Punishment

I swear Jamie has been sent into world as punishment for something I / we have done :roll:

His tantrums so far this evening must have deafened everyone within a few square miles and we're only got as far through the night-time routine as bath-time... >:-[

At least we got him to eat some dinner in the end so he won't be awake hungry in the night

Had a proper attack of cluckyness in IKEA earlier, I need to remember these moments of extreme frustration whenever the hormones attack - what if the 3rd was another one like Jamie?

*argh* :-/

My dad has been known to bemoan his lot for having four such totally different children, and wonders what he did to deserve it!!

  At least only one of the 2 is stroppy, don't think my sanity would last long if they were both like that...

    Think we all took it in turns, with the two boys fighting non-stop...

      They've been perfecting their fighting skills over these holidays

      Ah yes, he sulks very well, the other one is just a lot more vocal when he's upset about something

      Molty Tower was destroyed...
      
      I'm in deep mourning, now.

        Only for a short time, then it was rebuilt like the three little pigs

        It was safe though as neither could hit it from three feet away

Me and my sister made a good team as kids, I came up with the plans and she carried them out, so only one of us was actually in trouble I hope my kids are boring like me!

He was a total star in Walberswick, both of them were mega chilled kids. Remember that.

  They always love being outside, that's a major part of the problem 'cos we don't have a garden here and they need to run around and burn off energy
  Ah well, we're spending a large chunk of tomorrow at my in-laws' house and they have a nice big garden!

    Mini was like that, still is at times. The free-runnin seems to have tailed off a bit though. *phew*

      Free-running would be a bit hard around here, there aren't that many buildings *phew*

        They're being extra lovely at the moment 'cos they're signed up for a basketball club each afternoon this week and I've threatened not to take them if they don't behave

  I've told him frequently that if he wasn't so cute I'd have taken him back a long time ago
  I'd love school holidays if I had a break from the kids...

I love my kids to distraction ... but ... I never want another one. Three is WAY enough! When they are good, they are very, very good, when they are bad, wicked doesn't get a look in.

  2 is definitely enough, the boys are killing each other... damn these holidays!

    We're so lucky to have such a big garden. I can chuck them out there and it knackers them out
