Manic Monday

Before I gave birth to Kyleigh, I heard from every Girl Mommy how much "easier" girls were than boys.  Today is a day I certainly beg to differ.  Last night I got choppy "nap sleep" as usual.  As soon as Kyleigh's feet hit the floor this morning she's been on a war path.

Stealing Kade's crayons as he did his school lesson. (This mama doesn't break for summer.)

Pulling Kade's hair as he was doing his school lesson.

Refusing to put her clothes until we were literally walking out the door today.

Also refusing to put her shoes on the right foot.

Needing certain cups and plates.

Not wanting her hair pulled up because it gives her a headache.

Not wanting to play outside because apparently the 90 degree weather outside today is hotter than the 100 degree days we had a few weeks ago.  Note that on those days, I had to drag her inside.

Telling her brother she doesn't love him & he isn't her best friend anymore.

I'd blame it on the "terrible twos" but I know that three wasn't any better with Kade.  And I will give her credit, potty training was a BREEZE with her!  However, I am expecting my first gray hair any day now.

Sell This House

I made up my mind last week that the entire week ahead will be spent readying our house to sell.  The kids aren't sharing a room as nicely as I wish they would.  Kade needs his own space for his massive Godzilla collection.  Kyleigh needs her own room for her kitchen & doll house.  SO many toys are in their playroom at my parents simply because their current room is too small.  I cut grass today and I saw LOTS to do to fix up the outside of the house.  Things that won't cost a dime to do.  

Cutting up a fallen tree and hauling off.

Raking up leaves & briars from said tree and hauling off.

Weedeating.

Bleaching the back porch & prepping it to stain.

These few things will make a massive difference.  And hopefully attract potential buyers.  I'll keep you updated.  Please just keep me in your prayers that we can sell this house!!
