...today has been a little stressful...
...too many appointments/errands...
...Mike's working late...
...Ads is sick , barfing {ick}...
...lots of last minute details for
grandma's {permanent} visit...
...Paislee now occupies Luke's top bunk...
...all this has made me a little {lot} ornery...
But to the point - roommates and my adventure
{4 times/70 minutes} in getting them to sleep...
1- Luke is climbing into bed w/ Pais...he wants to sleep by her, he is told {by aforementioned ornery mom}to get in his own bed and not get out or else he will have to sleep with Miley.
2- Ornery mom enters noisy room to find Paislee's bed filled with stuffed animals which means Luke disobeyed and got out of bed, right? I yell at Luke - then look at the basket of stuffed animals pulled up to the bed, wrong! Oops! He had very carefully gotten each "friend" for Pais without leaving his bed. He's now crying in fear of sleeping with the dog.
3- "Quiet! Go to sleep!"
4- Very loud noises over and over, mom opens door, and Luke's reply is " I told Paislee to stop roaring but she won't!" and as gruff as possible, the {not so ornery, trying not to laugh} mom says "Paislee, no more roaring!"
...my kids love each other...
...what more could a mom ask for?...
