Splash, I dove into the blogging world

Okay, so I have finally bowed to the pressure to create a family blog. Plus I felt a little like I was spying on all my friends and family when I would read their blogs but they couldn't read mine because I didn't have one. I have websites for each of my boys, but they're a little tedious to update so I'm hoping this will be easier for me to stay on top of updates. But I always swore to myself that if I ever had a blog, this quote from despair.com would have to be on it:

"Blogging: Never before have so many people with so little to say said so much to so few"

Please don't take offense or anything. I just found it hilariously funny and thought it would be perfect for ME if I ever had a blog. If you want to see the actual demotivational poster, you can check it out at despair.com. They have a virtual plethora of sarcastic and hilarious messages for all.

So a quick story to illustrate the circus that is our family. Just before bed, Kevin decided now would be a great time to chase the twins around with a little popper toy. The twins thought it would be a great idea too. So while Steve and I were trying to watch the Sugar Bowl on TV, the three little boys were creating their very own Sugar Bowl in the living room, complete with running, laughing, tackling, and injuries. Troy got hit upside the head with the popper toy on accident, which led directly to bedtime. (Nothing like a head injury to end a good game of popper tag.) Nothing serious though. No blood or bruises today, and no broken dishes either. So it was a good day. Jonathan did end up rubbing the rest of his dinner into his hair but they'll all get a bath tomorrow anyway. I'll end with this example of what I call "every picture I try to take of the three boys together." This is how every attempt at a together picture turns out:

I love that quote! I feel like I am constantly cataloguing everything I do or what my kids say or pictures taken just so I have something for my blog! Very cute, and I am glad to know you caved to peer pressure! You are so weak!

Hi April! I'm so glad you gave in to peer pressure so I can keep in touch. I'm bad at calling people.

Hey April! I want to learn more about the classroom mgmt techniques! The accounting courses I took in college have not helped me much in raising children!
