Jade and Brightyn overnight....

The past couple days have not been exactly fun.

On Friday morning Tessa's girls are dropped off at my house.

Tessa and Ian were going on a weekend trip for work.

My job was to watch the kids all day Friday, Friday night and all day Saturday till about 9pm.

If you think having 5 kids all under 5 is easy...you are wrong.

Lexi screamed when I held Brightyn and vice versa.

Jade threw a fit about everything and stole every ones toys.

Chloe threw too many fits as well.

And it snowed so I couldn't even send them outside.

The night was awful.

I went to bed at 11.

woke up at 12:30 with Brightyn.

Never went back to bed after that.

Lexi woke up screaming.... from molars.

Jade woke up screaming....she wanted her mom.

Brightyn woke up screaming.....wanting a bottle.

Jade woke up screaming...wanting her mom.

Brightyn screaming...I rock her.

Lexi screaming...I let her

I spend the rest of the night sitting in my rocking chair holding Brightyn so at least she can sleep.

7:30 am everyone awake and the day starts.

The next day wasn't too too bad. Lexi did have a fever from teething (I'm hoping) and she laid on my shoulder all day (which made Brightyn sad that I couldn't hold her).

Instead of just enduring my trial, I should have tried to endure it well.

I was a beast and could have tried to make it a fun sleepover for the girls.

It did make me smile when Tallie last night told me she wanting some hugs and kisses...

as we were squeezing each other she said "Now that's what I'm talking about!!"

I couldn't stop laughing.

She stole my line.

I'm not usually the one to let others watch my kids. I always feel too bad. So I'm usually the one with a house full. I especially have never let Tessa watch all my girls. I feel like she already has so much on her plate. And I don't want to add to it.

But I think I want her to watch my 3 ALL day (while TJ and I go snowboarding) just to get a taste. Am i mean? Is that wrong? I think I should start cashing in. Instead of just watching every ones kids...actually start letting them watch mine.

I need a break too.
