Grocery trips...what fun.
So, we just back from going grocery shopping. The trip itself wasn't too terribly bad. They were good enough to get doughnuts for their treat. But then in the line, on the way out, and on the way home they went crazy! Fighting, whining, crying. So, anyway, they didn't get to eat their doughnuts after all. We finished lunch, I put a movie on for them, and then I took my doughnut and locked myself in the bathroom so I could eat it in peace without them complaining about how they didn't get to eat theirs. I didn't even think twice about it. But when I got in the bathroom, I realized how pathetic that is! I had to go lock myself in the bathroom just to eat a doughnut!!! Oh the life of a mother. The things we do to get a quiet moment. I'm sure you all know what I'm talking about!!

We all do that rachel!! I go in the hall closet under the stairs sometimes to talk on the phone! MaKenna always seems to find me even when I whisper!! It's definatly called being a mom!! How to out smart your kids and keep yourself saine!!:) I don't know how to spell but oh well!:)
I actually think it's quite healthy to lock yourself away sometimes. My kids need to know that there are times when mommies need time all by themselves. And since they are not going to give that to me of their own free will and choice, I have to take it! Even if it meanslocking myself up somewhere.
Oh I so completely understand. Sometimes I need to lock myself away so I don't kill them. Isn't so nice to juts have a little piece and quiet!
I totally do it too Rachel!! I officially call it "time out"... when I can't handle it anymore I lock myself in the bathroom and everytime there's a knock on the door or little fingers sliding under the door I tell them to go play because mommy's in "time out" right now. When I'm asked what I did wrong I say, "nothing yet"... but I WILL do something wrong if I'm not in time out for a few minutes!! Ü
That is funny!! Good for you. Iam sure I will have to do that when Brooklynn gets older
