The witching hour
There really is one, isn't there! I swear, the 5-6pm hour is absolute hellish around here. Both kids screaming, if not just Carter. It's enough to drive anyone batty. I'm still working on those posts in draft, but with nights like this, I have no idea when I'll actually get to publish them. Hopefully soon!
Our Roots
- Kristin
- Colorado
- I married my soul mate 10 years ago. We got married very young & we are very thankful that we did despite what other opinions may have been. It gave us a chance to grow up together & learn how to ride life's roller coaster ups & downs as a team. We had some good friends & adventures in Vegas when we started out. Then we hit a fork in the road & moved to Portland, OR so I could go to school & pursue a career in chiropractic. That's where we learned that sometimes life has plans for us other than our "perfectly mapped out" one. Bill got a promotion that moved us out to Colorado, somewhere he's always wanted to live, but a place where my thoughts of chiropractic school would die. Marriage is all about compromise, so we made the move to bigger & better things. As we continued to be successful at work, it felt like there was something missing. That's when I started to think about having a baby. As a stay at home mom to Logan, life was everything we wanted it to be. Then we were crazy enough to do it again & soon added Carter to the family. This is our adventure raising two boys in the Rocky Mountains.

that hour between 5 and 6 is rough around here too. I think Monkey just needs to get over the hump to make it to bedtime but it is a bumpy hump for sure.
I remember those days!! Ahhh.. now it's right before bedtime.
It gets easier I swear to you!! (and if I'm wrong you can beat me up)
Us here too. Strange how that is the same time for us too!
I agree..around dinner time and it goes crazy...Thanks for the award..
This happened to us when Alex was around 3 months old and Serenity was just turned 3. Both kids wanted me and only me at bedtime. I remember being in tears and asking my husband (while holding my infant) if having a him might have been a bad idea. He laughed and said it was a little to late for that.
Luckily, Alex started going down earlier and it fixed the problem, but those couple of weeks were hellish. Now that they are 8 and 5, it is that last 1/2 before bedtime where they just get wild.
