Yep I'm All outa F*%$'s Too.....

I read the best article EVER today!  It's called "20 Signs I'm Too Tired To Mom"  it's over on ScaryMommy and you can read it for yourself, but here are a few highlights:

"But sometimes? Sometimes I am simply a very tired person—a person too damn tired to juggle it all. I want to tell everyone, including my kids and the PTA, to juggle my balls.."  

and

"My daughter is sleeping in her clothes, AGAIN...."

I think this woman lives in my house....or maybe we're all this tired and over it, but we hide it well on Facebook.  I think I'm gonna start posting real pictures from my life.  Like this little gem:

This is Landry today at 3:00PM.  She has Elsa slippers on her feet....at daycare....on purpose.

Yes, she showed up in them and yes I knew.  I just didn't have it in me to fight socks and shoes on her little dictator feet this morning. 

As a matter of fact she not only showed up to daycare in slippers she had on the matching nightgown as well. (I plopped her inside and threw a bag of real clothes to Roz.  "the saint that can clothe the terrorist" and got the fuck outta there ASAP!)  I was all out of fucks y'all. 

And it's only Monday....


 

Baby steps (in pink light up heels)

I think we hit a milestone today....or my terrorists just act like terrorists in my presence to screw with me.

Yesterday I took a shower and left them sitting on the couch watching cartoons.
I fully expected to find them covered in something sticky and crying when I got out, but to my amazement THEY WERE IN THE SAME SPOT!!

For this they got bubbles in the bath.

They promptly ate the bubbles and smeared them in each others eyes creating a 15 minute freak out fest.  Now they will only get bubbles when they've been bad.  (Sort of a passive aggressive form of punishment.)

And true to form they tormented each other and the rest of us for the remainder of the night.

Lannie stole Jaxon's monkey slippers,
Jaxon stole (and wore) Lannie's princess heels,

Lannie spit on Jaxon,
Jaxon stole Lannie's banana,

 

And.....Both Terrorists plugged up the bathroom sink and left it to overflow so their duckies "could swim"

Baby steps I guess....
