Today marked what has become the "norm" since spring...dreary, cool weekend weather. It is very frustrating and does little to improve my mood. All week it is beautiful and then when the weekend arrives...poof!-instant crap weather. This is the dreariest stretch of Colorado weather I have seen since I moved here over 3 years ago. To have more than one grey day in a month is unheard of...let alone every weekend since March. It makes for VERY long weekends..and not in the good way. The boys become caged in animals who fight and cry and undo all the cleaning I just did--I just want to run and hide. Today especially, was long. Sawyer woke up to a major poop explosion so I was giving him a bath and doing loads of laundry at 7:30am. Then came the attempt at house cleaning...I no sooner got everything cleaned and sanitized when Sawyer upended his snack and drink all over the floor which made Liam laugh and laugh and then upend HIS plate on the floor just to be (in his eyes) funny. NOT cool. Actually Liam was in total defiant turd mode. Everything I told him not to do he would purposefully look at me and do and then laugh, LOUDLY afterwards. This is something we have been struggling with recently...everything is just one big joke to him. He gets in trouble and laughs and does it again ten seconds later then laughs louder. It is VERY, VERY frustrating, to say the least. He will look at you sweetly and act like he is sorry and then do it all over again. These are the kind of days that I guiltily admit to looking forward to getting into bed and pulling the covers up over my head...only to awake and do it all over again tomorrow.
Good night.
