A loooonnnnnngggggg day

The boys had me up this morning at 6.15 am! Well, Richard actually at 4.00am, but he did go back to sleep again, once cuddled up next to me in my bed. But Robert was wide awake and raring to go at 6.15am and from then until we went downstairs for breakfast they argued, screamed and cried non-stop! What a start to the day!

They were that bad, that I actually asked at Kindergarden when I picked them up, if they had behaved themselves!!! apparently they had, so I had hope! But at lunchtime, Robert didn't even touch his dinner - and I had cooked their favourite (Spaghetti)! The had their quiet/snoozy time, and then at 3pm they were back at their tricks from in the morning. Robert wanted to go in the garden. Unfortunately the weather is so unpredictable and cold at the moment, that it is really not the best of ideas to go in the garden. But he wouldn't listen to reasoning, he just sat there and screamed and cried himself silly. I got Nanna on the phone to try and calm him down, cause I couldn't. He eventually shut up for long enough to listen, but when he found out that yes he could go in the garden, but on his own, he started up again, cause he didn't want to go on his own! Kids!!!
Once he quietened down again, it wasn't long before he started again, this time he had earache, that is a good reason for crying, not that I like it much, but at least it is justified. We had a long cuddle, a phone call to Daddy and then some medicine. And now at bedtime he was full of beans! I have dosed him up with medicine again and hopefully it will last through the night. Looks like we are in for ANOTHER trip to the doctors - does it ever end!?

Scrapping is definitely therapy, I feel much better having done a couple of layouts. Here is one that I did for the Font Challenge at DSO using the CT Appreciation Mega Kit - Grateful 4 U, thanks so much Silvia for this. I appreciate you too!
I am not sure what the boys were up to here, but I think "contemplating mischief" probably comes close!
