i think i can...

Well folks, things are about to go into super crazy over-drive around here.  Tomorrow is my last day of summer since Thursday I have training all day and Friday I am going to go move into my new classroom.  I know that things will get easier every day and that we have already come so far in this crazy life of ours, but sometimes I just feel like the little engine that could.  So, on that note...I think I can, I think I can, I think I can....don't give up on me and I'll post every time that I have a chance.

Question of the day: How are you feeling about the end of summer?

crazy days!

Our best friends just found out 4 days ago that Mary got a new job in Lewisville. So 3 days ago, they found a new place to live half way between their jobs. Then life got really crazy yesterday. Mary and I were down in Hillsboro at Carter's Outlet store (whole other post's worth of stories & pictures from my finds there), and Michael calls and tells Mary that they will save a ton of money if they move out before the end of the month....which is....today. So, their precious daughter Addi has been hanging with us, totalling us at FOUR under 3 for most of the weekend. It weird how much easier it makes things to add a child. Sounds crazy, right? But look at these pictures of how much fun Georgia and Addi had together and how busy they were. AND this meant good sleeping for all! Yay!

As you can tell, the girls have used the diapers.com box in every way imaginable.


My e-trade baby, Mary at dinner. This little pretend laptop is a life-saver when we are trying to get dinner done without fussy babies.

Notice jealous Olivia in the background...surrounded by toys in her entertainment center, but no...she wants the ONE toy that Mary has.

Sweet Addi...Georgia's BFF!

Fun in the sprinkler with the big girls, Addi and Georgia...oh yeah, and Holly. :)


This picture tells you how crazy it has been...these are Mary's shoes for the day, and, no, they don't match. I love my bestie, even if she's just as crazy as me :)!


Olivia crawling everywhere, even almost under the couch.

Mary is happy as a clam just to hang out on her belly...she'll crawl when she's ready I guess!


Question of the day: What's the craziest, quick decision you ever had to make?

The link above is to my friend, Candi's blog.  It's funny to think that it seems all twin moms seem to have a sense of "this is what is meant to be" about their twins.  I think having twins makes us kindred spirits.

Question of the day: Who is your kindred spirit?  Why?

I know these girls' kindred spirits...each other!

Diapers!!!

One key to survival with 3 little ones still in diapers in getting a good deal.  Another one is finding ways to make life easier when you can.  Enter http://www.diapers.com/ !  We love love love this website.  We order diapers from them every month for a great deal.

My girls in 1 of the 2 giant boxes that arrived yesterday.
Needless to say, we go through a LOT of diapers each month.  And if there is one thing that you don't want to run out of---it's diapers!  So we keep the closet stocked.  One awesome thing about diapers.com is that it keeps a record of your purchases so that you can very easily re-order in just a few clicks.  Also, shipping is free for orders over $49 all the time, so that means that I don't ever have to try to fit all my massive amounts of groceries and diapers in my grocery cart at the same time.

They also have great deals on clothes, toys, baby gear, like the box says, "everything but the the baby".  We got Georgia's slide for her birthday through diapers.com, as well as this Elmo doll that all the girls love.



Okay, now that I know you are dying to try it...here's some great discount codes.  Just because I love ya!

DIAPERS20PCT  this one is for 20% off of diapers for 3 months for new customers!!!
GET10PCT  this one is for 10% off of everything else

P.S. Go to diapers.com on facebook to "like" the picture of my girls in the box please!
