Oh, How Can We Figure This Out?
I am ashamed to admit that we don't often sit as a family for dinner. Usually one of us is on baby duty while the other eats with the girls, I know it galls my mother to the core to read this. She, of the double veggies and set the table lifestyle. I am just excited (and surprised) to get a main course cooked! Usually, I rely on the fruits or veggies Hazel and CC eat during the day to be enough.
So for dinner tonight I made a pot roast with potatoes. Usually, because I am my mothers daughter I would have to set the table and make a salad and some type of veggie. We would all sit down together and pray, then eat. Clear the table. Do dishes. It is a little more hectic than that and I hope Mom forgives me, I know she does. We will get it figured out, give me a few more years. All I hope for is some little girls that wash their hands before and clear their places when they are done. Low standards are so easy to strive for.

Maybe a really big lazy Susan with seats and you could spin the babies? A chow time carousel?
ReplyDeleteMaybe stadium seating? A modified ladder?
That lazy susan idea has great potential! Everytime I look at these pictures I realize genetics are an amazing thing. I see Kendall in Quinn; Cam in Wil; a baby Robbie in James; and CC could have been Jennifer in her heyday :) So fun to see them growing and thriving -- can't wait to meet those little munchkins in person. Love to all of you, Auntie G
ReplyDeletewe had pot roast tonight! yay pot roast!
ReplyDeleteand, must I say it? don't be so hard on yourself, darling... making dinner and feeding people is good enough for now... things will eventually settle and everyone can eat veggies together :)
