HE'S GETTING AN EARLY START AT BEING A PEEPING TOM
We were in at the Children's Place today looking at clothes since they had some really good sales going on. Our almost three year old noticed some feet in one of the dressing rooms and decided to take a peek and see who was in there. We caught him because the mother of the girls who were using the...

'YOU GOTTA GET DRESSED BEFORE YOU CAN...'
We have been having a regular problem with our six year old lately. He really takes his time getting dressed. You can sit him alone in his room and tell him that he can not come out until he has gotten dressed and he will take ten minutes or more to do this. Weekday morning the boys do not get to...

ALL THE KIDS WERE KUNG FU FIGHTING?
Today we went to my niece's birthday party. It was done through her karate school. My six old year old had a little problem. The instructor played a game a few times where the kids were to stand perfectly still, no moving, talking or laughing. My son decided to play the class clown. Every time he...

HANDLING THE AFTERMATH
Here we are the day after Christmas and now it is time to deal with the' aftermath. Our house is a total mess and the boys have no interest at all in trying to pick up and organize their new toys. We have hot wheel tracks all over our halls. Bits and pieces of wrapping paper and packages everywhere....

THE BUNK BEDS
So today the boys got the early Christmas present, their bunk beds. One of the first thing to be evident is that for the time being sending them to their room is not going to work as a way to punish them. In fact I had ot make them come out to the living room because they were getting out of control...

"MOMMY, I NEED A TISSUE"
Xeno_x, you are not allowed to read this post. I have no problem with stranger reading about my sex life, but I really do not want my own father reading about it. Just feels weird. You want to talk about something that kills the mood 100%. Try being in the act when you get a knock at your bedroom...

TRYING TO GUESS WHAT THEY ARE GETTING FOR CHRISTMAS
I've been trying to get my older son (He'll be six here in just a few days) to guess what is under the tree for him. So far he is really, really off. I was always good at figuring out what I was getting and a real big snoop so it was hard to hide anything from me. So far he thinks he is getting all...

GIFT SHOPPING FOR THE BOYS
I am finding it as easy as can be to find gift ideas for my older son. He is about to turn six and there really is no end to what I want to get him. So the big problem there is I can not get him everything. I have to watch my spending and be a good boy, especially this year. With my younger son, who...
