too much

too much fun going on.
too many treats.
too much attention.

back to the basics today.

figure out how to entertain yourself for...umm...2 seconds!
figure out how to get along with each other.
figure out how to be content with a normal lunch and NO treat after.

NO! your snack at 9 am can't be an ice cream sandwich!

going to try to reclaim my children and remind them who they are....and who they aren't.

summer is fun.
but "un-doing" the effects of all this fun isn't fun.
{but necessary...}

here we go.

it's a good thing i'm not their mom - at this point in pregnancy, i probably would have JOINED them in having an ice cream sandwich for a snack at 9 am!!!

You gotta do it, no if, and's or but's about it. I get asked for snacks of candy at 9:00am, I'm glad I'm not alone.

Every AM my two year old attempts to sneak into the freezer for a little "skinny cow" post breakfast treat.

I'm with you girl!!!!!!

Ice cream just tastes best in the morning ;-)
Reigning 'em in....that's a familiar concept around here from time to time too. Hope it's going well for you.
