My Morning...

This was my day....
(This was about 2 weeks ago...but it's all the same)

I Wake Up,
Go wake Delaney up for school, say Bye to Kayli, Thank God she's a morning person and gets herself ready and out the door!
Put the house on lock down to prevent twins from escaping
2nd attempt to wake Delaney and get her in the shower
Put twins on potty, put on their undies, give them juice and get them changed
Tell Delaney to get out of the shower
After looking for my shoes, tell Delaney AGAIN to get out of the shower.
Go outside to warm up the car, it's cold, it's snowing and I'm now thinking over the reasons why we didn't move to FLORIDA! And yes, I warm up the car about a 1/2 hr before I go anywhere because I HATE being cold!
Come back inside, gather up 2 pairs of socks and 2 pairs of shoes to get the twins ready to drive Delaney to school...oh and Delaney, STILL in the shower!
Back to the bathroom..."GET OUT OF THE SHOWER!"
Left shoe, Right shoe, Left shoe, Right shoe all lined up ready to go.
Chase down one twin, Delaney needs to go upstairs gotta go take the gate down.
Chase down one twin...AGAIN. Grab a pair of shoes & socks that were previously lined up. Don't know what happened but somehow he ended up with 2 left feet. (note: first sign of a bad day when a couple of 3 year olds outsmart you.) Fix the shoes, grab the other twin and...one sock! "COME ON" I kid you not this is a typical day. Delaney is not ready, and we have 10 mins. to get to school. Good thing it's less than a 1/4 mile away.
Locate other sock, which apparently Jack (twin) thinks will make a good mitten. Chase him down wrestle away mitten, I mean sock, chase down other one and get his socks and shoes on. As he runs off I notice...Shoes on wrong feet! UGH...Oh well we're just going to go with it!
(Now here's the part that you know I've definitely LOST it)
Rush around grab last minute things, that I tell Delaney EVERY night to get ready...lunch money and snack. Get boys ready at the door...Oops, need my keys (at this time you may want to go up a little and re-read) look in my pockets, no keys...?????...Look in the drawer, on the table, on the chairs...LOOK, LOOK, LOOK...Now I'm frustrated and yelling "We have to go I need my keys and the car is running...." I swear the sun came out for a second as the light bulb FINALLY went on in my head! Car running....Keys in car! UUUHHHH! Let's go!
Driving to school with less than 5 mins to go! Turning into school Delaney announces..."I forgot my flute!" OMG....AAAAAAHHHHHH!

All this from 7:30 to 8:50.....
