I have even locked myself in the bathroom just to get a 5 minute break (if you don't lock the door they just come in). The biggest thing is not listening, not sure if this is a boy thing or the age or what but I must repeat myself 15 million times a day UG!! <br />Word on the street is it never gets easier.....at least that is what my Mom told me.<br /><br />Pia<br />pjmscloset.blogspot.caAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02137264640829502860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8659162590893410645.post-73748562405267433722013-07-02T11:27:31.693-04:002013-07-02T11:27:31.693-04:00OMG I finally am getting to catch up on my blog re...OMG I finally am getting to catch up on my blog reading LOL! <br />I am laughing about the repeating thing - Julianna repeats the same thing over & over like when she's asking for something "I want cheerios. I want cheerios mama. I want cheerios" even if I tell her 5x I am getting it for her. Holy crap I want to scream LOL. <br />Overly dramatic & whining? Are you sure you're not talking about Julianna! LMAO! She is the queen of whine lately - and add in a 7 week old baby brother that she is feeling threatened by, and you get super beeeatchy whiner! My husband, who is normally very patient with her, was ready to throw her overboard our boat the other day LOL )Ok just kidding- don't call CPS!) - Lately she has been the worst behaved she has ever been. I know it has to do with the new baby. We try to give her attention whenever possible of course - but his needs sometimes come first and I think its taking it's toll on her. She did tell him she loves him yesterday - that was so cute - but I know she feels slighted sometimes still! :) Skye https://www.blogger.com/profile/05663879992702576347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8659162590893410645.post-11338544820219649082013-07-02T01:55:58.410-04:002013-07-02T01:55:58.410-04:00Do you know how many times a day I say out loud (o...Do you know how many times a day I say out loud (or sometimes in my head, but mostly out loud) could you PLEASE stop talking?!

For example, I brought my son to my Crossfit class this morning and the final leg of our WOD was to do a hill sprint. There were TONS of kids there, so our Coach said "Whomever loses to a child will have a 10 burpee penalty!" Soooo, me being the slowest sprinter in history is behind every man, woman, and child. My son says "Hurry, Mom! Get in front of me so you won't be last!"<br /><br />I about melted on the spot. That could have been the 90 degree temp with 99% humidity, but it was extremely kind of him to let Mama win!nicole o.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10498624496405864454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8659162590893410645.post-85268109501533449422013-06-26T13:05:51.984-04:002013-06-26T13:05:51.984-04:00haha...Oh yes!

I'm not okay with that being used any day, but today, when I was hopping through from A Mother Life, hoping for some funny, it especially bothers me.<br /><br />I truly don't tell you this to be mean or make you feel sorry for me- but as awareness that there are thousands upon thousands of us who are hurt by people so carelessly using that type of thing.
