It has been so cold out lately but today was a really nice day out. :) I made the green smoothie and Darin made hard egg sandwich. The kids tried the but didn't want to eat them. Alexa had a piece of cheese and then she got a buttered bagel. Darin thinks she should only be getting 1/2 bagel. We had a good morning and Darin was able to leave earlier as he needed to get gas. I, on the other hand, got into work about 5 min late which isn't bad except I had to reboot the computer and didn't clock in until 7:11.
The carpets at work had been shampooed yesterday and more GI moves were taking place. The big conf table was finally moved downstairs!!! Busy day with setting up fellow interviews and other stuff. During lunch I typed up some house rules and consequences.
I picked up the kids a little late and checked them out around 4:20. We got home around 4:30 - not bad! The kids at PB & Nutella sandwiches (2 each) when Darin realized the Nutella has so much sugar in it... We had already told them that they could have an ice cream sandwich afterwards so they were full of sugar!
I got upset with Alexa for whining/complaining about something and I squeezed her face while telling her to stop it. I didn't realize I had squeezed some of her neck skin and she was crying because it hurt. I think I need a behavioral specialist too. I don't want to hurt my kids! Earlier in the day Jake had made a face after I asked him to do something he didn't want to do so I had him hold his tongue for 1 minute (read that online as a consequence today). I probably should have just had Alexa hold her tongue... I have to remember to keep a cool head - it is so hard in the moment though. LORD - HELP ME!!!
I had washed the kids bedding so after the kids bath and Raz Kids, Darin helped me make their beds. Jake fell asleep really quickly. I read the rules and consequences to A and laid down with her a little bit. I was then able to read a couple chapters in ECLIPSE. It is 9:36 now and I will probably still look through some emails/facebood/news... I hope I get to bed by 10:30!
Night! :)
