Don't let them fool you...

They may be cute and smiley here... but I have been having some of... THOSE days!
Seriously. Last night we had one of Jordan's reps over for dinner because he was locked out of his place. WELL I haven't had a chance to go shopping yet... (i miss my stroller!) so I was using what we had to whip up something random (it actually turned out really well, thank you very much!) So while I was making dinner Jordan got a phone call ...work related, had to take it important... BUT Makayla wanted to play with him, so when she was locked out of the bedroom so Daddy could talk in peace, she started crying. That of course got Oscar going and when I opened the oven door to see if the Chicken was done the smoke alarm went off!

Yes. That's right. 2 screaming kids, a smoke alarm going off, Jordan telling me to quiet the kids down, and dinner smoking out of the stove!
All I needed was a dog underfoot howling at me for it to be THAT kind of dinner!

I was too short to get the button that turns the smoke alarm off... (why do they put them up so only shaq can reach it?) so i kept jumping and Makayla kept jumping with me! :-P

FINALLY the smoke alarm turned off, dinner was ready, the kids were quiet and Jordan got off the phone. Bet THAT rep is not coming back for dinner again! HA!

It definitely makes me REALLY scared and anxious/nervous/scared to start working again.
I'm hoping everyone is ok with texting! Because I have some LOUD kids!


But I still love my kids.
Who wouldn't?
They are adorable!

Even when Makayla is putting stickers on Oscar's head.

And even when they are both screaming at me, they still are really cute!

That's what I tell myself anyway.

  1. Ah man! Don't you just love moments like that? I can't believe that all happened at the same time! So, my thought is why didn't that other sales rep help you out a bit?! ha...
    Anyway, what are you doing for work? Are you going to be an OA? Good luck this summer, I remember those sales summers, fun adventures!
