Mom Hits and Misses

This week (well the last three days) have been filled with many mommy moments....most of them were misses....with a couple mommy hits....

I am not let it role off your back type of person or mom....I can only handle so much....and especially when it comes to listening....our first day of summer vacation as I blogged about before was awful....pure and simple....the next day was better but in no way great.....we did have a mommy hit moment when I got them a kiddie pool that they were able to play in despite it being super cold water and only sunny for about 10 minutes....and syd's lips were the color of bluish purple....but they played in it for about 2 hrs

But that was a moment to help me get through all the bad moments from the day before.....

Yesterday was a day that I will never want to repeat again...I honestly didn't think it could get worse than Monday....but man was I mistaken...I am not sure why Breyden is wanting to push his limits here....but he pushed as much as I have ever seen him....and it did not work out to his advantage in many ways.....the only saving grace was a ice cold beer or 4 last night and sitting outside with our neighbors after the great snake relocation.....and then waking up to this

Since yesterday was all over the board...I was not able to go to the gym or get a run in....so I joined the 5am club again this morning....and ran just over 5 miles....and even with the lack of sleep being slightly hungover I ran my fastest pace to date....I have no regrets getting up this morning and doing that....it was beautiful.....and I saw a record number of deer....my count was at 13......after the kids woke up I got to watch them eat breakfast together......

These are the mommy hit moments that make this past week bearable.....without these I am not sure if we would have made it in tack.....

To the wonderful roller coaster called mommyhood!
