Madi: Mommy, Tutu Mommy
Me: Okay Madi, you can wear your tutu to school today.
Madi: Tutu Gracie too Mommy
Me: Yes Madi, Gracie can wear her tutu too
If you've been following us for a while you know that there is quite a process for Ricky to leave to work. All of them have to give Ricky kisses and tell him they love him, Madi has to walk him to his truck, give kisses, hugs, and tells him to "be careful Daddy" "Daddy, Stay? Stay?" "Love you Daddy" but now she has to drive his truck to the culda-sac while honking the horn. Then she tells him bye all over again and says "I drove truck VROOM VROOM" every. single. day. now!
We picked the kids up from school today and they were very happy to see us but then Gracie decided to have a meltdown and throw herself on the floor screaming. What did I do? I stood her butt up, told her we don't act that way, and spanked her butt. Yep, this Momma doesn't roll that way! We are not going to have one of "those" kids. She decided to throw another fit when we got home so she is laying in her bed now for a time out... Today isn't her day.
We are so proud of Brody, he got one of the girls' toys and fixed it. Basically he had to stand the Barbie's foot in a tiny hole to stand her up and he did it right away. That is huge for him with the vision he has. So awesome!
I think we are breaking up with our school this next school year no matter if Brody and Gracie get into PPCD or not. We love where they are now but they are always out of school. Since the program follows the school districts calender for holidays, school is always out on Mondays, well that means the kids are always home. It's so crazy. During December/ January they were out for 5 weeks. That is a lot of time off especially when you still pay full tuition those months. The other thing is the kids will be three by then and will need more than two days. I have found a program that is three days per week and is affordable. I'm going to tour the school on Thursday. It's also a Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays which will solve the so many days off problem. It is so crazy how fast programs fill up around here and how cut throat they are. I don't want any part of that and my kids won't go to a place like that either.
The windows should be finished this week. I'm so excited about that. Get the house back to normal and not have to worry about having someone in the house working sounds wonderful to me!
I'll update again soon.
