When will I get my energy back?

Man, I am just EXHAUSTED!!!!! How did I ever get so busy??? Oh ya, that's right, I just had to marry a man that I love and is absolutely gorgeous and couldn't keep my hands off him so we had lot's of kids....and I home-school 6 out of 8 of them. BUT.....I wouldn't have it any other way, okay okay, so I'm not going to lie, there are a few things I would change BUT my family size and homeschooling are DEFINITELY not one of them!!!

So I found out that my thyroid levels are off, so I am not getting enough thyroid hormones and I am just moving so much slower, can't multi-task like I used to, scattered, emotional, depressed, takes me longer to spit my words out or think of the word I am trying to say....it's so frustrating.  All I want to do is be my normal, spunky, energetic self. I want to start working out so bad, but I should probably wait a couple weeks 'til my medicine kicks in. They upped me from 100mcg to 125 mcg. I hope I start feeling the effects soon because we have no clean clothes to wear....LOL

Jesse James first step at 7 months old

Wow, can you believe, Jesse James took his first step today? He is only 7 months old, and he has been standing for a few seconds on his own for a while now. He seems to have no fear. He stands there and then just leans forward and expects someone to catch him. Well, this time he actually took a step, then Ashlyn was there to catch him expecting him to fall. Maybe he would have taken 2 steps if she hadn't been there. It's just so crazy that he is so advanced. Ashlyn walked early, she walked very well at 9 mo old and was running at 10 months, I think Shayla did too. I thought that was early. I just love watching my children grow, it's one of my greatest joys!
