UGGGGHHHH

To start out I just wanna say whoever said Sunday is a day of rest is sooo wrong!!! To me Sunday's are my most hard and busy days. I get up in the morning make the kids breakfast, fight with them for 2 hours to shower and start getting ready for church. I get myself ready do all 3 girl's hair and dress them. Fight Brayden to shower and to then to get out of the shower cause he will sit there under the water for 45 mnutes. Fight Brayden to get dressed. Finally get out the door for 1:00 pm church. Wrestle with all 5 of my kids during Sacrament meeting to where I feel like I am in a Boxing Ring. Finally get church done with and finished get home at 4:15ish and constantly get yelled at cause we are all starving and what is for dinner and when is dinner going to be done?? While Jeff and the boys sit on the couch and watch sports after they change out of their clothes. By the time I can change and sit down it is almost 7:00 and I am totally exhausted!! This has been my Sunday ever since January. So yesterday when the kids put me thru this I totally blew up at all of them while making dinner and screamed and yelled at them anytime they asked me when dinner was going to be done. As I look back on it today I am one of the meanest mom's in the world!! Ask Lexi she will totally back me up! Andrew finally helped me cook dinner last night and Lex asked if she could help. I already had CC crying at my feet the whole time and so I told her no. She stomped out of the kitchen saying "everybody hates me and never wants me to help them" I felt horrible then to top it off CC was trying to carry glass plates on the counter to the table and I yelled at her not to touch. She ran off crying saying " Mom you really hurt my Heart, you are making my heart hurt so bad." So needless to say today I am in a horrible mood and feel like the worst mom EVER!! I even threw a fit cause Jeff needed my car today cause he can't drive his until we can find parts to fix his arm that holds the tire on the truck. I yelled at him for no reason when I should of just been understanding and loving. Which after 4 hours I did call and apologize to him. I am just so use to my Monday routine of driving Baylee to school and then going and helping in Brayden's class with math facts before I have to do all my carpool pickups. Sorry if I am rambling but this is my way to vent as this is my way of journaling. Hopefully tonight I can make it up to them when I take them to Classic Skating for family fun night for their school. Then maybe they will forgive and forget. That's one great thing about kid's they don't hold grudges for too long. I do love all of you even when I am in one of my moods. Please forgive me for being a horrible mother this week.

Lexi's Baptism

Lexi and (as she would say) her Favorite Daddy

A lot has happened in the past couple of weeks. Our little Lexi turned 8 and she was Baptized a week ago Saturday. She was so excited. She had grandma Donio (my mom) make her a dress for the occasion. My mom is amazing at sewing and she makes all the girl's blessing dresses and baptism dresses! I joke with her and tell her she needs to start designing wedding dresses next so she can make 3 out of 3 of their white dresses. Lexi was so funny when we took her shopping for her material she would not say one word but would pick out colors and texture to make sure it wasn't going to be itchy. My mom showed her the furry material and she just had to have that so we decided to make her little jacket out of that so if it was cold her arms wouldn't freeze since she had to have a tank top top. We had a great time at her baptism it was fun to have all of the family over for lunch afterward and just hang out. Thank you to all who supported us and for those of you who couldn't make it and sent congrat's Lexi thanks you also.

This is what the bottom of her dress looks like. This is the top of her dress with the Jacket.

Mom you did an awesome job on the dress you are amazing as always. love you.

Kids are so observant!!!

Andrew is soo funny last night we were eating bacon and french toast for dinner and Lexi was pulling all the fat off of her bacon and I asked her why she was doing that and she said cause I don't want to get fat. I told her she had nothing to worry about cause she will always be tall and skinny like a model. Andrew proceeded to tell her that she doesn't want to be a model cause model puke their guts out and starve themselves so they won't get fat. I asked him where he heard that thinking it was from health class at the Jr high he said no from TV isn't that what all models do. Lexi just looked at him and started to finish off her bacon.
