Every day seems to be filled with Dani doing things to Abby (like smothering her in a pile of clothes) to make her scream or cry. This usually happens right when I have just sat down to feed Emily or just as I take a dirty diaper off. I don't know why she gets such joy from the shrieking squeals of her sisters mouth but it has pretty much made her mother crazy!
Oh, and the pile of laundry.... that never seems to disappear - no matter how much washing, drying, and folding I do. Go figure!


That was right after Abby painted her face, clothes and a chair with my foundation. (I didn't get a picture because I was already late so I was trying to hurry and get her changed and cleaned up) After I got Abby cleaned and changed and was trying to clean the chair....Dani yells from the kitchen "uh-oh Abby spilled her milk!" I then go into the kitchen to find Abby, in her new clean shirt, laying on her stomach, splashing around in the puddle of milk! As I was cleaning the milk up sweet little Dani was trying to fill her sisters cup up with water and KABANG!!!
By that time we were already late and I was about to say "forget it!" we're not going! But Dani was looking forward to going and she was trying to be so helpful so I just bucked - up and we went late. This was my first attempt to go somewhere with all 3 of my little girls. And the beginning of me being late EVERYWHERE that I have attempted to go thus far!










Notice that she has taken all of my clean wash cloths out of the drawer to wrap her sleeping animals in. Mostly because I need some more laundry to wash.
Another row of toys. These aren't sleeping.
These ones are fast asleep under the 10 wash cloths!!!!! Oh, and Emily is so cute when she splashes in the tub. She loves her baths where she gets to view the different arrangements of toys that her sisters have left for her.
Splashing in the rain puddles.
The girls favorite place to "chill". I have to tell them to get out and shut the fridge all of the time! WHY???
One of Dani's favorite things to do is to open the fridge and take what ever she wants out of it. The other day she had made cookie dough with me and I put the dough in a container in the fridge. I noticed her open the fridge and I said "Dani, no more cookie dough" she didn't respond so I said "Dani, shut the fridge right now!" there was a pause then a "grunt" she slammed the door and said "I'm not a Child!!!"

Hey Melissa! Wow, you are a picture taking maniac! That story about your girls spilling the milk and the water tank is awesome! I think kids have a 6th sense for when you are either on the phone or trying to get out the door, they just can't resist reeking havoc! I love the pictures of your little girl sucking her thumb with the hair extensions - that is hilarious!
I have not checked blogs forever your family is so sweet and we love playing with you even though Parker bites. You had my permission to blog what he did so now no one knows who is the boy who bit Abby unless they read this. You are so sweet to still be Parker's friend! Thanks
Oh my goodness Melissa!!!! Ha ha! I'm totally laughing after reading that! I love that Dani told you she was NOT a child! Save that one for the history books. I can so relate to your story of trying to get out of the house, but it actually does get easier....I think....I'm still finding out! ;) Anyways, miss you and hope you're doing well. You're one amazing Mommy and your love for your family shines through.

Melissa, Your girls are so cute and funny! It sounds like having 3 is a lot of work! Hats off to you for still walking out the door after that eventful morning! I thought it was so funny how Dani put a pound of turkey on abby's tray! ha ha ha! so funny! I also love the hair extensions that everyone wears for abby! soooo funny! You have the cutest family!
I have looked at this post and the pictures lots of times and realized that I NEVER posted anything:(. So I must say I love this post and pictures it really shows what a day is really like in the life of a mom with her kids. People always blog about how "perfect" their lives are and their kids are( I mean I know your kids are perfect:) but kids will be kids and I love how you take pictures of it all so that you can show their future boyfriends(later on) that they used to sit in the fridge and all the fun the girls had growing up. Your an amazing mom and a wonderful friend. Thanks for all the great laughs:)
