I have ten kids.

this has been my excuse for everything lately.  for example:

how did I manage to completely forget about Sawyer, Ella and Phoebe's conferences on Monday?  I have ten kids.

why is there gum on the carpet?  I have ten kids.

how come there's never any food in this house?  I have ten kids.

why can't I fit into these jeans?  I have ten kids.

why is there a half-eaten piece of toast in the hall closet?  I have ten kids.

why are you sighing and holding your head like that?  I have ten kids.

we're having frozen waffles for dinner AGAIN?  I have ten kids.  

why is the ice cream in the refrigerator?  I have ten kids.

why do you keep calling me RowanFinleyJakeWhateverYourNameIs?  I have ten kids.

isn't that like your fiftieth cup of coffee today?  I have ten kids.

it's four o'clock in the afternoon why are you still in your pajamas?  I have ten kids.

why have I not blogged in nearly a week?  

BECAUSE I HAVE TEN KIDS, THAT'S WHY.

to those of you who have been anxiously awaiting pictures from Gary's party, I apologize.  I will post them as soon as I have a chance.  in the meantime, here is a glimpse from last weekend, courtesy of my phone.  by the way, we had a grand time.  and the party was all sorts of nerdy and awesome.

(yes, that would be my hubby shooting hoops in a wheelchair.  he is almost forty, you know.)    


not what was I supposed to bring tomorrow?  my ten kids? 

wishing everyone a Happy Thanksgiving!
