okay yesterday i didn't blog b/c one i didn't take any pictures and two i was just plain tired. We went to the gym yesterday and after i am done working out i shower and then get the kids in their swimsuits to to swimming, well when i went to get the kiddos dressed i realized that after packing two different suits for the girls i had two bottoms of the one. so we went home where i showered, gave them lunch that i had already packed and headed to the pool. I met Pam and her triplets who are almost four there, well we got there around 1215pm and didn't leave until 340pm, my kids played so well right through their naps, so they fell asleep in the car and when we got home we played. Lauren babysat the kids while Pam and i went to dinner, then this am i wake up at 630, i did some laundry, packed the kiddos lunch for the pool, packed a swimming bag, packed my gym bag, and then packed the kids in the car. Well we didnt' last too long at the pool, Emma through a tantrum, hit and kick me, yes my sweet little Emma who was for sale but isn't anymore, so i had to get all the kids and walk up the steps to put her in time out in the car, then when we got back Audrey said she wanted to go home. Now we had a little incident with poop in the swim diapers yesteday, yeah disgusting, so i said do not poop in your swim diapers, tell me and i will put a diaper on you. Well i asked audrey if she had to go and she said no, which when we were getting dressed she peed everywhere and started crying, so we headed home for the kids to take a 2.5 hour nap, that is giant for my kids who luckily will nap for an hour, i had to wake them up. Well Audrey wore panties tonight and peed on the potty a ton one time and then proceeded to pee on the floor 5 minutes later and was crying. i told her i would give her soda if she peed on the potty. and i gave her the Cinderella Barbie, well Emma sat on the potty for 30 min and peed a little and was crying for her Barbie also so i had to give her one. Well poor Christian who has peed on the potty occasionally wanted a Barbie, so Chris got out some of his old firetrucks and gave them to Christain which he loved hence the pics.
so since Pam had surgery i don't know when i am going to potty train the kids. according to triplet moms they say to wait until they are three, other people ask me and look at me like i have three heads which then i politely explain if they think they can do it go right ahead. I would love to have somebody potty train my kids. Hee hee i can hear Christian playing iwth the ladder on the firetruck and he is in bed. sorry i am just scared that i will screw this up and i dont know when the best time to do it is before or after our trip, i mean can you imagine when all three have to go potty right now on the airplane? anyway i am stressing myself out about this and i have no control over it.
Anywho i am reading the Proper Care and FEeding of Husbands and it is very good with good points, and i have come to realize that i piss myself off about people, i expect them to be like me and when they aren't it ticks me off, where i need to accept them for what and who they are. For instance one of my friends i thought was selfish but thats just the way she is and doesnt mean to be like that, i have accepted her so why does Chris little idiosyncrasies tick me off, i need to accept him for who he is. I've realized that men are simple and they don't over analyze everything. I am at the point again or maybe just PMSINg where i evaulate relationships in my life, friendships whatever and am at the point that it is a whole lot of work but it can't be a one way street. So anyway now i am babbling on and on.
Anyway my exhausting day wasn't so exhausting until some lady told me at the pool how tired she gets from just watching me, then i realized this is a whole lot of work but I CAN DO IT ON MY OWN, without help where some people cant even handle one child, and secondly you just do it so i will apply that to potty training when it comes time to do it, I will just do it and look at it like if this is the worst problem in my life i have it pretty easy. Good Night.
Christian making a face, my camrea settings were screwy so it isn't that clear.
Christian running to see what Lexie and Lanie were doing.
the girls driving in the car, well Audrey was driving, actually she is waving so i'm sure she rear ended the car in front of her. 
Christian watching Curious George tonight, i just think the lighting is cool.
christian driving the car, my camera was on some weird settings, i am having a hard time adjusting the aperature and ISO speed, i am having a hard time grasping it and it is hard to tell the color on the screen in bright light.
this is what happens when you skip naps, and you fight over swings for Grovers and Babies, Audrey was throwing a tantrum and Emma came up and told her to stop it and then proceeded to wap her in the arm. LOL. they got a little more pissy after i started laughing.
xt summer. I also bought a new Elmo b/c he had disappeared and then when i came home chris said he was on the couch, he wasn't there before so who knows where she found him. The shirt Christian is wearing is a 4T for next summer but he saw that it had french fries on it and wanted to wear it, whatever a power struggle over a 3.00 shirt isn't worth my sanity. The next two pics are of Emma, she is such a happy little girl, well all of them are happy but she loves to play outside, she is going down the slide in the second picture. The last picture is Audrey, its not to clear but i didn't want to leave anyone out for fear of blackmail someday. 
Christian was playing with his hippo that he had lost for awhile and was just laying on the couch staring at it, by the time i grabbed the camera and got the settings the way i wanted them he was laughing at me. 
this morning i took the kiddos outside b/c i was going to the baseball game later so i thought 930 am it wont be that bad, wrong, it is so humid. so the kids did play i didn't melt from the heat but i sure have one heck of a headache. the girls were riding their bikes this am. the next two pics are cute b/c i gave them popsicles and Audrey went and sat down by Christian, now these two fight like cats and dogs but they do show love for each other sometimes. then i was asked by my friend Cathy to go to the baseball game, free tickets, free food, and free beer but i didnt' drink cause i thought i had to work, and best part it was in the suite so i got to sit in ac and eat some great free food. i brought my camera to get some photos for the challenge and when i went to take a pic it said no CF card, ughhhh. anyway i had a blast and then we were low census finally so i got to take the whole evening off, after working like a dog this past week, i realized i pushed myself a little too much and my kids behavior was showing that mommy wasn't home alot. Christain was a stinker when Amanda and Bill visited, i mean he was wild, the wild that he was when he was on steroids from having an asthma exacerbation. i havent seen him that rough and wild, and frankly i didn't like it at all. I was super embarrassed b/c my child was out of control. HOnestly Amanda i have never seen him like that without steroids and i apologize. so anyway i am going to veg, it is much needed. 
christian was really enjoying his yogurt.
Audrey attempting to surf.
Audrey told Emma to get on her back for a piggy ride as they call it, thought the story was cute, picture is not that great.
