How to be a multi-functioning mother on the Road

So for those of you who do not know by now I have two beautiful little girls, Cansas and Sailor. Cansas is 2 1/2 and Sailor is 1 1/2, they are only 11 months apart and a handful to say the least!  I often wonder if I am scaring them for life with our road schedule and traveling all over the USA?! Thankfully enough God blessed me with a wonderful husband who does a fabulous job at playing mom when I am gone!  So many people have NO idea what it takes to be a stay at home mom, who still works full time from her home, while raising 2 kiddos and trying to keep a happy husband all while traveling at least one week out of the month.  Sheeeewww I get exhausted just thinking about it. My typical daily schedule consist of: getting up with the girls around 7-8am getting everyone ready for the day (that's typically why I look like a hot mess while running errands, etc. Its a chore to get two little girls hair fixed, clothes, shoes, bows, all while they run around  aggrevagting each other and melt-downs and who can forget a diaper bag with juice cups, babies, and whatever else u need) we will run and get breakfast and me a large Coke from Sonic (*Can't live without that*), I will then take them to the park or some sort of facility or activity where they are free to be kids! My kids do not like being indoors especially in our house on a regular basis they are bored to tears. I don't know why??? We have hundreds of toys, a swing set, life size play house, motorized vehicles and everything else under the sun that they never play with so I just quit buying them.  So, after our morning adventure we come home a little before lunch so I can make lunch and then we start whinding down for nap.  I will put them on a movie and then it's nap time. If I'm lucky I can get 2-3 hours kids free to work.  I cram as much as I can in that 3 hour period to keep up with my work and sometimes that doesn't work out either.  My goal is to work at least 5 hours a day M-TH and all day Friday since my mom watches the girls for me so I can get caught up.  Whatever I don't finish up with on a daily basis to get my hours in I have to complete at night after the girls go to bed at 8:30.  So say I only worked 2 hours during the day I will then need to work 4 hours at night to stay caught up and to get my hours. It's a chore but I love spending quality time with the girls and who needs sleep anyways right?!?! So as I sit here and blog at 9pm while still having a mound of work to do I better get busy and get to work :) Until next time pray for my sanity :)))) J/K XOXO Megan

Can you say HOT!

So this past weekend in Canton was our semi-annual sale month. We only do this twice a year in January and July at Canton, TX.  We have been a vendor in Canton, one of the world's largest flea markets, for over 8 years now. If you have never gone and love digging, and searching for fabulous junk to repurpose or even collect it is a must do! Anyways back to the sale this past weekend, it was soooooo HOT I don't mean a little hot, I mean 107 degrees and humid as heck.  However, all of our loyal, fabulous customers who came out and braved the weather got some steals! All jewelry was 75% off and tees $10!!! How do you get on the VIP list for savings you ask? Just register on our website: http://www.annettestouchofclass.com/ at the top left corner under the big 18 wheeler sign OR follow us on facebook.
