The other day our alternator cracked so Will had to go to Cobano to get it fixed. Since this is CR that usually means a whole day ordeal and this day didn’t disappoint. He left at 7:00am and didn’t get home until 4:30pm.

I was home with the kids and no car and completely won at life! I made chocolate chip pancakes in the morning, vegan banana swirl cinnamon bread, got all the school work done with the girls, played a game of Sorry with no tears from anyone, set them up for their Outschool class on time, managed to keep the house clean and dishes washed, and juggled a newborn the entire time.

After lunch i looked at Sophie and said “Wow i am winning at life today” and as the statement flew out of my mouth so did a large stream of milk straight out of both boobs and on to the floor. Sophie and I were cracking up. She said it was like out of a sitcom.

I guess i should rename this post to “The day I almost won at life”. I’ll take it, esp after yesterday when Roo decided 4am was a good wake up time and the world was too exciting to sleep, paired with Sabi who popped up from a bad dream at 5:00am and decided the world was too scary to go back to sleep. Add in 3 poo explosions (before 7:30am) in 3 separate places and there goes any type of winning. Oh except I did miraculously catch a pee party and manage to lift Roo mid air with a changing pad before our bed was soaked. So there’s that.
