complete chaos

Have I mentioned that my house is chaotic? With 4 boys carrying on all day it is no surprise. We can't go 5 minutes without someone fighting, screaming or crying around here. I have seriously contemplated going out into the garage and getting some earplugs for myself. I haven't entirely rejected this idea yet.

Today Chase is 1 month old. That is hard to believe. I guess time flies when you are tired and trying to keep up with everyone and everything. I decided I would snap a few pictures of him since it has been about a week since I pulled out my camera. Then I decided that while I was snapping I might as well take a few more pictures of the boys so I can update my picture above. That didn't go so well.

It started out o.k. Chase doesn't fight me too much at this point.



Owen, surprisingly was in a cooperative mood.



The chaos began when I was trying to take Taylor's picture. Bennett and Owen decided that wrestling was a lot more fun than posing for a picture so they started rolling on the ground laughing and screaming.



In about 20 seconds Taylor joined in and we went from everyday chaos to full blown chaos. The sheet gets torn down, the dog starts looking nervous. By this point the photo shoot was over and I couldn't even get a picture of Bennett.



And of course, anyone that has boys that wrestle know that sooner rather than later the laughing and screaming turns to crying. Have I mentioned that my house is chaotic?

oh dear, I am starting to dread reclaiming my boys from the relatives... Brotherly love can sure be noisy!

Tiera, really I am going to come over. When is good for you? I didn't know what you would need but, now I know. I will check in to those ear plugs. :)
