Someone Likes Hot Dogs!


We went over to Grandma and Grandpas house for dinner this week and to have a little family outing together. We sit down to eat, Bratwursts are Grandpa's and daddy's favorite, so Grandma made Bratwursts and hotdogs for dinner. All of the kids were given one hotdog, some macaroni salad, and some pears. Well within just a coule of minutes Rachel was asking for more hot dog. So, we cut up a second hot dog for her. Then she was asking for more pears, and more pears, and more pears, and then more hotdog. Unfortunately, there weren't any hotdogs left so Grandpa gave her a couple small pieces of Bratwurst. She downed them and was almost immediately asking for more. By this time Grandpa was getting tired of having to keep cutting her food every couple of seconds, so he cut up the whole last bratwurst and stuck the entire thing on her plate. She ate it all!!! Then asked for a cookie! Where on earth did it all go? 2 hotdogs, 1 brat, and almost an entire can of sliced pears... My goodness someone was hungry!

The New Beds

Ok, so bunk beds sounded like such a great idea. The whole sharing a bedroom thing worked really well for several weeks. However, the last couple of days have been AWFUL!!!
How on earth are you supposed to convince a 1-1/2 year old and a 3 year old that they are not supposed to play when it's bed time. I don't think the talking and chattering would bother me as much if they weren't staying up super late and then waking up before 6am every morning. Cranky 1 and Cranky 2 are driving me crazy!

Which probably makes me Cranky 3....
