Oma's in charge! Eeeeek!

I have 15 minutes.  Barney is on.  Snacks are doled out.  Time's a-wastin'.

To say I am tired is an understatement.  I AM  EGGGS-AUSTED!!  It's not because they did not sleep and were up all night.  Nope.  They slept.  But I laid awake listening to the monitor, whispering to Opa, "I don't hear anything, do you think she's okay???"  Memories of bringing home a newborn surfaced....

If you have not had children in the house for awhile, you forget.  It comes back.  Quickly.  And then you remember why God gives you children when you are younger.  It's because you are YOUNGER!!

So far today our list of what we have done before 1 pm:

1.  Breakfast

2.  Changed clothes twice

3.  One load of laundry

4.  Puzzles, saved from my kids - the old fashioned ones

5.  Read stories - several

6.  Found box of cars, LOTS of them - now everywhere

7.  Snack

8.  Watched Barney

9.  Played with telescope

10.  Lost shoes, the remote, puzzle pieces, socks, cars, Barbie shoe

11.  Spilled chocolate milk (see #2 and 3 above) all natural soy

12.  Put ponytails in Maddie and Barbie

13.  Changed poopie pants - twice

14.  Found the Tupperware cupboard

15.  Hid all Stewart's toys

16.  Had Time-Out

17.  Made cookies

18.  Lunch

19.  Had help with dishes

20.  Put on shoes, took off shoes, put on shoes, etc

21.  Pulled out ponytails

22.  Played hide-n-seek in the pantry (I won)

23.  Went for walk

24.  NAP TIME for one

25.  Quiet time for another

26.  Talked to Momma on the phone four times (really she's not worried one bit.)

So, thinking there would be some respite for me I was looking forward to nap/quiet time.  Then Opa came home for lunch.  Then Charles from UPS brought more work for Oma.  Jack got to check out the truck and the squeals of delight and horn honking woke up someone else.....But that's okay we have all afternoon.  AND five more days.....

If I could figure out the camera, there would be pics.  Maybe tomorrow......
