what a crazy couple of days it has been!!

yesterday was a lot of fun, although it was busy, busy, busy!! first, carla and her friend kim stopped by for a visit.... then, about a half an hour after they left, sharlene, silas, and jazlyn were here... then, 15 minutes after they left, ja's mom rang up! so, it was one of those non-stop days, but much fun at the same time. i don't think that sharlene and i finished one conversation that we started! and, i should have never gotten out the train. one train, three kids?? you do the math.


then, this morning i had my post partum support group over at the family centre here in town. it starts at ten, which is a really decent hour when you have kids... and since keyzia usually has us up at 8, it's never too much of a problem, except of course the usual hectic getting ready to go anywhere stuff.

but, i was playing the "just ten more minutes" game this morning. you know the game, you look at the clock and you think, "ahhh, ten more minutes with my eyes shut isn't going to matter." well, let's just say that this morning it did matter!! ephraim was in bed with me, and i closed my eyes while he was nursing. the next thing i knew it was 10 to 9!! we had 40 minutes to get up, get showered, get dressed, have breakfast!! i had a brief panic moment... considered skipping mygroup (but only briefly!!), and then got my act together.

ephraim and keyzia both had to wait for breakfast until we got there, and ephraim had to cry a bit in the swing while i got ready, but we made it, clean and dressed, and virtually tear-free. keyzia was awesome. she actually co-operated, even though the poor kid must have been starving!!

but, it was well worth going. it was a great group today, and we watched this fabulously hilarious video.... good stuff, good stuff!! humour is definitely the best medicine!

then it was off to visit rebecca and abigail (ephraim's "fiancee") after keyzia's afternoon nap. they are only 6 days apart, and we have jokingly taken some "engagement" photos of the two of them together. i don't know though, they sure do make a cute couple!

so, while it was an incredibly busy day, it was good nonetheless, and hey, survivor is on tonight!!
