Abducted by Aliens

At least that is what I think must have happened to the two little angels I had Monday and Tuesday! Cause today they had been exchanged by two screaming little monsters. Robert had his first paddy this morning before breakfast. He decided that getting dressed was not an option, so when I went ahead and GOT him dressed he screamed about it non stop for 25 (!) minutes!!! What a start to the day.
Once back home from Kindergarden, I sat them in front of the TV whilst I cooked dinner. Not normally a problem. Dinner was ready before the programme they were watching was. I decided to be good to them, and didn't make them turn it off before it had finished, but I am wishing I had now. Because when I did turn it off, AFTER it had finished. Robert had his second paddy of the day! This time he screamed non stop for 20 (!) minutes. And refused to touch his dinner. In the end so Richard and I could eat in peace he was taken to his room, where he continued to scream.
What a nightmare.
And in the afternoon it was Richards turn for paddies! Once because Robert wouldn't share the cards from a memory game and at tea time for 20(!) because I wouldn't let him peel/peal (how do you spell that?!) an egg! If he at least liked egg, I would have, but he only ever wants to peal them, and not eat them! He finally gave in and ate his tea - at least that was OK.
But enough ranting about my kids - if the aliens are reading this. I really enjoyed my boys yesterday and Monday can I have them back PLEASE!!!

Bye 4 now

So have you checked the moon yet?? Cause I'm thinking it must be full, wow what a complete turn around for them. Though I completely understand since I have them in my house also. Our days usually start out o-kay but after my daughter comes home from school she has been around all the misbehaving kids all day she thinks it is o-kay to do at home....oh not so. Sorry you had such a stressful day. Did you get to scrap a little once they were in bed asleep?? I find that calms me so much because it is something I enjoy doing so much. I am sending good vibes your way so that you will have good days the rest of the week....I hope it works!!! Take care and Blessings to you.
