It's official... (random schitzoid post post)

*Disclaimer - Sorry, this post was originally supposed to be how I felt  about the last day of school. I think it drifted a little. But, hey... I can be a little random. (I guess) I think the thought of having both kids home has got my brained a little scrambled. Oh, well. *

School is out for summer.... Is this a good thing? Maybe for the to be 2nd grader. As a mom, I know going out and getting things done will be a bit tougher. Attempting any type of outing with 2 boys is just plain ridiculous! The arguing and fighting... Oh, and both of them will not fit in those kiddie  carts they have at the grocery store. I can't even put one of them in the seat that is in the grocery cart, I would never get them out. I'm too short. (lol) Even if I could get them out... I am not able to see over them while pushing the cart. Yes, I'm short.

    I feel your pain! I used to do most of my errands while my oldest was in school and I only had one. Our grocery store gives free kids cookies, so I bribe them. If they are good during shopping, we'll stop at the bakery counter and get a cookie. If they're bad, they don't get one. Sometimes it works...

    I completely understand your frustrations! 2 boys + arguing and fighting + a "too small" shopping cart + short mama = frustrating trips!! Try to enjoy the summer!!

      I feel you! You know, I already got the school supply list for next year! It was sent home with my boy on the last day of school! I'm just that with it, though. I would lose or use stuff before then! lol

    I'm short too, and I have two arguing boys, so I feel you on this! It's gonna be a long summer, but I have vodka in the freezer, so it's doable! ;)

    Thanks for dropping by my blog and following. :) New follower here!

    My daughter is in the phase where she wants to be the big girl that helps push the cart or pick up the groceries. It takes twice as long.

    xoxo,

    They should make shorter carts. That would help with the vertical challenges I'm sure ...

    Thanks for stopping by my blog from the Local Sugar Aloha Blog Hop. i can relate to the end of the year thing....I inwardly cringe when I consider having to share everything, ALL DAY...sigh. I love them. but I also love the STAPLES commercial where the background music is "It's the most wonderful time of the year..." the parents are dancing, and the children follow along as if in mourning as they shop for Back to School supplies. However, I remind myself how much I miss them when they are away for too long....
    thanks for making me smile, thanks for the follow, and I'm following you back.
    Peace and good.

    Thanks for stopping in and following my blog. I am now a follower. I am not a stay at home mom so I don't know what it is like to have to keep a child occupied all. day. long. since he is at a sitter that is what I pay her to do. BUT on weekends he gets bored with me because I plan things (eg. going to the park, zoo, swimming) that he has done all week so it is no longer fun for him. Good luck, I have one to occupy I don't know what I would do with two.

    Found you on the weekend blog walk. I have 3 so definitely feel your pain. They're all in camp half days the first half of the summer, so so far we're ok. The second half I may lose my sanity.
