I'm back

ok so it has been a week, (where does time go???) and honestly I didn't realize it had been so long since I posted...of course to say it has been busy is a bit of an understatement, but really aren't we all busy? So with some prompting, reminding, and simple nagging, (thanks Kelli) I will post more frequently, It is all a matter of making time. Life at the Haycraft's has been a blur...caused by little sleep and over active calendars...usually it is a blast. I do love the busy, chaotic moments in my life, but when several days in a row occur with minimul sleep well the result is far from pretty. ...I could star in a horror movie and need no makeup. Baby has decided to be awake at night, she is the party animal right now, of course if we are holding her she sleeps...remember what it's like to try to sleep while holding an infant...ok I didn't do it well the first time around, I still haven't mastered it this go round...not one to be left out Yahaira has joined in, awakening several times during the night...no they don't time it together, what fun would that be....this is where the blur comes in. of course the practical side of me thinks since i'm up I should get things done I don't get to during the day, but somehow the remaining family members take exception to the vacume cleaner running at 2 am :) guess they don't want to pary with us. on another note, my current phrase of choice, is "where's Yahaira" (kinda like the where's waldo books that were so popluar when the kids were younger) the difference, usually it is uttered with a sense of dread...not that I am worried she is hurt or lost...no simply because I don't know where she is and what she is doing, the important point would be what she is doing....This child can destroy a room in seconds...often while you are present. water is her favorite play thing, our record for outfit changes would be 4 by 10 am. My cupboards have been rearranged countless times, things are moved to new locations, places that make sense to yahaira but not to anyone else in the house. did I mention she can destroy a room in seconds? it is a sight to see, not one you recover from quickly. yesterday she went up to her room, and came down with shoes, of course she was missing her pants, but hey clothes are an option, it just so happened a daycare mom was here, and she is oooing and aahhhing over yahaira's shoes, so she picks her up to put her shoes on, after she puts her down, we both discovered that yahaira had no diaper on, and the one she had taken off had been a dirty diaper, could have died when I saw the mess left on the daycare mom's coat, she was cool about it. It was with much fear that I ventured upstairs to see what awaited me...there are not enough words to put that scenerio into print...use your imagination, it will be friendlier. Well time for the day to begin...I pray the energy needed to make it thru the day arrives soon. have a great day...until next time. Debbie
