Last night when I put the kids to bed we discussed that when they awoke this morning their first jobs were to be the clean their rooms (more like disaster zones!) before they could watch tv. Well, Gabe obeyed me, but Sophia was having none of that and started throwing a tantrum, I have threatened many, many times if they don't pick up their toys I am getting a garbage bag and throwing whatever is on the floor away...well Sophia did not believe me and when I showed up in her room with one and started throwing EVERYTHING in it, the tantrum only got worse! ( took the bag outside and put it in the back of my van, she thinks I really threw them away).
Sometime later the tantrum subsided and we were able to leave the house and go and get our hair cuts at Jim and Sue's house. This was to be a BIG day for Sophia as she has not had her hair cut before and she was asking all sorts of questions to her brother about if it hurt, she was very nervous! Teagan happened to be visiting Sue's and got up in the chair to show Sophia how things were done.
Sophia still was not convinced so she ended up setting on my lap and Jim took pictures for us...this being her FIRST real hair cut we asked for a small bit of her hair to place in her baby book :)
Gabe actually held his own today and did not cry...so we are making progress!
After the hair cuts we stopped by McDonalds to get some lunch before heading to visit Grandma and Pappy's...where the kids got MORE Halloween candy because Pappy insisted on buying candy this year thinking we would stop in on Halloween night (and we didn't), so he gave them more candy today!
This afternoon I worked the store and the kids watched movies up in the office.
