It's 7:03 pm. The kids have been in bed for 3 minutes, and I am choosing to post the pictures from tonight rather than clean the playroom or fold the clothes that have been in the dryer for 3 days.
Brandon is back in school 3 nights a week, so when I say I pick my battles, it is mostly because at around 6pm on these days... there are no battles left to pick, and I think they have figured that out. There is no back up coming through the door to rescue me...or them!
I start these days off really strong! We have started implementing 'time-out' on the advice of our doctor. I promise it is way less nasty than it sounds. And I started Monday, and only one child has had to go to time out all week... twice. (((I'll do another post on time out another day.))) And... it's Luke if you didn't already figure that out on your own.
Anyways, my point.... I strip the kids down to just diapers after dinner and let them play while I clean up. So after I finished cleaning up all the ground beef, rice, and black beans from the floor... this is what I found. (BTW... this is like the 100th reason why we need a dog. He or She could just clean the floor for me.)

| Followed up with a little naked basketball! |
At least no one will ever accuse my kids of not having any personality!
 |
| Once again, ignore his dinner! |
 |
| Ready to work out mommy! |
 |
| I read about 75 books a day! |

| He loves to slide! |
 |
| Notice there are zero books in my gutter! They love it. They also love for it to be empty. |
