Two optometry husbands+Finals week= lots of bonding time with Megan!!!
Crafting+ cleaning+ Gingerbread houses+ Second Saturday before Christmas shopping spree+Target+Costco+6 month old baby in stroller+ 1 three year old+ 1 four year old+ 1 five year old+ a movie =......drumroll please..... a lot of fun and two very tired mommies!!!
So... I need to say that this week of finals has been a lot of fun for me. Am I kidding? Sadly no! insane? Well, maybe a little- as bad as it is to say- especially for Derek to hear- I have actually had a really fun week. I have pretty much been married to Megan for the entire week. We had a major crafting session and we made gingerbread houses with our kids, and even made some extra cash cleaning. She is a total blast and we just have so much fun dragging our kids everywhere. People must think we are so nuts... I can only imagine how we look with a shopping cart full of kids as we try to jam our stuff in around them and all the while we switch back and forth taking turns pushing the stroller. People probably think "those poor young mommies" and feel bad for us- but we are acctually having a blast.. (most of the time) that's how we roll. And we have so much fun doing it. Our boys are the best buddies and we just love to be out and about even if it means we are crazy mammas. Good times for sure. She is the best! It almost makes me wish finals came a little more often- well almost. :)

Hey lady, those are some cute gingerbread houses. I'm glad you've had a fun week. There is something to be said for good friends and of course, we can all benefit from retail therapy ;o)
You are one fun Mom! I'm glad I'm not the only crazy Mom out there! I can't wait for the looks I get when I take all five to the store and yes, they're all mine! I'm glad you have Megan to pal around with, since your sisters are so far away-but not for long!!!!! I'm SOOOOOOOOO excited to see you and your fam. Hopefully we can all stay healthy to party, party, party! Cute gingerbread house, we tried that a few years ago, it didn't go well.
