It was a good week, and we are all fairly well rested! The kids had a sleep over at their grandparents' house on Friday, after a lovely family dinner. Jeff and I got to go out for drinks with some friends (a very rare occurrence!), and it was a much-needed break. Arley has been quite a little grumpster, screaming a lot when he doesn't get his way, and instead of asking for something nicely, just screaming bloody murder for it instead. It's not even about voice control, it is a tantrumming need-to-have-now problem. We are trying to teach him the right way to ask for things, but he is very slow on the uptake!
We are getting quite disappointed with the kids' preschool, as Carmie has finally admitted that she is very bored there. She says she is learning nothing new, and it's just not the same since her Montessori teacher left at the end of last year. The woman who runs the centre is a fruitloop, but they claim to be hiring a new teacher next month, so fingers crossed that they do and Carmie likes it again. I hate the thought of her going somewhere for 4 days each week where she is not happy. Arley seems happy enough there, except that he got injured there today - he was jumping off some inside stairs (being naughty), and he landed on all fours and smacked his face on the corner of a container. It happened right before I arrived, so when I got there, he was crying and with a shiner, but all dressed up in a fancy red skirt. Very tough.
