Missing: 28 year old brain.....

belongs to a mother in New Market- she goes by the name of Drea.......

My goodness! I knew that motherhood wasn't a walk in the park- there were going to
be moments- but I wasn't prepared to have the brain span of a two year old!!!!
I am so forgetful that half the time I literally cannot complete a phone conversation that I initiated because I forget why I even called the person to begin with. These kids have zapped all my good brain cells- I can still function- but my communication skills are going down the drain!!!!! I was heading home Saturday morning, after dropping Kaylee and Kyle off with Granna so that Kaden and I could get ready for a birthday party that he was invited to, when I get this call "Hey! What are you doing?" "I am almost home- gotta hurry and get ready. Does that party start at 1 or 1:30?" " Ummmmm... it started at 11." *PAUSE- my clock in my car says 11:55* "Are you kidding me?" "Ummmmm.... no. We were worried when you didn't show up and we were calling to check on you" Told you it is nuts! So a big "I'm sorry" to Miss Ella Blaire! Kaden would have loved to come but his mom obviously forgot how to read an invitation in order (it said 11-1.... my brain only saw 1)

I would love to be the mom from "Leave it to Beaver" with it all together all the time- but for me if I get it half together half the time I am doing pretty good :)

OK- now that I have once again clarified to you why I am so insane... I will move on to another subject before I give myself a complex......

We did go out for Marquetta's birthday (I remembered that one lol) We went to Cheddar's in the pouring rain and waited for 30 minutes to eat- that was fun! I had never eaten there- the food was good but not as outstanding as some had mentioned. The prices were good though- really good considering we didn't even pay for JD's food b/c he sent it back because it was nasty. The kids were all 3 being moody- which causes a moody Mom and Dad. We have had more pleasant meals to say the least. Granna enjoyed it- and loved her new picture frame and her petit-fours. She is easy to please :) Emily took pictures so I don't have any.

Speaking of Emily- I was browsing through my posts and I don't think I ever said "YAY!!! Chad and Emily are having a baby!!" I can't believe I haven't blogged this!! She is due April 4th (I think) and we are super excited. Kaylee wants another girl in the family and since Stacie is having a boy- she is hanging on to hope that Em's baby will be her own little playmate. I have this feeling that she will play "Little Momma" to whatever it is!

pics of kids on our way to church (every post has to have a pic of some sort- random as it may be :)




OK- the dryer is calling me and I don't think I can ignore it any longer! Happy Happy Monday!!!!!

Hey, I usually forget WHO I've called before they even pick up the phone, let alone WHY I called them! LOL!

Oh, and if you find your brain, ask it if it's seen mine!

Everyone knows I'm right there with you!! I never make it out of any door without having to turn around and get something I forgot.....that doesn't count the millions of times I've had to stop and buy diapers, milk, etc. because I can't ever get all the right bgs packed at the same time!!

I'm a little worried though that the 28 year old missing brain could be replaced by the 65 year old one that cans.......hummmm.....
