Trying something new!

Well--here I go! So, I'll follow my sister-in-law's lead and try something new by starting a blog about our crazy life...I have been wanting to start for awhile but with my 4 little ones literally on top of me (Christopher is, even as I am typing) I use "no time" as my excuse! My hubby came home from work today and has pretty much forced me to get started--and I'll admit, I am glad. I'm not much into scrap booking but figure I should document as much of the daily chaos and insanity as I can so that one day my kids will know why they have turned out the way they have. Even as I type I can hear my two sons-turned saber-toothed tigers for the moment-leaping around the upstairs; my oldest, Mackenna, just returned from a play date and has already informed me that she hates what we're having for dinner; and our newest, Tessa, is wondering what I ate earlier today and why it has to upset her tummy. Life--each day goes by so fast and I'm not sure I'm treasuring these times when my kids are still small enough. Hopefully I can slow things down and take more time to enjoy laughing with them, making messes with them, and listening to their little thoughts--I think I can, if I take it one day at a time. Wish me luck--trying something new!
