Today has been 'one of those days'.... Both kids woke up being CooCoo. By 9am the hubs and I felt like we had already dealt with enough for an entire day after we had already re-directed 10 million fights and arguments. Phew. I'm exhausted! Both are in rare form today and we just fed them lunch and both went down for a mandatory nap... no questions asked... unless someone was bleeding or the house was on fire or their left leg needed to be amputated, they are not allowed out of their room until 'quiet time' is over. PERIOD.
We had family pictures taken last night at sunset at a restaurant on the water that some of our friends own. We even all climbed in the old shrimp boat (even Hyres!) and got some great pictures. I can't wait to share some with all of you. Some I know I can share as soon as I get them back, but some will have to be kept hidden until after I decide which ones will be included in our Christmas card pictures. The last time we did real family pictures like this was 2 years ago, on our 5th wedding anniversary. The next 'big' session I am planning on will be for our 10th (in 3 years) and I plan for us to go back to where we got married for the photo shoot, just like we did for our 5th anniversary. I plan to go back to Whitfield Square every 5 years with the kids for pictures. I think it will be so neat in the later years and to look back and see the changes of our family in 5 year time spurts right where we were married.
This morning, there must have been a big fire nearby because I had 2 firefighters dressed and scampering out the door!
Then one came back in having a MAJOR meltdown because he was not allowed to play with the water hose because it was FREEZING outside!!
Does anyone rent to rent a child (or children) today?! I have 2 available!
My alcoholic beverage will be prepared and consumed shortly!
