Sometimes You Feel Like a Nut, Sometimes You Don't

Trying to get things accomplished with 5 little ones always proves to be challenging.  I have a great plan of getting my task accomplished in [insert time frame here] and then there is reality where I have to add an extra 30 minutes to an hour for the unexpected.  My Mother came over to do to go through the last child's clothes for the Fall today. We are almost completely finished, but man did it take a lot longer than I thought.

The kids had a great time today even with the busyness.  Cooper decided that he was going to be a warrior and created a costume.  He ended up combining 4 of his old Halloween costumes to come up with this.

He was so excited to see this photo.  He is wearing his Dale Earnheart Jr. racing costume, his Buzz Lightyear boot covers, his pirate sword & ties around his neck and his Luke Skywalker belt.

Kindle and Grant are such great buddies.  They were playing kickball in the foyer.

They also went outside and jumped on the trampoline.  We are all enjoying this cooler weather!

Tonight, we had to run some errands.  Grant had to go to the potty for the 3rd time in an hour.  Gunnar decided he was not happy in his car seat anymore.  Celeste was upset because she wanted a book to read in the car, etc.  All I could think of was the old commercial for Mounds and Almond Joy chocolate bars. You know the "Sometimes you feel like a nut, sometimes you don't."  Ha ha
