AAAHHHHHHHH!!!

It is 9:15 in the morning. I have been up 3 hours and already this is the most frustrating day. I guess I need to accept that there are parts of motherhood that just suck. Apparently, in my world, school + Peyton is going to be one of those things. I have been happy that when we take her to school, she has been happy to be in the room and doesn't mind when I leave. The down side to this is that every morning, we have a horrible time getting her ready. She screams, throws horrible fits and cries. All because she doesn't want to get ready for school or she doesn't want to go to school. So this morning was no different, except for the fact that we didn't even have the nice drop off...she clung and cried. So I guess Monday, Tuesday and Wednesdays are going to always be a struggle in the Hinds house. SO FRUSTRATING!!!! I knew I would curse myself by saying how well she was doing. What happened to my happy girl? Mornings are her best time...and on any other day of the week, she is happy as can be. What is it about school that turns her into this little she-devil? She is always happy when I pick her up...which, trust me, is the only thing keeping me sane and making me continue to take her. She says she had a good time. I wish there was a way to make the transition easier for her...without both of us ending up in tears and me feeling like the worst mother in the world. Because that is basically how I feel every morning. Plus, I feel even worse that I am frustrated and annoyed. Oh, the guilt that is motherhood... Makes me appreciate my own mom! I'm sorry for ever being frustrating and annoying Nan! I love you more than you know!!

Jeez, I totally have a headache now. Such stress over something so silly...

I Hurt

I hurt my back. It hurts bad. I can hardly nod my head without it hurting. I don't know what happened. But it hurts in case you didn't get that. I took some drugs and have been laying on a heating pad, so it is feeling a little better. I need to run, but just don't know if that will happen tonight. This puts a cramp in my training! (That's my sob story of the day.) ****** Last night Matt was telling me how he just puts Kalee in bed and she stays there and will fall asleep. So I let him show me. Well, he put her in and she started crying and crying. Then we heard her get up. She went into the bathroom...don't know what she did in there. But she came out and closed the door, then went back to bed. We then heard her yelling Blankies, Blankies!! Stuck, Stuck! So Matt went in and got her blankies unstuck and put her back down. She cried some more, then we saw her nightlight go out and heard her door slam shut. She then went into Peyton's room and had a chat with Peyt...

Day 2

Day 2 went just as well as day 1 of Preschool. It seems too good to be true! Oh well, I'll take it! Peyton went right in and did her "jobs" (putting away her bag, folder and picking her drink). Then she went to play with a puzzle and read a book. No tears, no clinging, AWESOME!! Kalee was upset again that she didn't get to stay. She kept saying I want to play with the tractor puzzle at school. So she and I spent the morning playing outside. It's so funny how happy she is once we get home. I think she loves not having the competition for the toys or the bossiness that is Peyton telling her how to play! She had every baby out and every stroller with them. Plus, her tricycle, 4 wheeler, shopping cart, firetruck... I have a new TV obsession...Melrose Place. Sad, but true. I watched it last night and am hooked. Can't wait for next week! There may be a problem though...I think it is at the same time that DWTS is going to be on. Speaking of DWTS...di...

Sunny Monday

We had a fun day today. After Peyton got upset that Daddy and Pop were going to the ball park without her...it was a boys day...we decided to have a girls day. She told me that on girls days, you read stories and sing songs. Well, we haven't done any of those things yet, but we did swim a little in the freezing cold big pool. Then the girls swam in their little pool. They both brought their babies to the pools, so they had fun. I put the solar cover on the pool as soon as I got them out of it!! It's amazing that they don't ever think the water is cold! Peyton sliding with her baby Kalee "swimming." She sat in this little bucket for about 10 minutes! We had lunch and the girls napped. Then we went to the mall play place. I gave them the option of the playground and feeding the ducks or the play place. Peyton wanted the play place. Really, I think they have more fun playing on the little cars that move when you put money in them. They don't even need them to...
