Chaos!!!!!!!!!

...and the chaos ensues!!! About 6 months into my pregnancy, my sweet little angel toddler grew devil horns and began to channel the Tasmanian Devil. Staying home with him has become a chore, Tobin laughs and says "I couldn't do it!". I can't even go into enough detail to explain how he acts, it's constant. He NEVER stops moving. He'll blow through a clean room leaving a trail of destruction behind him, knocked over cups, toys everywhere, sofa decor pillows and throw blankets on the floor, anything and everything out of it's place. Then he'll turn around and give you the most innocent (but very mischievous look) and you can't help but laugh. We also joke that he is a "snake charmer", everyone who meets him says "he's so CUTE", Tobin and I laugh that you can almost see their eyes spinning (like a cartoon character being hypnotised). Anyway...a couple of days before I delivered Audra, my Mom tells me "you know the third child will add enough chaos that it will seem like you have 10, for some reason that third one seems to multiply the chaos 10 times more than the other 2 combined". Thanks, Mom, you couldn't have told me this BEFORE we decided that we had to have another. LOL

Well, it has begun and poor Greyson seems to be getting swept up in the chaotic dust of the two little ones. The other day, I was making lunch for the boys, they were outside playing so I called them in to wash their hands. They come running in the house, Greyson is screaming "Colton stepped in dog poop w/his bare feet". Ok no problem. I took him outside sprayed is foot off, cleaned it up w/some dish soap and got the boys in to eat. I had already fed Audra, she was sleeping in the Boppy on the couch, so I start to make my lunch. Now for the chaos...I start to make my lunch, Audra starts screaming, Colton starts yelling that he's done and ready to get up, I get him up. The boys go back outside, I get Audra settled and try to finish w/my lunch. Just as I get it done and ready to eat, Audra starts screaming again, I go over to check on her just as she starts pucking up the whole bottle I'd just given her. It was coming out of her nose and mouth, then Colton comes running in again w/dog poop all over his feet, this time getting it all over the floor...

Bedtime has become a nightmare! We are still staying with my parents, we close on the house tomorrow (thank God!!), but every night Colton screams his head off for at least an hour after he is put to bed. Now Audra has decided that she doesn't seem to like evenings either! She fusses and cries and wants to eat and eat and eat until at least midnight. Again, poor Greyson is
is practically being ignored (the squeaky wheel syndrome). He's such a good big brother, though.

I don't want it to seem like I'm complaining, I love my babies more than life itself. Tonight, I just started to laugh. What else can you do, I just keep thinking about that country song "You're gonna miss this". I know that one day they are all going to be doing their own thing, or gone and I'm going to miss them wanting me to hold them before they go to bed. Lord know, I miss it with Greyson already. He's too grown up for that. :-(
