Never, ever, ever brag about your kids in your blog because as it goes, "Pride cometh before the fall." It is now 10:55 p.m. according to my computer clock. Hubby is at school again working on his paper. Tonight my movie of choice you ask...well it is Baby Einstein. What else???? Why am I watching Baby Einstein? Well, I'm not, silly! The baby is! Yes, at 10:55 p.m. I have nothing left, I am too tired. I put the white flag up and surrendered.
Today has been LONG! It did start at 6:00 a.m. and as any mom knows, it is just go, go, go all day long with little ones. I did get a chance to blog earlier during Peanut's rest time and Pumpkin's nap. And I told you all about last night's horrors and how they would never happen again because Peanut learns her lesson the first time. Well, about that...that is obviously FALSE because the BABY is WATCHING Baby Einstein at 10:55PM PEOPLE!!!!!
I put Peanut to bed starting at 8:30 p.m., which didn't go so smoothly. It might not have helped that I was drained and worn out by bed time but we got it done. Then the baby's turn. I gave her the bottle and she was out. I put her to bed, took Peanut potty one last time (she waits until I put Pumpkin to bed and always conveniently has to go potty). I sternly reminded her that we do not get out of bed and we most certainly do not "entertain" the baby if she wakes up.
I am NOT kidding within 10 minutes the party had started AGAIN!!!!! I went upstairs to find a lamp on, a giggling baby and a running girl! I was not happy...punishment was given and all candy/gum taken away the next day. I now had to start over with the baby who had a power nap and was ready to go again!!!!
I have been up two more times since...one to find Peanut "washing" her hands and one to find her jumping on her bed. All cookies and sweets of any kind are now GONE for tomorrow. (She has a wicked sweet tooth.) We talked about her disobedience to Mommy, Daddy and Jesus also. She is BLATANTLY disobeying me PEOPLE!!!!
So now I am completely worn down and out of patience...so the baby...well she is watching Baby Einstein at 10:55 p.m., actually it is now 11:04 p.m. I am hoping with all hope that she is getting sleepy and will fall asleep soon after the movie, because as you know from the previous post she will be up BRIGHT AND EARLY to start our day for us. (Did I mention that Daddy is doing a HUGE project and preparing for two HUGE exams???? I can not wait for this semester to be done. I think his girls need Daddy time and Mommy needs some alone time, BIG TIME!)
So, the part that I blogged about earlier, where I said that Peanut is now fully potty trained....well I now expect to her to have accidents all day tomorrow, because like they say, "Pride cometh before the fall."
