I know, I know

Okay so it's been a while since I've blogged. Number 1 I've been on vacation for pretty much this whole month-and believe it or not of all the things to forget I forgot my CAMERA. So there's not going to be any pictures of our vacation because their either on Grandma's camera in Orem, the pictures I developed that are downstairs but I don't want to hook up the scanner right now, or on the disposable camera that I keep forgetting to take to the photo place. So who knows if you'll ever see them...3 kids keep me pretty busy!

Marie takes a pretty long nap around noon or so but we go to the free lunch at the park, stay for a while and usually when I try to put her down after sleeping in the carrier for about 2 hours she doesn't want to. Plus it's already afternoon and there are other things I've got to get done like laundry, organizing and figuring out dinner. I really need to learn how to make the crock pot my friend-hopefully I'll get there soon.

Okay I started this yesterday Marie started crying, today she's not taking a long nap and she's probably going to interrupt again. I'm not going to post for a while because I can feel a cold coming on and I know I'll be hitting they hay fairly early for the next few days.

Karen Buxton...we have ants in our kitchen..after we see you we come back to that-I blame you~! Just teasing but I know that happened to you too--I finally bought some stuff for that but who knows when we'll get around to spraying that, even though the ants drive me crazy and I'm paranoid about everything-it's the energy that I don't have and it's not as much of an emergency for Eric..we'll see about that.

So this is my cheesy blog entry-sorry to all those that enjoy my regular blogging someday I'll get back to that...some day..

You'll have time soon. you'll get into a rhythm, they'll all get older, etc. etc. Be patient!
Sorry about the ants. You need to stage some ants in something Eric will open in the kitchen. Bet he would get w/the spraying then!
It's sad about pics being less available. Hard to remember the film thing!

Ok, you are scaring me....am I going to be ready for 3? :) At least Jake will be in Kindergarten by then.

I LOVE using the crock pot. I do it all the time and its just so nice to have it all done in the morning when the kids are happier and not worry about it in the evening...dinner is just ready to go! I have a really good crock pot cookbook with a ton of recipes that are now our family favorites. I can't remember the title right now, but I can tell you later if you are interested.

Well, ditto to what your mom said. Things WILL get easier! You need to give YOURSELF some time to adjust as well.
Ants...our pest control guy suggested spraying with glass cleaner-it controls the ants without getting nasty stuff all over your house.
And finally, crockpot. I've never done well with "crockpot" recipes. I do better using the crockpot to simplify a meal. So, for example, if I"m going to use something with cooked chicken in a meal for supper, I cook the chicken all day in the crockpot. Then throw it into the recipe. It's another thing to wash, but in the end, it saves me more time and it's more convenient, since I don't have to stand by the stove for 20min, etc. So I look for ways that I can use my crockpot to simplify my meal. HOpe that helps!
