I sent their asses back to bed...

My nieces and nephew spent the night last night because their mom had to work over till 7am. So my only comment last night after goodnight was "If you wake me up in the morning, I will send you back to bed" i told this to all 7 kids...

What did I hear first thing this morning? 7 very loud kids... I had such a headache from them, being woke up by that much noise always gives me a headache, that is why I told the 7 kids that I would send them all back to bed if they woke me up.

Every Saturday morning my kids can get themselves up, take their meds, get their own breakfast, and sit down quietly and watch a movie. Then I can get up about an hour later and there is no problem. So I do not see why the addition of 3 kids that are the exact same age as my kids should change this at all. They should be able to get their own cereal, take their own pills and sit down and watch a damn movie for an hour.

So I got me and my huge headache up, came down stairs, got all their pills out (because NOBODY had taken them) and made everybody clean the huge mess they had made, then had them all take their pills, then they were all sent back to bed... I told them they all had to lay down for 45 minutes and be silent, cause that is how long it would take for my headache pill and coffee to work so my head would feel better. I also said that if they did not be silent that they would have to lay down even longer... so about 5 minutes later I hear my niece... so she got the privilege of standing on the wall for 45 minutes while the rest of the kids did their time. When they all got up, she was sent to bed till lunch time... Maybe next time she will do as she is told.. I am getting a little tired of that one thinking she can do what she wants to...

After that, they all figured out that I was not having a good day and they all behaved REALLY well...

Hope you all had a SUPER DUPER Saturday...
