First Post

The first post. 

Every blog has to have one.

I can't speak for other bloggers, but I can say that I am finding myself sitting here wondering what on Earth I'm supposed to write about. I mean, I had 5,000 ideas just a few minutes ago...but here I am, post numero uno, and nothing in particular comes to mind.

I guess I'm supposed to use this time and space to introduce myself.  

Well, my name is Heather...I'm a 20-something year old mama to five (yes, five) kids who I swear begin each day by plotting to see what they can do to drive me up the wall next.  You see, these little buggars are all VERY close in age (with the exception of my oldest).  Current ages in this household are 10, 5, 4, 23 months, and 9 months.  

Yeah, I know...I'm crazy.  I hear that a lot.

And trust me...when one smuggles the green sprinkles out of the kitchen when I'm not looking and comes out of their bedroom ten minutes later looking like Fiona or Shrek I am aware of that level of craziness.

But they're mine (maybe a little too much mine) and I love them dearly, even when I'm wishing it was legal to duct tape them to the wall. 

They're crazy.

I'm crazy.

We're all just a little crazy around here.

And not a day goes by that they don't drive me up the wall...

And I wouldn't have it any other way.
