2 Hands + 3 Kids = CHAOS
I'm sure everyone that reads this that has more than 3 kids is wondering what my problem is, but my life feels out of control at the moment. Everywhere I look there are piles of "things" that need to be done, toys scattered everywhere, kids fighting, and a baby that cries nonstop when he's awake. AHHHHH!
I went the grocery store today and took only the baby. LUCKILY, he slept the whole time. So, I took full advantage and just slowly walked up and down the aisles enjoying the peace and quiet. Pretty sad, eh?
I really do love my life and especially my kids. I wouldn't want it any other way. It's just been one of those days or should I say several days. I know one day my house will be really quiet and I will miss the noise. That day just isn't today.

Ok, so I only have 2 kids and I feel that way all the time. You have one more than me. You are doing much better than I am! You are a great mom.
Hi Denae! Way cute blog! I stuck with 2 kids because I've seen and heard 3 is the hardest! I know if I had another my Sydney would have a breakdown! She is high maintenence! Things will get better I'm sure!
I think 1 kid, 2 kids and 3 kids is ALL really hard. The piles get to me - I currently have hundreds and can't seem to find a way to get to them. My first child would only stop screaming and would only nap if I went to the store. I spent countless hours walking slowly around stores. I feel your pain!!
I hear ya! Hang in there--it gets a little easier (maybe):)
Amen to that post!! I hear ya! I does get easier as they get older and then some days it is back to square one, life huh!!
I have been feeling the same way. I know I should be grateful for this time in my life but is hard not to be overwhelmed. My favorite time of day is quiet time (or nap time) depending on the age of the child. Regardless it's quiet and I can think for a minute or two.
I feel like I can relate even with only two children. I sometimes feels the chaos with just two...
It's always reassuring to hear that someone else feels the same as me! Yay! I'm not crazy! You are such a cute mommy!
I want to shout AMEN to this one too. It does get better. I relish trips to the grocery store by myself or with only one kid in tow. Who would have ever associated the Grocery Store with a little piece of Heaven!
I hide out on errands too. It will get easier (or you'll just get used to it so it will feel easier). You're doing a great job. Hang in there.
Oh, how I can relate. I think every mom feels this way. I'm starting to get a little scared of what the jump from two to three kids will be like myself. Hang in there, and if you ever want to send the kids over to play, just call. Tyler loves buddies during the day.
I love it when I can get up early before the kids are awake and before Jared goes to work and go to the grocery store all by myself!Just walking up and down the isles with peace and quiet. I always wondered why my mom did that and now I know!
