Ranting!

Oh my god, my children are friggin' INSANE! Today is one of those days when I question why on earth I had kids. Let me start by telling you all the things these little terrorists have done today (and it is not even 3pm yet). At 9am, Iyla went into the fridge, took out the maple syrup and proceeded to bathe Chance with it. Then while I was outside washing it off of him, Leila was inside unrolling all of the toilet paper (brand new roll) into the toilet bowl. I had to give her a bath since she had gotten toilet water all over herself in the process. While I was doing that, Iyla thought it would be fun to make a "Barbie swimming pool" inside the FULL box of tissues. She just got her cup that we use to rinse with after teeth brushing and filled up cup fulls of water and poured them into the tissue box...WHICH SHE HAD CONVENIENTLY PLACED ON TOP OF HER BED. Hmmmm, where did all that water go you ask? Well, the tissues soaked up some of it but then the bedspread, blanket and mattress took care of the rest. I made her help me clean that up and realized that Leila had been very quiet (never a good sign). I found her NAKED and DIAPER LESS tearing apart all of the coloring book pages that I had gotten out earlier to try and keep them both entertained.
I was losing my mind so I put them both in the car to run an errand. Leila decided that she really wanted to WALK in the grocery store (which I have never ever let her do, so I have no idea where she even got the idea). The entire time she was screaming in the cart saying, "Lala wok, Lala wok, Lala wok!' It is not even like Iyla was walking and she wanted to do the same thing. Iyla was sitting next to her in the GIANT truck shaped double seat cart (which is a little bit like pushing a dead buffalo through an ice skating rink). Those damn slippery floors and absolutely no turning radius on the friggin' cart. Well, as Leila was chanting her unreasonable demands, Iyla had found a way to pinch her finger in the seat belt buckle of the cart which, of course, set her off on a high pitched screaming fit of her own. I seriously came home with like 4 pears, a head of broccoli, some lunch meat and a tub of cream cheese. Looks like another grocery store trip is in order tonight. Ok, so still not done with my story. When I was unpacking the groceries and talking on the phone to my sister (she can vouch for my hysteria) I heard the bathroom door upstairs open. By the time I got upstairs (8.4 seconds) Leila had AGAIN decided toilet playing would be great but this time Iyla had just pooped and she was sloshing Barbie hair around in the poop! Soooooo, she had another bath and now they are both (unwillingly) napping!
OMG, kill me now!
