That is how I am describing how things are going over here. Random people and friends keep saying things to me like "It will all be over too soon" or "Wow! you have your hands full" or "you are doing a great job with these .... energetic boys" this last one is said with a look of pity. I never have been good at keeping my feelings off of my face I guess I should practice so I don't keep getting these comments while I am out with the boys.
Some days I really do have it all together where the house is clean and everyone is
relatively happy and dinner on the table, but other days the house is a wreck and everyone is crying including me.
In other news we got some family pictures taken. I love how the pictures turned out I can really see how the boys look like Kris and that makes me very happy.

Love the family photo. You really are doing the best you can and you are doing a great job. YOur little family is so cute and well...they are boys : ) It is really hard to feel like you are doing a good job when others make comments that reinforce our self doubt. I struggle with this alot too. Try to push the self doubt aside and remember you are human! You are amazing!
Aw I love the pictures! Just getting your family together for pictures just earned you a mother of the year award! :)
Glad someone else is going a little crazy - but my craziness is mostly caused by 1 child - and she's a girl! What the heck???
i think the kids are a good combination of the two of you- so beautiful! i love their eyes.
love the pictures
and it's okay not to always hide your feelings.
hang in there!
Just don't let it get to you. IT is ok to show people who don't know your situation and tell you how much they "enjoy" (sarcastically) you kids your true feelings.
Hang in there, soon they will be better at hiding from you in the stores.:)
Oh Sarah, I know how you feel about the 3 energetic boys! And they do look like Kris. Someday we will miss all the craziness right?!
Did I ever tell you about the time I had screaming kids with me and was buying a pregnancy test? Wow, the looks!
Some people are jerks, but hey, you've got one up on them, your family is beautiful!!
Sarah... what cute pictures!! I so have been where you are... I had all 3 kids at home with me for a year and a half before Spencer went to Kindergarten.... the funny thing is that I remember it being crazy, but you know how it is.... you forget the bad and only remember the good.... I mostly remember how fun it was... ha ha... Why are we made that way?? You are obviously doing a great job! So that is what matters.... miss you guys!
Sarah....I WISH we lived closer to you guys so that we could take our 3 boys out together (for a grand total of 6 boys) and see what kind of looks and comments we get- oh, what fun that would be! I just decided this past year that it takes a special spirit to raise all boys....at least that's what I tell myself to feel better about my situation. It helps me ( : Good luck and all I can say is that I think you'll get into a groove soon. Probably not a "smooth" groove, but at least some sort of a groove. Gotta love those energetic little boys.
