The Sass Sircus

I decided to change my blog name. As my brother so kindly put it….as a family of 6, its no longer “A Touch Of Sass” we really are a 3 ring circus. (We just don’t abuse elephants….)

We recently got new neighbors and the other morning as I pulled into my driveway, after running some errands, my new neighbor was working on his yard. His house is around the corner but his back yard is directly across the street from our driveway. I ran in the house very quickly to use the bathroom (Lexi was in the car with the kids). It was just one of those mornings, before I got the kids out I had to pee. With 4 kids…sometimes it can take awhile to get everyone out. But I digress, as I was coming back outside to get everyone out of the car the dogs got out. I came out screaming “GRETZKY!!” “RYKER!!” “GET IN THE HOUSE!!” “LEXI!! HELP ME!!!” I hear someone crying and I yell: “LEXI!! WHERE IS KENSINGTON?!?” Lexi took her out of the car and then put her down when she heard me yelling in a panic about the dogs. Poor Kensington somehow fell down in the driveway. At this point my neighbor is just standing across the street staring at us in disbelief. I scoop up Kensington, open the door and Logan and Kamryn jump out. They are fighting about something, who knows what. Probably because they don’t want to carry in the 6,000 toys they brought for the ride and are yelling at the other one to take them. I just let them argue, its whatever. They’ll figure it out. I then take Tenley out whos hungry and also crying. I swear I hear clown music in my head whenever I unload these kids from my car. A Honda Pilot, which is still much too small for us….and no! I won’t be getting a minivan.

Here we are!!! The Sass Sircus!! Welcome to the neighborhood. Oh, you thought it was quiet around these parts? Sorry about that. It hasn’t been quiet around here for a little bit. Really, not since I added 3 kids to my family in only 3.5 years! Whoops! Hope you like kids!!

Our neighbors do seem really nice and they have twin gandsons Kamryn’s age who spend weekends with them…so luckily they do like kids! But it was in that moment I realized I am that crazy lady who my neighbors look at and say: “Oh that’s Kristen Sass …. she has like a bazillion kids.” Yep! That would be me!

So from here on out….we are “The Sass Sircus”!!

Kuddos to my husband for coming up with the name. 

Love you!! Thanks for being our ring leader!
