Just can't win today

Well it's spring break for my kiddo's. Yesterday I took them to an indoor waterpark. We were there from 10:00-4:30 and except for a break for lunch and a small, I need a drink break they were in the water. So they came home both were acting really tiered I was thinking that this morning they would sleep in. Wrong I heard DD dancing and singing but it was still dark out and to confirm how early it was I peaked out my eyes and DH was still in bed so ti was EARLY. I tried to ignore it and well it must have worked because the next thing I know is I hear the cat throwing up on the bed next to me. (I know gross!). I get up and take care of it. Ask the kids when they got up DS announces 5:10 Now they get up early for school but not that early! Now about an hour ago DD and I were making pink powder puff crunch and she is mixing the chocolate chips to see if they are all melted and gets a little carried away and sprays me with chocolate. Now I wasn't wearing a apron and well I have on my new top. You know the one I like and was hoping that it would be July before it got ruined!!!

Just had to vent. Now back to regular scheduled programing....

Ugh, the worst is cleaning up from the cat...

I've been trying to keep my kids busy this week while they are on break, we've been to Rainforest Cafe, bowling birthday party, today we went to my gym to swim.....but i'm exhausted and it's only wednesday. It's great having family time with the kids but it's also tiring. Hang in there, just a few more days to go.

You should try homeschooling! Every day is like spring break! Meaning that they're home with you of course.

That recipe looks delish too! I'm going to try it with my girls. Thanks!

That's why I don't homeschool!
