Insanity Vs. Stress

I've come to find the greatest challenge of being a stay at home mom is the balance between getting out of the house and the stress of having too many things to do. Where is the tipping point? I'm sure every mother has their own limits; for me the more outings the better my mood is......and a happy mommy makes much happier babies. Monday we had lunch with my friend Tammy and then spent the afternoon with Mima and Papa. Tuesday we bought BOB with Daddy (the highlight of the week...make that the year!), went to the double cuddles twins group at providence, and then met Courtney and Keegan at the zoo. Wednesday we did baby sign language, and then took BOB (and all three kids) to Hilltop for a jog/bike ride (this is an entire story in and of itself), we went to hockey, and came home quite tired! Thursday we went over to visit Courtney and Keegan in the morning, Aunt Jenna stopped by to say hello, and we had a play date with Kara and twins in the afternoon, and then had hockey. And what fun do we have planned for today???? In the morning we went jogging with BOB, and we're going to take a walk and have a play date with our twin neighbors Nathan and Ryan. Before Payton gets home we're going to make a Costco run (the shopping carts there have room for TWO babies!!!) If it doesn't rain, when Payton gets home from school we're going to venture over to the neighborhood school and play on the playground! It is so nice to have warm weather, friends with babies, and so many things to do!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sitting around the house just isn't my cup of tea!!!
Cassidy put herself in jail.........she crawled on in and had no idea how to get out!
