A day in the Superlarsfam Home!!

Okay I love being a Mom and I love being a Wife and everything that goes with those the good and the bad, so if you all were wondering here is a day in the Larsen Home. It actually starts the night before. Its 9:30 pm and its time for me to go to work( for those that don't know I'm a CNA at an assisted living home the graveyard shift) so I kiss J.B. goodnight and give him a lil scratch on his back ( I normally do this every night when we go to bed it puts him to sleep) and go check on the kids (i am anal about this. I must check on them) and off I go. 8 hrs later (I usually get home about 6: 15 am ) I crawl into bed for some blissful sleeee Agh the alarm goes off at 7:15 and I finally get up about 7:40. Kyan is usually up with the TV on and wanting food. I go get Braeden up and put him in the shower, get Jett out of bed and then have a "pleasant" discussion with Kyan on whether hes going to eat oatmeal or cereal. So i get him and Jett their food and then I need to take our puppy D'Hara out to go potty. 5 min later we are back in warmin' our tails. By this time I remember Braeden has been in the shower forever so we go in and lather him up and tell him to wash, rinse and GET OUT!!!:) By this time J.B. is up and is getting ready for work. I then feed D'Hara cuz shes hungry too. but that's a battle sometimes to becuz the kids food is better. I then get Braeden's clothes for school and tell him again to get out of the shower. J.B. has to go so he gives us our hugs and kisses and off he goes. We love our Daddy and are so grateful he works hard for us. Braeden is finally ready and sits down to eat. I then proceed to get the other two dressed which goes like this "Kyan put your clothes on, Jett come here, No Kyan your pants are on backwards, Jett come here. Kyan do you want to go back to bed, PUT your clothes on!! Jett (who I'm now chasing) come here!!". Finally we are dressed Braeden is ready for school and we are off to walk B to the bus. (its only 8:20am) We say bye to B and walk back home. Kyan usually wants to race but I'm holding Jett because he has no shoes on so that doesn't happen. Now the next couple hours vary on the day. I finally remember I'm hungry so I eat and then its time for the dog to go out again. So out we go and back in we come. By this point Kyan is usually whining hes hungry again but he just ate so he has to wait. I decide I need to clean so I pick up my book and read, only for an half hour. A hour and a half later, during with I tell Kyan a billion times to leave the dog and Jett alone. I feed the kids a snack and put Jett down for nap #1. Okay time to clean after I watch The Biggest Loser (we dvr it) Instead I fall asleep. Kyan puts on his movie and finds all the food he can get in the 45 min I'm asleep. He has gotten a hold of cupcakes, pizza, yogurt, chips, crackers, fruit, bread you name it. I love that kid he makes me want to rip my hair out and give him a big hug at the same time.. I wish I could tell you I then play with him for hours on end but if I'm going to be honest I don't. He gets out his dinosaurs or we read a book or if I'm feeling really ambitious we go for a walk ( after Jett is awake) So Jett is up and we (well not me cuz I forget about me) eat lunch and then run to the store. That in its self is a story. 2 hrs later we are finally home. I put the groceries away and now its time to clean. So I do the dishes, pick up the living room, break up a fight over a toy, give the boys hugs and kisses, tell them i love them, vacuum, maybe put in a load of laundry, and then pick up my book and read just a lil' bit more. Braeden comes home from school and the boys usually go outside and play. They play well so its quite enjoyable. Also during that time I have feed D'Hara and taken her out at least twice. You know havin' a puppy is like havin' a new baby all over again!!! But we love her. J.B. is home soon so he gives us all hugs and kisses and we chit chat or he relaxes on the couch. Time for dinner. In our house you eat what Mom made (it wasn't always like that but it sure is easier) So we all eat well most of us do any way. Whoever doesn't eat does not get a treat. After dinner we all just relax unless we have soccer practice, or J.B. has fire training or we go to the temple, or anything else that comes up. 7:30 bath time for the lil boys and after scriptures, prayer and a song its bedtime. Brush teeth and snuggles and J.B. and I spend some time together. Life is super fun. and we love being together. I wont say I'm the best Mom or the greatest Wife and definitely not the greatest housekeeper, (i am a pretty fair cook though:)but I love my family and I would do anything for them. We love each other and the gospel that makes our life so much better. My boys(that includes J.B.) are my life and i am so blessed to be surrounded by so much love. Life is not easy but it sure is fun and I look forward to many more crazie days.
