Sunblock+2 Unattended Two year olds=BAD!

Garage sale is over! Thank you, Jesus!

We made almost $300 by selling our junk. Our junk was definately somebody else's treasure. Now we figure out what to do with that money. Be responsible? Or have some fun? Hmmm.

The kids were good minus one rather large incident with waterproof SPF 30 sunblock in the master bathroom. Jacob and R were left unattended by both sets of parents for 2 minutes (no joke!) and those two were quick in their assessment of the bathroom and the cabinet under the sink. They emptied two tubes of sunblock in lighting speed. All over one another, all over Mr. Big's nice dress shirts and suits and all over the carpet in the actual bath room and master closet. Let's just say that Mr. Big did not find it as funny as I did. He lost it, especially when he saw the lotion all of his new (expensive-freshly dry cleaned) suits. For the first time in history Mr. Big gave Jacob a spanking. He was sent to his room and embarrased in front of his company, who also received a tongue lashing and discipline from her parents as well. Doi! Parenthood is hard sometimes. I don't know why, but for some reason watching Mr. Big parent our son made me cry. I got teary eyed as he spanked Jacob's diapered butt and sent him to his room. I cringed. It's one thing for me to discipline, but one thing to watch the man that does nothing but spoil our children spank them. It literally melted me into a big gooey ball of Momma Drama right there on our bedroom floor. WAH! Sigh.

Lesson #5670. Do not leave two 2 year olds unattended for a length longer than 2 minutes in a house full of cabinets and drawers. This leads to a carpet cleaning bill and much stress on both sets of parents.

It's hard for me to watch anyone get onto my daughters but me. Even family. I know it's necessary, but it make me crings and become very defensive. I hate it. I don't spoil my daughters in the least. Hannah is very very strong willed so we are battling often. I want her to be a well behaved sweet child. She is sweet she is just bossy, and wants her own way.
