Yesterday, I broke down and told Riley to clean his room. The condition was he could not come out until it was done. He of course did not take it well and began to cry. As I was sitting in the living room with Lolie I heard him singing "I'm only gonna break break your Break break your heart." He sang it over and over in between his little sobs. That's when I realized, I had officially made the mean mom list. It was only a matter of time.
Lorelei decided to have fun with my makeup bag. Today her speciality was my mascara. She even put a few punk rock streaks of black in her hair. It's fun to see how girly she can be. When I paint my nails she always asks if I can paint hers as well. The other day she put on her tutu and dress up jewelry and pretended to go to the airport with Riley and her babies.
These two little stinkers have been as thick as thieves lately. They are either totally loving each other, hating each other, or creating mischief of some kind. They always keep me on my toes.
The past couple of Sunday's with Lolie have been most trying. One Sunday she managed to turn the drinking fountain in the hall into a water park. For the couple of minutes I was distracted she soaked herself completely through. Then last Sunday she decided that the entrance doors were fun to open and close. After three warnings and many physical removals she continued to pursue these doors. Unfortunately the story ended in tragedy. Another kid joined the fun, Lolie's finger got slammed, and three hours later at the hospital it turned out to be a sprained finger. After that she noticed every door and hopefully it will be the last.
