Ah....mommy kharma

Today is just one of those bad mommy days. I'm short tempered with the kids, it's been raining all day and I've had to be out in it running errands, I have a headache...just not really in a great mood and the kids are testing me. I made them dinner, put it on there plates with the divided trays. Handed it to them, and Ryleigh immediately spills half her milk all over her chicken nuggets. I sharply said "Well dammit, Ryleigh! This is rediculous!" and stomped over, picked up her plate, dumped out her nuggets in the garbage, dried her plate and made her new nuggets. Yeah, it was an accident and I shouldn't have been mad at her, much less spoken to her like that, but I'm human and I'm not having a great day. I'm taking her her new dinner, and I sternly say "Now you need to settle down and sit still and eat your dinner. DO NOT spill again!" Set the plate down....and I promptly knock over the remaining half of her milk. She just stares at me bug eyed, covers her mouth. I know she wants to laugh but even she knows Mommy is not in a great place today. I just shook my head and started laughing. Apologized to her, we cleaned it up and now....hopefully....we can continue dinner with no more messes. I hate days like this, and I really hate it when my attitude and short temper come back to bite me in the butt!! Hopefully I can get through the rest of the day much better!

Another baffling Boy-ism

So we decided to tackle the whole potty training thing with Parker today. Up until today I hadn't really even thought about it. In fact I just went out and bought him some "big boy undies" today. Of the six pair that I bought, five are currently downstairs waiting to be washed. I just asked him a little while ago if he wanted to go sit on the potty and go pee-pee. His response? "No, I no have go pee-pee, but I have to toot." Then he actually passed gas, giggled and said "see?" Then ran out of the room. Boys! I think I am going to have my work cut out for me getting this boy potty trained!

Here he is sporting his "Cars" undies. He's so proud! (although he wasn't too proud to pee in them about 5 minutes after I took this picture!)
