Well on Saturday I had my first "Wow......3 kids is a lot more that 2 moment"....Well, everything is going pretty good, Yes I am a walking zombie but baby Gus is quickly turning into a little "fatty" and Dax is now potty-trained (thanks to Granny Robin!!) and Cam is being fed a regular diet of the 3 things he will eat! And the boys are being bathed on a regular basis...though I cannot quite say the same for myself ( kind if kidding, kind of not :)
Well, took a quick moment for myself....to use the restroom, came out and immediately realized it was too quiet. (Dayton had just left to pick up his new contacts, so I was by myself.) I discovered the front door was wide open ( Dax got a stool to unlock the top latch) and they ( Dax, Cam and our dog emmylou) were 2 houses down, neither had on any shoes or a jacket--Our dog was smart, she saw me turned around and headed back for the house. The boys saw me and had a totally different reaction...they started sprinting away from me! And with seeing me chasing them they began to see what a fun game we were playing and picked up speed-- Imagine me, no make-up, hair greased up in a pony, not really matching pj pants and shirt with no shoes on either running and screaming after two hooligans! After a full block, my neighbor Judy pulled up with her car just as we were getting to the busier road in my neighborhood and helped me grab Cameron--Dax was still running... and finally I tried some reverse psychology and yelled to him "Bye dax I'm going home" and that changed his demeanor! So we piled into Judy's car and headed home for what I telling them was BIG spankings! But upon getting home feeling like my uterus was going to fall out from running after them--I was too spent to do any real discipline--So first things first I need to start wearing adult diapers cuz' even the time it takes for me to hurry and use the restroom is enough time for all hell to break loose! Oh and a side note Emmylou upon turning around to come home was nearly backed over by someone pulling out of their driveway!
And in closing I am really proud of myself it took every ounce of self-restraint to not go and get a large carbonated soda!! ( with nursing I am not doing any caffeine) So any who just needed to share my crazy day and be able to kinda laugh at it now :) The picture of the two "criminals" is one that shows how anything can be a hat--even a couple of bank deposit bags!

So what you're saying is I'm in for it? Great! Congrats on your new addition. He's handsome...just like his brothers!
Dang funniest story EVER!! Sorry, but the mental picture I got reading that was too hilarious! Also was cracking up over the adult diaper line. So true though isn't it?! I told Taber the other day that no matter what, his job is always easier than mine because at least he can go to the bathroom whenever he wants to! : )
p.s. you should TOTALLY get into running! I seriously had never run more than 2 miles until last January. then I just slowly but surely started adding a quarter of a mile to my runs and before I knew it I was running a marathon. It's a great hobby and a nice way to get some alone time from the craziness of kids : )
Haha! My mom was telling me about it. We finally got Shiloh potty trained but it won't do any good if we still have two in diapers (me and Asher) ;). If you get into running I'll go with you. I want to get into it, too. And I've only ever run two miles, maybe three when I was really into a show that was on. We can go running on Sat. mornings in July...running to yard sales! And we'll push the baby chariot so it'll carry all our treasures (that I can't take back with me on the plane ;).
Sounds like mine and Tay's experience with Dade. Except I would get a cal from the Prothero's saying, "are you missing a son in frog pj's and church shoes?"
