My house is a total disaster!!!
It all started Friday…Friday is my spotless house cleaning day. Everything gets done from washing floors to windows and of course laundry. I had finished a day early since we had Ameri-Care come out to spray we have so many freaking Black Widows.
Friday, was our first day of school and of course the weekend. Amanda asked if she could have a sleepover and I said sure. We had McKenzie, Alyssa and Amber stay the night. They were goofy but they had a great time. The house did suffer a little but not to horribly bad. They were really good about staying in the bedroom and just hanging out.
Since Mandy had a sleep over Friday night Devin asked for a sleepover Saturday night and we said of course. We do have the rule of Mandy and Devin cannot have sleepovers on the same night since they are getting to THAT AGE. Devin only wanted only wanted 1 friend and I thought great no mess only 1 additional kid…..BOY WAS I WRONG
Since Alyssa and Mandy were here for dinner and Devin, Cody and Joshua where here for dinner. Aaron and I decided we would leave all the kids in the dinning room to eat and we adults would go upstairs and relax with our dinner.
We could hear them being loud, laughing and having a great time we even yelled to settle things down. As Aaron and I came down stairs OMG what a mess. We had food spread from one corner of the dinning room all the way into the kitchen. The dog food was accidentally kicked during a chase between the boys and girls and went all over the floor. We had sand that the girls purchased from the Adventure Science Center earlier that day all over the floor. I am sure you get the picture.
Obviously the kids had a great time but ounce everyone leaves and all our kids are back home we will be having a long talk about what went wrong. Tomorrow the kids start back to school full time. Yea for MOM
The description of the room was hilarious. It seem like kids had gr8 fun but poor dog!. And yes…how is Devin’s scratch?
Yeah, believe you me… it was definately not a pretty sight. Hopefully, they have learned….. we’ll see…..
Good post, schatzy
Ugh. I feel you. I’m impressed that you were going to wait until the kids left… I probably would’ve called them out right there. You’re a way cooler mom then me.
Hope you’re feeling better today and healing nicely from your graceful meeting with the pavement. lol
love you!
OMG! The horror! The image in my head is enough to send me into vicarious fits! =) Yes, I agree that you were awesomely calm! I probably would’ve had a coronary! Go you! How long did it take you to clean all of that up??
oodles of love
Hey Meg,
Glad your BACK YEAH!!
Since I have been doing the meditation and other little things I have been much more calm about everyday life situations. They did get into plenty of trouble and now we will not be having Devin’s friends and Mandy’s friends for dinner at the same time until their like 16, and of course by then, Mandy and her friends will be mortified to eat in front of Devin’s friends LOL….
They had to clean the mess as best as they could so it wasn’t to bad for me to go behind them and finish the rest.
