This is why I don't blog very often...
(First, a disclaimer: this is is no way posted to elicit sympathy or to complain about life right now. I'm very, very blessed. It's just a peek into a typical day. I know life would still be nutty as a part-time working or stay-at-home mom, which I want to be!)

Amy - this morning routine could be streamlined!!!! I'm up between 7 and 7:30 and out the door with two fed/nursed kids at 8:30. The bed doesn't _always_ get made, though.
