To Be Honest....

Yesterday I was inspired by this blog and a conversation with a friend about blogging. My friend had mentioned that on blogs - you only post what you want people to see. It's so true.

So I have decided to show you, what normally I don't want people to see. Actually, I don't even want to see. So to be honest... Here we go:

The kids made a 20ft long train track. To Be Honest... They are not supposed to have their "playroom toys" in the family room. It is a rule we usually enforce - today I just walked right by. And guess what - it is still on the floor winding from the tv, through the dining room & into the kitchen! Oh, well. (Oh & G picking her nose)

 

To Be Honest: Garrison at some point took his shirt off & I had no idea. He asked for a snack & instead of cleaning & cutting some fruits/veggies I opened up a bag of m&m's and when he was done I didn't wipe his face (see above). While I was busy attempting to steam mop the kitchen floor I heard him making sounds and turned around and found him playing with the bleach bottle.

You may remember seeing the playroom a few days ago in my Easter blog. To Be Honest... I cleaned it the night before Easter, because I knew we were going to be down there taking Easter morning pics. But, it usually looks like this. And, not because I don't have time to clean it - but instead - I just don't see the point.

Grayson who has been potty-trained for a year and a half now, put on her brothers diaper (backwards & over her panties). To Be Honest... She may be regressing. But I thought it was too funny! Instead of talking to her about it - I laughed, took a picture and let her wear it!

Usually, I would put this picture in today's blog. I would tell you how we had such a wonderful time feeding the ducks. To Be Honest... The ducks/geese would not eat our bread. Both kids were so upset and we went home 5 minutes after we got there. While, both kids screamed in the backseat.

A picture of G & I from this morning. To Be Honest... She wanted me to get up and go downstairs with her and I convinced her to stay in bed with the promise she could play with my phone and take pictures.


To be honest... this is how most of our days go. I plan fun stuff like feeding the ducks & it backfires. I find the kids doing stuff they aren't supposed to be doing (sometimes dangerous stuff). Some days, I don't discipline them when I should. I often don't feed them the right amount of fruit, vegetables, grains, etc. This was our real life today. And To Be Honest... I love these days!
