhausting! Some days just make you want to crawl in a hole...

Frustration

Being the mother of multiples is an exhausting adventure. My four year old is a constant mental challenge because she is too smart for her own good most days! Plus it doesn't help that we are both very strong and very similar personalities. My two year old twins are going to be the death of me! Right now I am physically exhausted from them. They are in constant motion and the stage of non-stop talking too. My son (the twin) is all boy! He is running, jumping and climbing everything in site, including me!!! I need some sort of outlet for him that doesn't cost an arm and a leg. His twin, Maggie, is also very energetic, but not to the extent that he is. Instead she is a complete chatter box. I feel like by 4pm I could just completely check out. The bad news is that it is only 9am and I am already there today. The good news is that I leave tomorrow at noon for the whole weekend by myself (with friends though) to Atlantic City!

Cumpkin pookies

So my husband is going through some recipes looking for a specific one and comes across a recipe for pumpkin cookies. Gabby shouts "I love cumpkin pookies!" Ahhh the joys of the mixed of language of children. Another such example is apple pie. My younger daughter (the twin) Maggie loooooves butterflies. She calls them apple pies! It is so cute everytime she says it.

Another early morning!

Good morning all. I'm not quite sure how to start this other than to say I just wanted a place to vent and also to write down those unforgettable moments. So here goes....
Mama Mia is an ABBA song that my 3 kids love to dance & sing with. Then the girls started to call me Mama Mia! So I thought it was cute and that is what I decided to use as the name of my blog!
