Time? What's that?

So, I really haven't been very good about updating, but honestly....I just don't have the time anymore.
Everyone is doing very well. Our kids are getting so big. Paige is now 4 months. She still has her fussy moments and lets us all know who the boss is. She loves any attention she can get, and often throws a tantrum if she doesn't have somebody's undivided attention. We have resorted to the cry it out method a few times, which tears at my heart strings, but is sometimes the only way we can keep our sanity. A few weeks ago, Chris was up north for a week, and my patience was stretched to the limit. In perfect timely fashion, she was going through some serious teething pain that week while I was flying solo, and was just not feeling well. After getting up 3 and 4 times each night with her, I couldn't wait until Chris arrived back home. And just how my life goes, by the time he came home, she was feeling better. She did make up for all the gray hair she caused that week by sleeping through the night this last Saturday. I couldn't have asked for a better Mother's Day present from her. I was in dire need of a good nights sleep My big girls thought up another perfect gift for me for Mother's day, a picture of all 3 girls together. And I had no idea that they took a picture and had it developed.  They are pretty good to me! I enjoyed the day by having breakfast with my family, and staying home and just spending time around the house getting things done.

Chris and I are also doing  well. He has been working a ton of hours, and  is also busy with softball on one of his nights off.  I am usually running around hauling kids somewhere, or heading to the grocery store with a few kids in tow. In our spare time (ha ha ha) we hope to do some camping this summer in our new camper. We picked up the new toy last week, and are slowly getting everything put in it so we will be ready to camp as soon as the weather cooperates. The girls were very excited for it to arrive, and are even more excited to get to use it in a few weeks. Only having our big girls every other weekend will limit the time they get to camp with us, but we hope to make some really good memories this summer! 

Soon school will be out, and we will be approaching graduation time, and wedding season. Busy Busy! I especially cannot wait for it to warm up so we can get outside with Paige more often. 

Well, I am going to head to bed, so I can hopefully enjoy another full nights sleep, if Paige allows.
Good night all!
