instagram overload

I really have the best intentions to keep up with InstaFridays…and then life just happens. So I’m going to just do a huge Instagram picture dump.

Enjoy…I hope.

~~~~~

This boy makes me laugh everyday and helps me remember how awesome this job of being a Mom really is.

~~~~~

I’m trying to appreciate our Walmart’s effort of having a section of Gluten-Free food.

But maybe placing it on the BREAD aisle isn’t the best idea and then to place it behind a pole just adds to the wonderful Walmart experience.

~~~~~

I truly love LaLa’s hair.

When I am stressed and feeling like I don’t have control of anything I make her wash her hair so I can blow it dry.

At least I can control her hair.

~~~~~

This happens…

On a regular basis.

~~~~~

My drinking problem is a little out of control.

~~~~~

Now I remember why I had all these kidlets.

~~~~~

Rubio’s…how I love thee.

And salmon tacos made the love even stronger.

~~~~~

This is finally happening almost daily.

My body is happy.

~~~~~

I took the babies to see The Croods.

eh…it was alright.

~~~~~

I love everything in this drawer of mine…

~~~~~

Yum!

~~~~~

Fathers and Sons happened.

And no ER visits. That’s a win.

~~~~~

I had a horrible “flu” for a few days. Like lose 7 lbs in 5 days sickness.

It felt good to put make-up on and feel pretty again.

~~~~~

While making Teacher Appreciation gifts I may have consumed too many of these.

And gained back every bit of the weight I lost being sick.

~~~~~

Mother’s Day is very emotional for me and I will be forever grateful for these amazing children that I have been blessed with.

~~~~~

The best part was stealing a kiss from Einstein.

No 13 yr old boy wants to be kissed by his Mom…especially in a picture.

~~~~~

My favorite gift from Mother’s Day may have been the card that LaLa made:

I’m so glad I’m not poo!

~~~~~

School is almost out. Four days left.

I hope we survive these last four days.

~~~~~

It was time for the kidlets to go to the dentist. I always take them all in at the same time. We kind of overrun the dentist office.

Four kids had great check-ups and made it in the Cavity-Free Club. Ham and I will be making another visit to the dentist soon.

~~~~~

LaLa was Star Student in our town.

They invite all the Star Students to a town council meeting to give them the award and they get have their picture taken with the Mayor.

Pretty exciting stuff for our little town.

~~~~~

Roo was the first of my kidlets to make a solar system for school.

What are the chances she’s the last?!?

~~~~~

I started this book a few days ago.

By started I mean I put my book mark in.

I’ve kind of lost my reading mojo.

I miss it.

~~~~~

It’s almost warm enough for me to get in the pool.

It’s been warm enough for everyone else, but I kind of need it bathwater warm.

~~~~~

Eight years ago I looked like this:

The next day LaLa made her triumphant entry into the world.

~~~~~

Speaking of the Birthday Girl.

I sure love this girlie.

~~~~~

The birthday cupcakes didn’t last long.
