Well, you get the picture. It was one of THOSE days.
In other words-you have to wait until tomorrow for Flashback Friday. I know, I know, then it won't be FRIDAY. But it's my blog and if I want a Saturday edition of Flashback Friday then, by golly, that's what I'll do!
That is, of course, assuming tomorrow goes better than today.
Perhaps I'll just put them all in swimsuits and lock them in the backyard. Then they can pee all they want! Right?
And just in case you were wondering...I still haven't brushed my teeth! I'll go do that right now.

who ever said being a stay at home mom was easy was the biggest LIAR under the sun. I have those days too.... its usualy Kim laughing at what my kids did that keeps me from wanting to hurt them. AND for consolation, my 3 year old is not doing so hot on the potty training either, even the poop training is out the window!
I'm not in favor at THOSE days either. I'm sorry that bites. I think you should totally stick them in their bathing suits tomorrow and send them outside. Pee all they want.
Sounds like an absolutely exhausting day. And I don't know what's worse: that the children kept peeing (I'm living that right now too) or that Sonic was out of diet DP.
I had one of those days to do to. I am coping with an open bottle. ;)
I heard that letting the kids run around without pants outside is really good way to potty train actually. Then they can see and feel when they go. Then you can just hose them off. So put on some sunscreen, get a Dr. Pepper and hang out in the backyard!
P.S. Potty training sucks and there's really nothing positive to say about it except that it's nice when it's over! Keep smiling, it does happen eventually.
I am so glad to hear someone else has days like that too. I am alwyas afraid my neighbors are going to call the cops on me for yelling at my children too much especially when one poops her pants and the other just plain won't listen. ugh! Oh well good luck with tomorrow,
Wow, what a day!
So I'm catching up and read this post 2nd (so now I know what you did with Zoey's toddler bed).
Good luck!
