My Monsters behave-a story about my day.

This morning I woke up to my youngest monster hollering for me to wake up. She really is quite adorable, and annoying as it is to be woken up early, I can't resist her little voice screaming "Wake up Mommmmmyy". Now I exaggerate this word because when my daughter talks, she talks through her nose and lengthens her words, so she constantly sounds like she is whining. Most people would want to put nails in their ears than listen to her talk all day long (because really, for some I'd imagine the nasally whiny sound would get old) but I don't mind. You might wonder what could give me patience in this department, but I have no answer other than I'm just relieved she talks at all.

Anyway. So up we go this early morning to start our day. My oldest joined us not too long after giving us a complete snuggle fest on the couch while we munched on some yummy Frosted Flakes. I endured a few of the same mundane cartoons with them before I started picking up a little bit. I was under the impression that because of the gloomy day outside, the Monsters would be stir crazy inside. But behold, a load of dishes later, they were sitting quietly still watching Bananas in Pyjamas! When asked if they could have ice cream sandwiches, they were polite and both of them said PLEASE!!! Miraculous I tell you. So of course, who could say no to such polite little girls? 

At this point I felt that my day was going to go awry. My morning nausea had been building as I picked up, and I knew it was only a matter of time before the problem could no longer be contained. My next course of action? Battle out the nap time frenzy before succumbing to the bathroom floor. Imagine my surprise when all it took was me saying "Please girls, Mommy is going to be sick. Let's lay down for nap time."

So the only damper to my otherwise awesome morning was that I spent twenty minutes throwing up. Monster 3 is already revolting against his/her Mommy!

Feeling a little better meant I was able to eat, relax, watch two episodes of Grey's Anatomy before spending the rest of the day cleaning. We're all rested, the house is clean, and dinner is marinating. It's been a very weird day. Now we wait for Daddy to get home from working overtime. 

What a crazy, crazy day.
