Missing Daddy & the Abusive Mom

I mentioned Vince is working alot. He has a few big projects plus business has picked up. Juggling it all has become a problem. He leaves at 730am and get home around 8pm. It totally stinks. I feel so disconnected and miss him terribly. While we are thankful there is work and money in spite of so many others struggling and getting pink slips..... I just want a tiny bit of time with him KWIM?

So the kids and I try to keep busy. Especially during the weekend when they are used to him being around.

Friday after school I took them to the cheap showing of HSM3. Everyone but Madi loved it. Its definetly an "older" movie and she just wants the music, Sharpay, and Gabriella...skip everything else. LOL!

Then we raced home... Threw on Halloween costumes and rushed up to some friends Ward for a little Trunk or Treating and games.




I love the ladies in this group. They are really true friends and have just filled my life with so much joy this last year. Its also given my girls some delightful friends.


Saturday we had Noah's last reg. season soccer game and then we spent the rest of the day at home.


The boys took turns reading books to Caitlyn and Madi.


And they all 4 "helped" wash the dogs....



While I worked on my never ending project.... This is ACTUALLY organized! I have everything sorted in sizes newborn to 5T !!! I'm listing it on craigslist and ebay if you know anyone who needs baby to toddler clothes. I have some beautiful dresses! (I haven't even touched the boys stuff yet.....and don't ask why I still have all of this!)




Finally, I don't think the picture really shows it but Caitlyn has a blue/black eye. I elbowed her the other night when I was hugging Madi and reaching over her in bed. Oops! I felt terrible.
