Today just started out rough for us. The kids were just driving me crazy! By my breaking point I looked up at the clock and almost cried because it was only 11:30! I texted Brad and he suggested getting a friend to watch the kids. Everyone was busy and babysitters are all still in school. So I took a deep breath and instead of thinking of packing all the kids in and out of the car as a chore I decided to be grateful that I have that as an option! That really helped.
So then we ran to Smith's and got: prunes for Claire so she'll hopefully poop today and quit being cranky; bubble bath to keep the big kids busy while I'm trying to feed Claire said prunes; a frozen pepperoni pizza to provide sustenance for the rest of us; cookie dough, shredded coconut, and m&m's to make cookie pizzas; super sparkly nail polish to make me feel pretty.
In other recent events I made this beauties stuffed with peppermint marshmallow cream for the ward Christmas party. The recipe is from Food Network, they're called hot chocolate cookies. yum.
Here the kids are helping me bash up the candy canes to put in the marshmallow cream.
And it finally snowed half an inch here, so of course the kids were desperate to get bundled up and play
