Can't a Girl get a Shower?




Well I am writing to tell you about my little rascal Xander and his conspiracy against me. For some odd reason my kids (especially X-man) will not allow me to have two minutes to take a shower during the day. I either have to take one at midnight or get up way early (which rarely happens) in order to smell clean. Today for instance I got up early to sneak a shower and much to my chagrin my kids heard me and came running. I had no choice (I stink) but to get them breakfast put on Dora and make a run for the shower, thinking they would be okay for two minutes. I could hear Xander banging on the door most of the time and so I didn't think too much was happening while I was in there. I came out of the bathroom to find a few surprises though.
Kennedy had helped herself to more cereal and had it all over the floor, and Xander had crawled up onto the counter and dumped an entire box of goldfish crackers all over the counter and the floor.
I just don't get it! Two minutes I swear! Anyway I had to laugh and of course take pictures of my little rascal. I know now that I will probably stink for the rest of their childhood, or until I can figure out a better way to keep them entertained.

found your blog. Jared said he ran into you and at the hospital...in fact I think he was trying to call you to get together. You must be screening his calls. :) Your kids are adorable.

Kristi-I swear that is the Nielson in them, not the Poulson-My children were perfect angels...
I remember cleaning my kitchen until it was spotless and leaning over the counter and reading the paper. In just two seconds I turned around and Emily had gotten into the flour drawer and climbed into it! She was throwing it up in the air and it was all over!!! Needless to say, we moved the flour drawer! Xan Man is still the cutest little bug I've seen!!!
If you have had enough of him-Grandma will take him anyday!!! Love you tonz-Mom
