Yesterday was an eventful day to say the least! Started out with us going over to Raeann's in the morning. We spent about 3 hours there. The kids all had a blast except for William hitting. He's in that stage really bad. After that we went home and saw Phil for a few minutes before he went to work. After he left I was letting the kids watch a cartoon before taking a nap. About 15min later Makenzie came in and told me Nick was sound asleep. I went into the pool room and he had fallen asleep with his knees on the floor and his head laying on his rocking chair. He was apparently very exausted!
After I put Nick to bed I decided I needed a nap myself since I had been up in the middle of the night with Nick the night before. Makenzie was really into what she was watching on tv so I informed her of what I was doing and she said it was fine and that she would just watch tv. I laid in bed a bit before falling asleep and she never moved, so I thought things would be okay. Well about an hour after I fell asleep I got woke up by Makenzie saying "Mom! I can't turn on the bathtub because I have paint all over my hands!" This is NOT how I imagined being woken up. She had paint tracked through my bathroom. I got her in the bath then went to check out the rest of the mess. She had just painted on a notebook, but she got it all over her small table and on the carpet. This was NOT washable paint, and she is a repeat offender on this particular offense.

ReplyDeleteAfter Makenzie got out of the bath she then had 3 hours to clean her room. It was a complete wreck and you couldn't even see the floor. The next three hours were filled with lots of screaming and crying. Finally at 7pm I went into her room with a box and garbage bags. After a few minutes Makenzie came in and helped me get everything ready to go be donated. She has lots of toys, stuffed animals and clothing to be donated. She actually took this very well. I told her that I will be boing through the clothes and everything that fit and was in good condition will be counted. That will then be the ammount of items she will be responsible for earning money to buy new clothes at garage sales. I really hope that this punishment sticks in her mind!!!
After all that I put the kids to bed. Five minutes after Mo fell asleep my mom called. She informed me that there was a possible tornado heading out way. I turned on the news to confirm this and then very quickly packed a few things and headed to my mom's house. By the time we got there the tornado warning was expired. Since we live in a mobile home, I'd rather be safe than sorry. So, the kids and I spent the night at Mimi's. Of course bedtime had to start all over again cause they were so excited to be at Mimi's.
