So what's going on at our house?
*My 10 year old asked me why I don't have any chores. I. was. speechless. I truely did not know how to respond to that. But then it came to me. I started naming off everything I do on a daily basis. I think he decided maybe taking out the garbage and picking up the front room before playing on the computer isn't so bad.
*My 4 year old is talking like my 12 year old. He now says "sweetness" for anything he thinks is remotely cool. Which is pretty much everything. I caught myself saying it tonight. Dang kids.
*I have so many loads of laundry to wash, dry, fold, or put away, I don't even know where to begin. It's in the double digits. I hate laundry.
*I have a lesson to do, a YW fundraiser to finish, my room and bathroom to clean (because apparently I don't have any other chores), a really lot of laundry to do, and no motivation to do it.
*Our home in Twin Falls still hasn't sold. And the ecomomy is wreaking havoc on the construction business right now. Kinda scary.
on the brighter side...
*Jaxson is waving now. On cue, even. If he hears the word "goodby", he starts shaking both arms up and down. It's so cute. It makes me smile.
*Thanks to my sister, I have a new book to read. It's called "the mother in me". It's a compilation of stories about being a mom. It's sure to inspire, lift my spirits, and pull me out of these January blues that hit me every year. Thanks Wendy!
*My house is still mostly clean from Gabby's family birthday party. Mostly clean.
*Lastly, I have a warm home, food to eat, healthy kids (knock on wood), and a family who loves me. I am a lucky gal.

I got that one day from Mike when I asked him to do something, he asked what do you do all day? I think laundry is just a check off the list I did some today. It will never all be done, unless you make them run around naked. Lois said now after 40+ years and no kids at home that laundry is eazy so gosh I only have 20 more years and you have a few more than that!
Oh Bonnie! I love the way you write and think. You crack me up. I like the humor between the trials...er....lines. : D
How about an update picture of Jaxson? Would love to see how he's growing!
I love you! I have double digits laundry to do as well, only I am not going to do it today. I am going to CVS for some shopping therapy. ;)
Have a great day!!! Kiss Jaxson's beautifully perfect lips for me. ;)
I too, have so much laundry, its not even funny.. Not just everyday laundry.. Like, I'm waaaaay behind laundry.. I'm trying to catch up, just not hard enough, apparently
It sounds a litle like life here! Hang in there. Spring and Summer are on their way.
I so agree with the laundry thing. It is my least favorite thing to do. Hang in there! Maybe it's time for another girls' day!
Show me a mommy that dowsn't have chores and I'll show you a daddy.
Seriously.
I would have grounded him...:-)
Laundry is a dirty word!! I am with Amber Time out for that little one.. Hope you have a great day stop by next time you are in twin.
Just found your blog. It's so cute! My kids think I do nothing, too. *sigh*
Is it just my experience, or is everyone named "Bonnie" a "Bonnie B." at some point in life? I'm right there with ya sista--with the name, the 5 kids, and all of it!
