Really?


My conversation with Karlee before school this morning:

I say, "Karlee, you have to put a shirt under that, your belly is showing. And no high heels to school."

She says, "But..."

I say,"Sorry."

After eating her breakfast and going back upstairs to brush teeth...

I say, "Did you brush your teeth?"

She says, "Yes."

I say, "Is your bed made?"

She says, "Yes."

I say, "Did you put your jammies away?"

She says, "Yes."

I say, "OK, let's go to the bus."

Only to find this when I come back home...





Hmmm, Really?!?

I'm also kind of thinking that maybe my tooth video didn't motivate her tooth brushing, either.

And yesterday, Kavan got home from school only to realize he had forgotten to take his PJ bottoms off.

I say, "Didn't you go to the bathroom all day?"

He says, "Well yah, but I pull my pants and underwear (and for that day his PJ bottoms) at the same time!"

Hmmm - laugh!

Halloween Consequences!

So here they are ready to collect the loot!



Everybody looked so great and really played into their "character."
Cade cracked me up! Cade and Ali were the cutest little mummies I have ever seen. But Cade assured me that he was the "scariest mummy" that I had ever seen!



I love that picture!! Pretty scary, huh? :)


This is the day after and let me tell you - there was some serious candy trading going on here.



So, do I get after my kids a little bit more right now about choosing to take care of their teeth? Well, like with all choices, there are consequences!





Please, brush your teeth! (You could also use some floss, Listerine, maybe even some home fluoride.) Thank You!
