So today went a little better! No trips to the emergency room, so that is an improvement. I did however request a day out of the house as we all were going a little squirley, especially me. So the solution to the problem was a trip to Toys r Us, and an afternoon at the movies.
After an ever pain saking decision, Olivia finally decided on a Princess play cell phone and a Littlest Pet Shop, Benjamin of course had no problem deciding upon a Bakugon his newest obsession, and Isaac was happy with a Hot Wheels Dinky car. How I long for the days when a $1.25 priced toy would satisfy the other two..lol!
From there we headed off to the movies, we discovered the Rainbow Cinemas matinee show is only $4.25 vs $15.00 at the larger cinemas, and all we sacrificed was 3-D...no big deal, I really don't like that technology, my eyes just don't adjust to it and the kids get tired of wearing the
3-D glasses really quick. We saw the adorable movie "G-Force", the kids really loved it. Even Isaac laughed at the fuzzy little ginnypigs that stared as super spies for the FBI. Too cute!
The rest of the day amounted to a frustrated trip to the grocery store, and a evening at home trying to keep Ben from doing back flips off the sofa...I swear that child has no fear, in fact while at the mall today where the theatre is he actually attempted to walk down an escalator staircase....I don't know how he gets away from us so quick, but I guess when you are running after a 2 year old the opposite direction, and a 3 year old who is climbing the rails overlooking the bottom floor he takes full advantage of our diverted attention. Dangerous enough is the fact that he is attempting this, but on top of the fact that one arm is in a sling with a broken arm...gosh...I have no words.
Bed time tonight was a blast, the kids didn't settle down to sleep until 10:30 even though they were put in bed at 8:00pm. Typical to other nights they play and interchange sleeping arrangements until one or the other get so tired that they either a)pass out from exhaustion or b) make enough noise that Mom or Dad have to threaten them with some consequence if they don't comply...tonight it was both.
Anyways the important thing is that they are now sleeping and I finally have a few minutes of silence to watch some of my shows...I love my PVR!
