We went to C-Arrow Stables for JJ's preschool field trip this morning. I was a little leery because of all the rain and the rain we were to get today. Of course we got to slosh in the mud and feed the animals and ride ponies!
Lately JJ has been getting into some trouble with tormenting his sister and not listening to mommy when she speaks. On some of these occasions he gets sent to his room. But since he can open the door, even with child proof door handle locks, I have to put up the baby gate to keep him contained. And even at that he has been able to figure out how to get out of that! So when he does go to his room this makes him very upset. And every now and then he starts throwing all of his things. Here are some of his things thrown out of his room and the toys on the floor and a picture of him cleaning said toys up. And then one of him sleeping from all the exhausting of throwing a fit! And, yes, he is in the computer chair!
We tied streamers to their door knobs in the morning and then made them follow them around the house to get to their baskets. Maddie was very interested in cracking open the hard boiled eggs we dyed. In this picture she is asking if she can open it up!
We held a small birthday party for the kiddos and the neighbors on Saturday. I wasn't about to clean up the house, cook, and then clean up again so we went to McDonald's. I brought the cake balls, let the kids eat and play, then open presents!
