frustration

Aaargh! I want so much to get in shape but am so limited with what I can do. My triple jogger tires are flat and don't stay inflated and need to be fixed. It seems like there is ALWAYS a baby who needs SOMETHING! I have some babysitters who come over but not all the time, and when they come it's always while I take the older kids to their lessons or something. My house is a mess and needs to be cleaned. Haylee has a great "Tae-Bo" DVD but I'm the type of person who wants/needs to get into it for more than 5 mins at a time to break a sweat. I WANT TO WORK OUT!!! My clothes fit everywhere but from my hips to my clavicle and I want to shrink! I'm so willing to do the work, but can't find the alone time. This is so frustrating.

Later the same day...

Of course, my babies are so cute and sweet but I think little Eden is teething because she whines all day long and really has a hard time drifting off to sleep. She does this cute little thing where she purses her lips and blows spit and rolls her "b's," but I think it's a result of her discontent rather than to be cute. I was so relieved today when my mom walked through my front door at about 2:30 p.m. to help! Hooray for a relief pitcher!

Bella is rolling over now! Back to front, front to back! And today Hannah rolled front to back for the first time! Tonight my mom lined them up in front of the TV to watch Dancing With the Stars and they went nuts! They waved their arms and kicked their legs to the music. It was adorable.

But the exercise thing...well, yes, I managed to get that Tae-Bo video done, even though I had to stop 3 or 4 times during it to attend to babies. Someday I'll be able to go to the gym regularly again, and my clothes will fit and my muscle tone will return, right?
