not this cute anymore!the monday after thanksgiving sux. it was a rough day all around. Aaron came home from work an hour early and I was thrilled... only to find out he had a fever of 104. He laid down within minutes and fell asleep before 6. which left me trying to keep 5 kids quiet. family home evening was a bust.
I decided to take them shopping because we needed medicine and my christmas cards and party invites were ready. the older boys wanted to stay home and read (nerds) so I took Simon and Ro to the store in their pjs. Worst idea ever. Two kids is ten times harder then 5 kids... depending on which two kids you put together. I wanted to leave my kids in the shopping cart. or sell them like kittens outside the store.
The drive home was terrible. Tears came out of my eyes because I was so frustrated. my baby girl screamed the entire drive... 20 solid minutes. She wasn't crying, she was screaming. Anything I passed back to her, she threw on the ground. I came home, unloaded the milk and left everything else in the car. I can take care of it in the morning..
Simon stayed up past everyone watching videos on our YouTube channel. He kept playing this particular video I shot in the pet store last week. I realize she's happy and she makes cute faces, but she starts out with the scream I hate. Maybe one day I will appreciate it, but right now it brings tears to my eyes.
Girls are a pain in the butt. but she's pretty cute too... now that she's finally asleep.

My youngest (13 months) has a scream too, at all meal times. He screams his head off and thrashes around when he thinks we are eating something he isn't, when he hates the food, when he wants more food, when he wants a drink, when he is all done, etc. It is getting pretty hard, and we all hate meal times. I am sorry for your screamer, I've got no clue. At least I know he will grow out of it, hopefully sooner.

Hahaha....oh yes, the scream.....Vi has one, it's more of a grunt/scream but she employs it at many many times during the day. Mostly if you are restricting her in any way ie in a cart, in your arms, in a highchair..... it's a gem a real gem. We've been working on sign language and that is starting to help, but NOT fast enough!
My one and only girl has a scream that makes me want to climb a wall(and make a run for it) She is almost 7! :P''''
