Let's get moving!

Question: 
What else do you do when you literally GROW out of your current house?

Answer:
You go on a massive hunt to find one that will fit!

And that my friends, is just what we did.  Let's make it a bit better, we FOUND something!  What?!  In our village (yes, a village, not a town...we are too small for that word!) that will fit our crazed family.

Guess what that means for this crazed mama and her minons?  It is clean up, pack up and move it out time!  I am going insane here, I have 2 weeks. That is a good amount of time for most, but not for me.  I feel like I need to have each room packed and ready to go.  That wouldn't make a bit of sense though, considering we wouldn't be moving for another 2 weeks.  Sooooooo, instead, I shall drive my children insane with my massive cleaning out of closets, toy boxes (anyone else hate those as much as I do?!), under beds and anywhere else that might hide "stuff" I can get rid of!

If anyone would care to help me, only so I don't go batty feeling I need it all done NOW, please...feel free to comment below!  I will make you a meal :)  Just remember, I don't have room for a sleep over :)

Let's just say hello!

Pretty sure the title of this blog will say it all.  I am a crazed mama that has approximately 9, yes NINE, children in my home.  I say approximately because one is still baking away (SHE makes number 9!) and 3 others are only here part time.  It can be crazy (hence the crazed part), but most importantly it is fun.  When you have ages ranging from 12-9 months (plus a set of twins thrown in there) anything can happen!  Sprinkle in a child that battles autism, a husband that works crazy hours and way to many and a tired pregnant mama...you are bound to walk into craziness at any given time!

Over time I have learned how to pass out responsibility   Ethan, 12, he does dishes and trash.  Last year after all the laundry was done he would bring about 3 loads of dirty laundry out (how does a BOY have that much dirty laundry), that made for this crazed mama teaching him how to do laundry.  His wife will love me one day.  Justice, 12 (she is my step daughter), she vacuums and sweeps the tile floors.  Good thing with a 9 month old that eats anything he can get his lil chubby sticky paws on!  Toryn, 8, she helps keep the bathroom clean.  I am still training that one, as well as the other 3.  They enjoy helping cook dinner (they actually argue over it), keep (SUPPOSED TO) their own rooms clean and put their own laundry away.  Julian, my 5 year old, has a lot of sensory issues, general understanding and melt downs from down below.  I am still working with him on just cleaning up after himself, but I can see him getting better!  GO JULIAN!

The minons I didn't mention are Gavin, 10, Timberlie and Chealselyn, 7, Jaxson is the baby and Karsyn will be making an appearance sometime at the end of June or start of July! 

All that being said, this crazed mamas eyes are starting to droop, which means I should probably head to bed.
