Overtired. Overwhelmed. Over Easy?

You know I must be busy if I can not find the time to blog.  The last couple weeks have been a complete blur and a true test of my sanity.  With all the Spring yard work and of course the list of projects it is making it difficult to get even the simplest things done.  I had hoped to get more stuff done during the week, but the baby has only been napping thirty minutes at a time.  This makes it difficult to get even the simplest things done since lately he has been extra clingy.  Combine that with a three year old full into the “Terrible Threes” yes terrible three’s not two’s  I am actually finding that at this point I am getting overwhelmed.  Everything keeps pilling up, but even when I get one thing done two others are added to the pile.  The biggest project is entering weekend number three, but is looking great.  I spent 12 hours working on the swing set this past Saturday with the help of a good friend for about half that.  Thanks Mr Handy Andy…  I will be taking some pictures today and then this weekend to have a full article written on the building of the Swing Set.  Yesterday I was able to add two of the swings which made the older boys really happy!

3 Year Old Not Listening…

Don’t get me wrong for the most part he is very well behaved.  I can take him places without fear of him being a tyrant.  When he gets tired however he has started to not listen and do the strangest things and he is tired a lot lately.  He has never been a good sleeper and still rarely makes it through the night and is typically up by 6:00am.  Combine this and a desire for attention and we have situations where his needs cross the babies needs and the world comes crashing down.  So we are working on being patient, but this is trying my patients as well.

7 Year Old Skin Care…

7yo has major Eczema and we had another dermatologist appointment yesterday.  First with the new Doctor and she is really nice.  Actually the entire office is very friendly and polite.  So now we have piles of lotions to go on 7yo in an attempt to push back a major flare up.
