As I am attempting to rinse out a poopy cloth diaper in the toilet, the toilet DOES NOT start to overflow on me! I mean, come on really??? Its not bad enough that I have to put my hands in the toilet to begin with?? I did not then just hope the problem would solve itself and that the next time I would flush it would just work. (Funny thing is, it did work!!)
Thank goodness I can start over tomorrow!

Not me Monday!
Not Me Monday time! Check out MckMama's blog.
Somehow the worst of my "Not Me's" happen when I am alone with the kids. Maybe that's because there are 3 of them and only 1 of me!! Sunday I did not decide that taking the kids out to run errands as a way to get out of the house was a good idea. I did not then listen to Piper scream the whole way there to then not fall asleep less than 30 seconds from the store. She did not fuss the entire time at the store. I did not listen to Parker scream the minute I put him in the cart until I did not give him a bright red Cherry flavored Icee. An Icee that he did not drink most of in a matter of minutes and then proceed to take the straw out and did not flick all over himself and his brother who was not nicely sitting next to him being quiet. Oh and did I mention that he did not have a white shirt on? I did not then fight with him the rest of the time to keep the straw in and not drink it from the hole in the lid. I was not wishing I had not just created more laundry for me to do.
I did not then decide to head to a craft store, "J" to look for items to finish a Christmas card order. I did not not find what I was looking for in J and then go to the other craft store, "M" across the street. Again, I did not not end up with the things I did not drag the kids in there to find. As I am standing there looking on the shelves I did not feel a warm wet spot forming on my shirt under Parker's butt to then left him up and see that he had not peed all over me. I did not then put everything I had on the stroller on the shelf in front of me and walk out. I did not then listen to Peyton cry about not getting to go to McDonald's that I had not been using as bribery to cooperate at the stores with me to then just cave in and not go in with a soaking wet shirt and a 20 month old with soaking wet pants. Nope not me!! I did not put my vest on and try to cover it up, but then realize it was too ungodly hot to wear that and juggle all 3 kids in McDonalds by myself. I did not then leave it in the car and say to myself "Who cares? My shirt is wet, they can think what they want." Everyone does not always stare at me and make comments about how "full my hands are" anyway, when in reality they do not really want to say "You're crazy for having 3 kids that close in age! What were you thinking!" To which I don't want to scream and say "Mind your own business!!"
I did not then hang out for a while to let them play on the playground to then have to go and rescue the 20 month old from the very top! I did not then decide it was time to go and turn down the help that strangers were so kindly offering me.
I did not drive all the way home to then find out that Parker had not pooped in his diaper like he does not do EVERYTIME we are at a playground!
Thank goodness it was naptime when we got home!!!
Oh and I most definitely DID NOT wear the shirt that did not get soaked with pee the rest of the day because I forgot! Nope not me!!!!!!

Piper's 1st cereal
Piper had her first cereal the other day. She wasn't too sure at first, but LOVES it now. Its helping to keep this little 18lb girl full longer!!
HAPPY HALLOWEEN
We took the kids out trick or treating on Friday night to see family and then went around the neighborhood on Saturday night.
Quick photo before we left Sat. No one was in the mood to have their picture taken.
Our little butterfly.

Not Me Monday!
Welcome to Not Me! Monday! This blog carnival was created by MckMama. Visit her blog to read what she and everyone else have not been doing this week.
Not Me Monday... The Weekend Version.
I most definitely did not take my 2 babies to the grocery store on a Friday night one hour before bedtime and expect them to go along with the flow. I did not spend the entire time carrying one baby and trying to console another one with food. When it was time to put the food on the conveyor belt, I did not put the 4 month old back in her seat to scream while I threw the food at the cashier in an effort to hurry things along. I did not find out that my toddler had put his finger through the plastic on the RAW hamburger meat and then in my attempts to keep him quiet ate a cookie. I did not then just politely smile at everyone who was now staring at me as I have 2 screaming children, a grocery cart full of food, and a diaper bag that did not fall upside down onto the floor and have everything spill out.
I did not go back to sleep when my husband came down to hang out with our sick baby girl on Saturday and get up with less than an hour to get all 5 of us showered and out of the house for a family photo. Nope, not me! We did not show up late to a family photo that was outside in the rain and 40 degree weather. I did not then go on to rush home and wrap my nephews birthday gift 5 minutes before we walked out of the house for his party. I did not take my baby who wasn't feeling well to the party, go to Ikea, and get back to find out that she had a fever.
I did not spend the majority of the night awake with a sick baby and then call the pediatrician on a Sunday morning to get an appointment that was in 30 min but still had a 45 min drive ahead of me. I did not then take 10 more minutes to get all 3 kids in the car. I did not race around the house to find my toddler's ONLY pair of shoes, to then find out that we did not leave it at Ikea the night before. I did not say "Oh well" and take him to the doctors office in his socks. I did not let him play in the sick child waiting room in just his socks. Not me! I did not then go to Target to fill a perscription for a baby who had an ear infection and a fever with 3 kids (one of which who was in his socks). I did not buy a bag of goldfish for the kids to snack on for my 5 year old to drop them all over the floor of the van. I did not leave Target with a bag of goldfish, two Icees, a pack of Swedish fish, Amoxicillin, and NO shoes for my toddler. I did not go home and give my baby her meds to then be thrown up on (twice!) I did not then enjoy a 2 hour nap with all 3 kids!
I did not then wake up on Monday morning and take the kids to Walmart (with no shoes on my toddler) to pick up some of the items I forgot to get on my trip to the grocery store on Friday night. Not me!
