My week

I decided that I was going to document a day in a life of me and that didn't work so well especially since I started to document it after school instead of before school. Maybe I will try it next week. But this is what I did document for the day.This is what Ella does every time she eats this cracker snack. She only eats the inside and saves the rest for the dogs. It is so frustrating because I just paid for the whole snack and she only likes the insides. And she picks that snack to eat almost everyday.The weather for the week has been so weird. Some of the week it was cold and so overcast my living room was super dark (which it never is... It is the lightest room in the house). Then the next day the sun was out and it was 48 degrees outside.Ella this week has really tried my patience. This night she was throwing a fit in the living room and just wouldn't stop so I told her to go to her room to cool off. Of course she didn't want to do that so I had to take her there. But not without first chasing her around the kitchen and living room 3 times. After I got a hold of her I started to take her down the stairs and she grabbed onto the hand rails. I pulled and pulled but she would not let go so I had to pry her fingers off the railing. I then got her into her room to which she screamed like a possessed child. When I left her room I went into my bedroom. I think she thought that I was upstairs because she said "I am not alone in here you left Otis". But she did so quietly in that sneaky I am telling you but you can't hear me anyway type of way. I immediately opened her room and called Otis out of there much to his relief. My poor ears paid for it later as she screamed her lungs out.She was screaming so wildly that poor Tyler came down crying because Ella's screams were scaring him. And yes taking pictures was my way of dealing with the situation.The next day Ella woke up happy and told me that she could never be mad at me for so long and that she loved me. She got into the bath before school started. She insisted on wearing the goggles that came with one of her toy dogs she got for Christmas.Yeah she is cool like that in her goggles.

And although it was a rough week I got to end it with a bang. I got to go out on a date with my honey on Friday night and hang out with the girls (Heather and Kayleigh) on Saturday night. It was a much needed and very fun break.
