Day 1: A Success

I must admit that I have been feeling a little apprehensive about our Spring Break because I was a little afraid it might give me a preview of my summer that I wasn't really wanting to see. You see, the twins have been a little hard to handle lately. They have been fussing/arguing/tattling with/on each other pretty much non-stop. That makes for a long day when you are home with them on your own. I had already made up my mind that the plan would be to keep them as busy as possible to avoid that down time that can send them both over the edge. When they have too much "unplanned" time, they begin to shout things like:
{Remember Tee-ta is Rush's name for SF}
"Wush touch me!!!"
"Tee-ta take my car!!!"
"Wush tell me no!!!!"
"Tee-ta push me!!!"
"She take my woom." (This means she is sitting on his portion of the chair and half.)
"Dats mine!! I have it first!!!!"

So, to keep me from having to hear these things, we had a plan. It was to stay outside for as much of the morning and afternoon as possible. It worked mostly. We played outside until lunch time, and then we had a picnic outside for lunch. Then we attempted to nap. Then, we played outside some more. The afternoon time included digging up dandelions from the neighbors yard and filling the seat of the Cozy Coupe with them. Who cares, right? They had fun, and that's what bath tubs are for because they were FILTHY!! Like had to get out the nail brush filthy. But there was very little fighting, so my faith was restored that we can, indeed, enjoy our summer break together.










Are you loving the "two pony-tails" as much as I do? I just have to work on that center part in the back. Someone tell me how to do that.
