Well, that about sums it up.

I never doubted it, but I must admit, everyone is right. It is not the terrible twos, it is the terrible threes. Zach keeps me on my toes and constantly out of breath. All of you that wonder how I stay thin...just spend a day with Zach...seriously. I know that his new little phase is wearing him out as well because he is always very tired it seems. He REALLY needs a nap these days..but that only happens if I catch it in the EXACT window..which only happens on a good day....which is maybe, maybe twice a week. No matter what he has to have quiet time for a couple hours each afternoon, but only on occasion does he go tuck his little self to sleep. Oh how I love those times.

I'm so tired. My feet hurt. My neck hurts. My back hurts. My arms hurt from holding the chunk. And my legs hurt from running up the hill (Connor in arms) chasing Zach as he is "going to wok wit daaddy."

And yet, after doing it day after day...just waiting for the black of night and the bright shining stars to appear to bring back my sanity. They are tucked tightly (and I mean tightly, just kidding ;)) into bed, and some how I still want more! Am I crazy, probably.

I love you speedy, even though you wear me out. As for you chunkers, thanks for the constant smiles and the next to perfect behavior.

Wait. what's that? 9:45pm....Zach crying. Nightmare perhaps. And just like that there it goes.There goes my peace. dang.
