You know what's frustrating?

in Babies on the Brain

Leaving a brand new magazine that you haven't even read yet on your extremely high bed, the one "safe place" left in the entire house that your kids can't climb on yet, only to hear a "riiiiiiip" followed by "oh no, what happened?"  Then you walk out of the bathroom where you were trying to make your hair look somewhat presentable for a grocery store trip, to see your daughter sitting in the middle of the "safe place" bed holding a magazine page in one hand and the rest of the magazine in the other.  While she was supposed to be sitting on the floor reading her own books and playing with her own toys. 

::cries::  There is no sacred place left in this entire house.  The innocent sounding "what happened" was just further salt in the wound.

    The top of the refrigerator is about the last safe place around these parts.  I used to put things on the bathroom countertop, but now she climbs up, sits in the sink, and plays with my makeup and hair stuff.  :Sighs:

    Hope your magazine is still readable.  Naptime soon?

    I wish.  We all slept longer than usual this morning and then they took forever to eat breakfast so we've been kind of lazing around instead of getting errands done like I needed to.  We *have* to make a quick grocery store trip before nap, and find lunch somewhere in there as well.

    I feel your pain.

    And also? I may need my eyes checked, because your ticker says your kids will be 2 in less than 2 months.  ::runs away::

    LOL, no need to run.  If I had any doubts of their age lately, their ATTITUDES have laid those to rest.  ::glares toward playroom::  The terrible two's apparently don't magically just switch on at the second birthday.  They can come early.

    Oh the drawing.  Or coloring as Riley calls it.  You cannot leave a pen, pencil, marker, crayon, or a friggin' piece of chalk sitting where she can see it, because if she sees it you either have to let her color or she melts down for a good 15 minutes straight over it.  "Cooooloooooooor!  Color Mama!" followed by sobs and dramatic crying, followed by another hour of being super whiny about everything.  OMG.

    And thanks!  They do have their cute moments still.  ;)

    You just reminded me of my mom! She used to scream that nothing of hers was sacred!

    I'm sorry sweetie, but you just brightened my day :)
