My mornings are easier (sorta, lol)

I'm so excited (and this is sooo sad!). I saw in Sunday's paper that Menards had a 4 slot toaster on sale, so I went there yesterday and picked it up. What's wrong with the old toaster? Nothing, except that it only has 2 slots. With 4 kids, it takes forever to make toaster waffles, or bagels, or even toast in the morning! It's hard enough bringing one baby downstairs, change them, bring them into the kitchen and put them into their highchair, give them cheerios, pop two waffles in the toaster, run upstairs, get the 2nd baby, bring him downstairs, change him, bring him into the kitchen and put him into the highchair, give him cheerios, take out the two waffles, put two more waffles in, run upstairs, get the last baby, change her, bring her into the kitchen, give her cheerios, fetch the last two waffles out, put them aside, give one cooled waffle to Eddie, split the other cooled waffle in half, then half again and give a quarter to Ella and a quarter to Eddie. Then put milk in sippy cups and give each baby their sippy cup. Then make coffee for myself (I KNOW, I should do that first, but I'm just too lazy to run downstairs, make coffee, then run BACK upstairs to get a baby!!) and figure out what I'm going to eat! Are ya tired yet? All this takes around 40 min's each morning. The only way it gets quicker is if Jer is home. But anyway, this morning, when I brought the first baby into the kitchen, I put in 4 waffles into the toaster and a bagel for myself into the old toaster, got the 2nd baby and when I brought him into the kitchen, the food was done! By the time I brought the 3rd baby into the kitchen, the waffles were ready to eat! Whoo, hooo! They got their food faster, which means LESS whining! Oh, gotta love that!
