So sometimes this month, lil ol' me became a mother of three overnight! just like that! I know what you're thinking right? someone saw it fit to leave bumight by herself with three kids? #issorait I have never been responsible for anyone other than myself. My younger sister is just a year younger.
I remember one time when my sister had arranged to babysit a neighbor's kid. she had gone out when they brought the baby, and i was alone by myself. The baby started crying. I did everything i knew how to do, but she didnt stop. so what did Bumight do? I closed the door on the baby and went to get my sister!
So where were we, - yeah! mommy Bumight! Funny thing is I had been helping my friend with the kids for a bit, so I thought, this shouldnt be hard right? wrong!
#mommybootcamp day1
well, i was basically exhausted the first day, and was going to go get them from the neighbor's place, i just woke up and saw them standing over my bed. fine. Its going to be a long day with 3 kids!We didnt go to school that day, just went out to see my friend. I kinda had help today so it wasnt too bad.
#mommybootcamp day 2
Usually, I help my friend with getting the kids ready for school, and I thought I already know the routine right? wrong! It took us waaay longer to get ready for school. As #mommybootcamp was coinciding with my #step3bootcamp I also had to get ready to go to the library as well. Got all three kdis ready and we made it to school...just 15 mins late!
#mommybootcamp day 3
#epicfail : didnt check homework!
of course the kids knew to ask me if they could play outside, and I acquiesce, knowing that it would save me some stress, I however forgot to check their bag packs for homework and any school correspondence! Ergo, we didnt do homework, and we were the only kids wearing uniform to school even though it was a dress down day at school!
Forgot to add that we made it to school on time! while I and my baby went to the library....we both took a nap in there somehow. The librarian told me we looked cute!
#mommybootcamp day 4
I had a photoshoot scheduled for today and I had originally planned to take my brood with me. Slight change of plans though, got someone to watch them while I had the whole day to myself!
Woke up, cleaned up the whole house, deposited the kids, and got ready to go to my photoshoot. Was done by 9pm. collected the kids. House was promptly

#mommybootcamp goes to church! day 5
I had our clothes picked out the night before, I was determined to make it to church on time. I had all four of us ready to walk out of the door by 10:00am. we made it to praise and worship! Now by this time my kids were really feeling this mommy bootcamp ish, and were clinging to me throughout church. iro ni o! I made sure everybody stayed in their class.
End of service: car wont start, 99 degree weather, 3 kids. sha sha, i handled it.
Bootcamp came to an end today
Morale of the story:
1. People can give you advice from afar, but if they're not IN your shoes, they dont know how your situation feels like. I never knew what hassle my friend was going through until I stepped into her shoes. I never knew why she was exhausted all day until i took over. the moment I finally managed to get them dressed, I suddenly feel tired and want a nap!
2. I will make an awesome mom...all I just need now is a sperminator! any takers?
