The kids were up WAY too early. Wanted cereal...oh! How dare they make me get out of bed!!!! It's too cold outside. They got their Trix...cause, you know...they're for kids!
Daddy was grumpy. Mommy was cold. The Pirate and The Mermaid were playing nice and wanted apples for lunch. Apples????? The Pirate and Mermaid love apples...she ate hers to the core! She was mad because we made her put it in the trash.
Then, after the sugar rush kicked in...not so nice playing. Running, screaming, just being loud and mean. So, I told the Mermaid to pick up her toys and in fifteen minutes, it was time for a nap. She disappeared while I was dealing with the Pirate and I went to check on her. She was in bed already!!!!!!! She put herself down for a nap. Well, she for got to do something...
When she got up, she has peed her bed. YUP! Well, then she began to cry and carry on because that is what she does. I didn't even yell at her! I think she got punished when in China...not sure, just guessing. Well, in the wash went her linens and in the tub went the Mermaid. She does not like her hair washed nor her face. And, if the water just isn't right...she will let you know!!!!
Daddy and the Pirate were out doing whatever while the Mermaid was getting bathed. They brought pizza home for dinner. YUMMY! Does pizza have sugar in it???
Because....
after dinner the Mermaid had a temper tantrum because she did not get to feed the dog (screaming tantrum). Naughty mat.....
The Pirate had a meltdown over the Wii game he was playing with his dad. Naughty mat...
The Mermaid pulled her underwear down in the middle of the living room and refused to pull them back up. She had a dress on today. Daddy sent her to the naughty mat and she would not sit down. Mommy intervened. Naughty mat....
( I asked her why...she replied, "because I wanted too!" Lovely...)
The Pirate whinning about playing a certain game...Daddy put the Wii away. Meltdown of the Pirate...
Chasing, screaming and just being LOUD again....bedtime! The Mermaid goes down saying, "Close eyes Mommy. No play!" She's out in ten minutes.....
The Pirate can't sleep because his Webkinz are locked in the car. Had to bribe him to go to bed and I went outside to get them.
Mommy COLD again! The Pirate is finally out.
The only good thing...I can think of right now. Is that, we got the Mermaid's hair into PIGTAILS!!!! She cried at first...but they stayed. She was happy. Girly Girl hairstyle.
She keeps asking about my earrings. One thing at a time!!!!
Tomorrow HAS got to be a better day.....
We're going to the movies.....
slow down cowboy and cowgirl!
Waiting for our popcorn.
We decided it was finally time to try a movie with The Mermaid. She has seen trailors for the movie Bolt on the TV...so, we checked Yahoo Movies and off we went. Well, Yahoo Movies had the wrong times. So, we had time to wait. Hence, the kids on the horses. The wind was blowing pretty hard...they had fun. We went and got some popcorn to eat, went to the potty and found some seats. The Mermaid loved the "BIG TV" (as she calls it) and the movie Bolt. She made it thru the whole movie without a problem. BIG GIRL!!!!!
