omg kids

my kids are making me insane. in good ways and in bad.

a good way you ask?
they can be sooo cute and funny! they crack me up!

the bad way?
they don't listen. they break my shit. they trash my house. THEY DO NOT LISTEN!!!!!!
then they want new toys and new psp games and candy and to go to the movies and this and that and AHHHHH!

tonight a good friend gave me the idea that when they start acting bad i calmly walk into their room. say nothing and start throwing their fave toys in a trash bag and do so till the behavior is corrected. i'm on the fence if these will actually be donated to goodwill or just stashed away as prizes for good behavior to be earned back.

my oldest didn't really respond much.

my youngest about died when i threw away his prized iron man action figure he never ever plays with. lots of screaming.

i just put the bag outside and locked the door.

this happened after they:
fought for the last time
bugged the poor dog for the last time
then got into my mini survival kit in my camera bag and was throwing around a box of matches like a baseball.
after a picture frame got broke
after they WOULD DOT EFFING LISTEN to me YELL at them and take away their stupid psp's.

thank you miss friend for the great idea. so far it's working fine.

now all i have to do is threaten to start throwing away toys and they fall right back in line.
so far.
