1. Cameron always, ALWAYS wants to listen to ‘Rock and Roll All Nite’ by KISS and ‘Ruby’ by The Kaiser Chiefs. It’s OK by me if I never hear these songs again.
2. Lily has taken to chewing on her hair. I’ve threatened to shave it off.
3. I’m convinced they are the slowest eaters in the world. It routinely takes them upwards of 40 minutes to eat breakfast. This leads to lots of nagging and unpleasantness every morning as we try to get out the door to work.
4. Cameron can’t just go to bed at night. He’s often up in 5 – 10 minute intervals at least a couple of times after we tuck him in.
5. Lily must be channeling her adolescence because the girl is so very sassy sometimes. This, of course, lands her in trouble for making nasty faces to us and THEN when we follow through on punishment she tries to back peddle and swears that she’ll be good. Too late sister! You should have made that choice when I asked you the first time. So, we do this song and dance for a few rounds until she’s ready to accept our terms upon first offer. It’s exhausting.
Choices, it’s all about those choices! We get the dreaded eye roll and deep sigh which I am pretty sure he got from me so that makes it all the more infuriating!
The hair chew… ugh. I used to pick at my split ends and it drove my poor mother insane.
Sorry that I find a little comfort in knowing you’ve got a “miss sassy pants” at your house too. Oh the drama and sassiness my sweet girl has been laying on us lately! Must be 5…kindergarten…end of summer? Regardless, I hope it ends for all of us very soon!
