The Day in a Life of a Crazy Mother of Five...
We are crazy busy around here. I'm so tired! My "Girlfriend Getaway" set me back on sleep and then yesterday I just woke up at 4am thinking of stuff I had to do. And this morning when the alarm sounded at 5:30 I was SOOO sleepy - but I meet my girlfriend, Tara, to walk every morning and so I had to get up, that's probably a good thing! I feel like I'm dragging today, though.
This keeping the house clean is good and bad, it's a pain with 5 kids, but it's nice to have everything spiffy all the time! It is good until we have to do something like make and eat dinner, breakfast or lunch, or do laundry. Or if the kids want to do anything slightly messy, like play Legos, a game, or Pet Shop. In other words, it's clean except for when we have to actually live in here! We'll see how long it lasts! I just got back from Michael's and Costco.
Tyler LOVES Costco! I am not completely sure why, but I think it's all the food samples they have in there! But I hate that I can't get out of there without spending at least $100!!
I did manage to make this Crockpot Cake Recipe today. It is done baking and I tasted it and it is rich! If you really like Chocolate, it is for you! (Ahem, Denise.)

I hope that your house sells soon! I remeber while selling our home, keeping it clean all of the time was the hardest for me. I remember a few times putting laundry in the back of my car! This would happen when a realator would call, and say they would be there in an hour!
I saw the chocolate cake recipe the other day. I was thinking about making it for the kiddos. I'm glad to know you liked it! I love chocolate! :)
Ugh. Keeping a house clean with five kids? I don't envy you! I thought I would die when our condo took three weeks to sell...and that was before kids. :-)
Here's for hoping for a quick sale!
Just catching up. What a FUN getaway to go and do with friends!! I totally feel your pain on selling your house. Your home is gorgeous. I will be crossing my fingers it will go fast and then you guys can relax. Good for you getting up early. I am not sure I could do that in your early temps. BRRRR!
I can't even imagine your house ever NOT being clean!
Hoping it will sell quickly, so you can return to easier living! It all looks lovely!
It is so hard to keep everything clean & ready to show at all the time, when you have children.... I have been there girl. I hope you sell your house fast..
It is such a great home......
I am so glad that you visited my blog! I have loved visiting yours and relating to another Mom with kids! Good luck on your house...I sympathize! :-)
Oh yeah, I'm all about the chocolate. YUM!
I looked at your house link, and it looks really good! I hope you sell fast. I know it's a pitd trying to keep a house in selling condition while you're still living in it, especially with kids!
Hey, good to see you in the blogging world! Just thought I'd say hello. Hope you are all well.
Keeping a clean house all the time, you are doing the impossible!! Good luck:)
I just went on the link to your house, it is beautiful. Have you found anything you are interested in buying? Keep us posted.
Carolee, we haven't really looked, looked in Utah yet. I just am trying to focus on selling this place first.
