My Crazy Day

I don't think I have ever been so out of control with the boys since they were born. I mean, sure motherhood can be stressful from stage to stage, but today...the whining and the screaming on a cloudy fall day just got me. They are usually really good at taking turn being 'bad,' but for some reasons (whether it's the terrible two stage or feeling sick or both?) they are being 'bad' together. Two 21 months old boy screaming, crying, whining ALL DAY. I seriously think I was going crazy for a minute today. Thankfully, there is an quick easy fix to let out some of my stressful steam. A long loud scream into the pillow is all I needed. And Thomas the Tank Engine is 'really useful' to calm them down the time between after dinner and before bath. Why do you think I can write this post before 6pm?!?
