Mandy's Mayhem

Here I go, my first blog. I guess this means I am no longer a blog virgin (is that allowed?), I guess I'll find out.
I was sitting here today on face book, I'm also new to that but anyway, as I was reading some post's I thought to myself wonder what g-ma has posted on her blog lately. So there I go. Not much new to report there but I should mention Happy Anv. to my grandparents. Anyway as I was reading I thought to myself I should start a blog. But then i thought what would I say, what would I name it? And would anyone read it. Who knows.
So while I thought about the name my son Matthew went running by with his older sister Emmy fast in chase and Sarah not far behind as I yelled Stop it your dad and brother are trying to sleep. And it hit me. Mandy's Mayhem. But then I thought about it and wasn't sure.
So I got my old friend Webster's out to see just what mayhem means. Now, the first part of it about act's caused by violence just doesn't fit my household. But then it went on to say something about confusion, noise, and disorder. That's it I thought , not so much the confusion, but the noise and disorder, that's my house right now. You see, I just had baby number 4 a couple of months ago. On top of that one week later my mother needed open heart surgery to remove a major blood clot, my husband works nights so that leaves me home with the kids a lot. Mind you I'm not complaining I love my children dearly but there are day's the noise and disorder really get to me.
I'm the type of person who likes everything in it's place, you know the old saying everything has a place and every place has it's thing, yeah that's me. Then the kids came. I try, some day's are better than other's but none are perfect. But hey that's my life and I wouldn't change it for the world. So I just take it as grandma would say One Day at a Time.
So there you go that's it my first blog. I hope I didn't ramble on to much and maybe one of you will enjoy reading it.But for now I have to go see what the kid's are doing, they are way to quiet!!
