Mr. Mom is throwing in the towel!!!!

I'm going to make this short and sweet.  Lacey has been in Texas for 3 1/2 days, both the boys are taking a nap at the same time (miracle) and I am laying down for a much needed nap before I completely lose my mind.  I honestly don't know how Lacey does it.  From the moment they get up until the moment they go to bed at night, it is constant...I don't know what to call it.  Don't take this the wrong way, I love my boys with all my heart and have loved playing cars with them, jumping on the tramp, running errands with them, watching movies, working at the shop (that was an adventure) etc.  I just have a completely new respect, love, but most of all, ADMIRATION for Lacey.  I understand why you can be frazzled by the time I come home from work as early as 3.  I can understand why you wouldn't want me to leave once I've come home.  Not that you want to "box their ears" and "hang them up by their toe nails" (my dad use to say that to us kids all the time, jokingly of course) but because of the support.  There is strength in numbers.  Anyway, I said this wasn't going to be long.  Here are a few pictures taken earlier today to prove they have survived.  Aren't they handsome?  I did not post any pictures of myself because I didn't fair so well this weekend.  Hurry home dear.  I miss you and love you so so so so much.  Goodnight!



As you can see by this last picture, I don't have much time to clean up after these 2 tornadoes.  Now, goodnight!

Impressive that you kept them alive! You are just used to high schoolers, not a two and 1 year old:-) I bet they kept you busy. Mason alone could keep a person busy all day. I loved the post and pictures.

AHHHHHHH AHHHHH AHHHHH Seth I LOVE this sooo much. I am just laughing. I know thus is why I work part time. I truly admire full time stay at home moms, it is beyond exhausting, tiring, emotional, frazzling, and some days puts you in tears. That's why when I hear "oh I bet your so excited for the summer to be home with your kids everyday". I simply give them a sweet smile and reply "no not really." Im honest! So glad you all survivied! Sorry I couldn't help on Sunday, I really didn't plan on us all getting so sick!

Seth, this is so cute. I totally didn't even think of taking the boys for you. I am sorry that was very rude of me not to offer after what you helped Jesse with (which we still totally owe you for). I am glad you survived but knew you would because your an awesome dad!!
