Snot & drama

Ever had a day (or 2 or 3) that consisted of just that--snot & drama? That was my day yesterday and apparently today as well.

My children were all a disaster yesterday. Josiah is teething or SOMETHING because he was as crabby as could be. Sensitive to EVERYTHING and crying everytime I turned around.

Brooklyn is in the throws of being 2 and man, I am feeling it! She thinks it is really cute to say "Mommy" as loud as she can, as fast as she can and as many times as possible...despite anything I am doing. Like changing diaper, talking on the phone, praying, prepping snacks, etc. So when I say, "What Brooklyn?" She just smiles at me and says, "hi." Cute I know...but after the 100th time, not so much. Not to mention crying all day with just excessive snot and nothing anyone does makes her happy...quite the opposite.

McKenna is actually being pretty good, so I guess I can't complain too much. She is currently obsessed with being the "leader" so I am seeing a lot of running to the next thing and knocking down her toddling brother (which results in mega tears---drama--- and oh, yeah, snot) and pushing Brooklyn (which results in drama and snot).

Brooklyn is producing so much snot and stubbornly refuses to use a tissue so she smears it all over her face and then the next thing she touches sticks and dries to the snot. I found grass, one of McKenna's hairs and crumbs caked into her cheek at various cleanings during the day. And you can bet, those cleanings didn't go over too well...resulting in lots of drama and yes, more snot.

So yeah, rough day. :)

LOL And how 'bout those cleanings where their faces become raw and chapped and, inevitably, more snot and drama!
