Ugh!  Mine do!  I’m exhausted!  It was just one of those mornings where I woke up cranky because I just wanted to sleep a little bit longer….it was already 8:30! Time to get up!  So I got up and shook off the bad tude.  I was super excited because today was the big to-do at the library to celebrate Dr. Seuss’s 100^th birthday!  ONE HUNDRED, 100!

We had an easy morning getting ready and since it was a birthday H just knew she would be getting a cupcake so I told them we would go for a treat after.  The celebration sucked.  It was a news anchor, the sheriff, and a librarian that each read a Dr. Seuss book; do you realize how long those books are?!  I guess I never paid attention since I was the one reading to my snuggle bugs.

Before the reading began the Jaycee’s mascot bear was walking around which scared the crap out of my girls and they literally were crying and clutching me for dear life.  A few friends were laughing, once they saw the bear coming, they just knew how the girls would react.  It is sad but funny to watch both of them climbing all over me as if they want to get inside of me.  Of course I break out in a sweat and the bad mood starts showing its ugly face again.

Thank God it was over quickly.  We picked up a free book and checked out our others and left.

they love self check out

We made a quick pit stop to get bubble bath and while on our way I get a text.  You know one of those innocent texts but for some reason they annoy the hell out of you? So as this is coming in the girls start getting a little wild.  I would have thought they burned up all their energy with their fear in the library.

We get in and out of the store with a few annoyances because all the Easter stuff is out and they wanted every cute stuffed animal they saw.

Now this stupid Robby doll I’ve mentioned before has to come with us everywhere but since I won’t let the girls attempt to drag it outside of the car I have to buckle the stupid thing in the car seat so no one steals it or she doesn’t get lost.  IT’S A DOLL, IT ISN’T GOING ANYWHERE!

OK we are back in the car and heading to the cutest deli (The Acorn Market) every!  We pull in and:

• I open the car door, girls run out into the street!  They have never done this before.  I scream they come back.
• We make it to the porch where they are free to run around and H slips on the mossy wet (it’s been raining for days) ramp after telling her not to run 10 times
• H bounces her rubber ball so hard and of course it flings into the one opening that leads under the deck
• H starts crying
• My sister and niece arrive, whew
• Get sandwiches, eat, they mostly whine about getting their treat

That's a BIG sandwich

• Fine eat your damn cookie
• H throws her mini quarter sized doll, gone.
• Cousin goes and finds it
• Talking to sister H drops to the grassy lawn, which is still wet, I tell her to get up so L rolls around instead
• They run into each other fall down
• They then run through the mulch, that they were told to stay off of
• At this point I am so flippin’ annoyed and Katy, and her daughter are laughing so L gives me a roll the eyes look
• H flicks the mulch with her foot
• We get home, they go inside and I unpack the car
• Are you kidding me?  There is no big bad wolf so why are all your toys and you  hiding under the covers!
• Play room is now destroyed

The girls and most toys are under that blanket

UGH!  We are now home, they are napping and I am still annoyed wondering how to summons a 6 pack of Sam Adams to my front porch….
