Today was a pretty normal Sunday.
I woke the kids up at 7:30 so we could be ready to leave for church at 8:45. They finally got dressed at 9:30. SO I dragged them to Sunday School. They figured they wouldn't have to go if we were late. lol after Church we stopped at McDonalds. I needed to get a Free fiesta salad... OH, let me interject about the salad. about 10 days ago I took the boys to McDonalds drive thru and got Alex two Cheeseburger Meal, (forgot to make it ketchup only, heard about it all night) got Andrew a nugget meal and me a fiesta Salad Combo with the water and pedometer. They had me pull up to wait. Then they brought out my salad. I asked where my water was and the girl looks in my car, like, let me see if you have it already. then she stomped off to get my water, and took longer getting the water than it took to get the salad. Anyway then we went home. When we got home I got the boys started on their meals and sat down to enjoy my Fiesta Salad. I had been craving Mexican food and was really looking forward to it. Opened the box and NO taco meat, No tortilla chip, Just lettuce and cheese. I was amazed. So I called McDonalds and they said I should drive BACK and get a replacement. I of Course Said NO. so they said they would send me a coupon to replace the salad. I never got it. so I called then yesterday and they told me to come in today to get the replacement. So here we are at McDonald's getting another two cheeseburger meal (remembered only ketchup today), another chicken nugget meal and my replacement salad. Andrew ate all his fries and said he was full. Alex ate all his fries and one cheeseburger. then they went out to play. less than two min later Andrew came home in tears. Alex ditched him. SO he and I played for a while. A little later Alex came home, then he left again and Andrew tired to follow him but Alex ditched him again. about 30 min later here comes Alex again. I have NO IDEA Why he keeps coming home but this time I found out where he was going and walked up the hill with Andrew and sat at Williams yard while Andrew played with his brother and William.
Now Andrew is not usually allowed in the yard cause when ever he is there, William's Sister Tessa usually get hurt and Andrew is usually blamed. But Today I sat there and watched what was going on. first the boys were standing on a little step throwing a rubber lobster at each other. when they got of the step, Andrew picked it up and moved it then stepped up on it. Tessa ran over and pushed Andrew off the step and said, You can't play with that and took the step away from Andrew and put it away. Then the older boys started throwing the lobster in the air. So Andrew tried to join in. the older boys let him thro the lobster once in a while then they accidentally got it stuck in the tree, very high. said she would climb the tree to get the lobster but her brother told her not to cause she would get
hurt. so she sat down under the tree and sulked.
The boys got all the rubber balls from all over the yard and started throwing the balls in the air trying to knock the lobster out of the tree. So Andrew tried also but he couldn't throw the balls high enough. so he went and got a small toy football and threw it in the tree. But of course as fates would have it the football hit Tessa in the face. She started crying and said Andrew threw the ball at her. her parents came out and said Andrew had to leave cause he hurt Tessa. so I made Alex leave also.
Alex is now pissed at me. he does not understand. I feel that since Andrew got in trouble for doing the exact same thing as Alex and William that they should also have the same punishment. and the more I thought about it, the angrier I got. So I extended the punishment. I have said Alex is more than welcome to play with William but NOT in Williams yard. If Andrew is not welcome in that yard then Alex should also not be welcome in that yard.
Alex has told me is going to save his allowance and run away from home. He had me call his father in Alabama to ask his fathers opinion and to have me proved wrong. I let Alex explain his side to his father, then I explained my side. then I gave the phone back to him. I hear,....BUT DAD!.......But DAD...... Your gonna be gone a while, mom won't still be mad. BUT DAD, it isn't fair...... then he gave the phone back to me and stomped off. His father said I should put him on restriction for a week. lol I am not. hahahaha
He is now outside playing with his brother in the yard. but he is still mad at me. LOL
Life is SOOOO much fun here.
