A day in the life of a house full of boys....

7am, wake up, get kids up, have them get ready for school.
Get them off to the bus, clean up their mess, sit down for 5 minutes....
Today I had to go and do my glucose test at the hospital, so off I went to that.
Come home around 10am, my 3 year old is just getting up (Hubby was home). 1 year old is still sleeping (WOW! why can't they do this when I have Nothing to do?? LOL)
Feed the 3 year old, get him ready for school as his bus comes at 11:15am.
Get him on his bus, clean up his mess, and start cleaning the kitchen.
Noon, the 1 year old gets up (Seriously???? Why is it kids do this crap when daddy has to watch them and not for mommy? LOL)
Feed him, and continue cleaning house. Vacuum the floors, couches, clean the tv, dust, wipe down walls, sweep, mop, etc etc etc
2pm, meeting with Parents as teachers with the 1 year old at the house.
3pm, the lady leaves and I get 5 minutes to myself before kids start coming up.
3:15pm, 3 year old comes home, time for snacks.
3:25pm, 7 and 10 year olds come home, more snacks.
4pm, hubby gets a package. It's his new computer speakers! They so graciously packed them in a huge box FULL of packing peanuts.
4:20pm, We have the packing peanuts secure in the box, speakers, out, and hubby and I head upstairs to hook them up.
4:30pm (yes, only 10 minutes later), we walk downstairs.
This is what we get to see.....






Needless to say, the entire box of packing peanuts is no longer in the box. It's is now all over my living room floor, couches, dining room, tables, and kitchen.
To add to the joyful day, we wake up to the following note, written by our 10 year old. This is to inform us, that his 7 year old brother said a bad word. When we asked him WHEN this was said, he said "It was a long time ago, but I'm just remembering now, but he DID say it!!!"

Isn't that just about how it always goes? Sounds just like my house - AND yes, we hate those packing peanuts too!
