Shew the "joys" of Raising Boys?

What a busy weeks it's been already with the three little monkeys. It started with Sunday when my dad brought over the pallet furniture he made for my fire pit. I put the two little guys to bed, locked the front door and came around back to help unload the stuff. No more than five minutes was I back there and E and C were out of the house with Scooter, our dog, following them. Scared me so bad I cried for around two hours.


We implemented a new discipline for them. First time warning, second time sit right where you are, third time you sit a long time. This appears to be working well.


Then there is the issue where C (2 year old) wants to take diaper off and run amuck in his room peeing and pooping in the floor but truly has no interest in potty training. I swear I will never have enough sheets to last a week with these boys. I also swear I will never get the urine smell completely out of that room no matter what I do. I am probably going to end up hiring a professional cleaning service. Yay for cash out of savings...not! Maybe I can find a groupon.


Then there is the smart mouthing that K is going through. He is too smart for his own good. He called me a "d-bag" tonight. Not sure where he heard that and he certainly don't know what it means but dang.


But on a higher note my furniture turned out amazing!(I'll post pics later it's not letting me post)

Sunday Fun Day


My favorite kind of Sunday Fun Day... a free one. Today we took the kids on a trip to the splash pad in our neighborhood for a picnic and water day. We had a blast. DS1 and DS3 jumped right in the water and got drenched. DS2 due to his super powers (he is on the Autism Spectrum and has SPD)  played by the water and got very upset when he was put in the water. *Note to self* NEVER DO THAT AGAIN. We really had a great day. The kids loved it and hammed it up for some pictures. My fair skin beauties got a bit red. While I didn't burn or tan... stupid acne medicine!

This may become a weekend ritual.
