Hot and Cold

I'm happy to report that our kids haven't killed each other yet this summer. However, it is only June 10th. Honestly, they get along most of the time. I wish I noticed them playing nicely together more than I notice the SPARRING and YELLING (I guess the demands for my immediate attention are greater when this is happening). Their relationship for the most part is HOT and COLD.

Last night, the kids were in the dining room coloring and "getting along". I had just sat down for the 1st time that day to watch a little Hoarders when Isaac came running into the living room upset. He said "Karson made a No Boys Allowed sign for her door and that means I can't come in." I said what any mother would say, "well, just make a sign for your door that says no girls allowed." To which he responded, "I don't even know how to spell that." So he runs and grabs his paper and markers and happily (evil-y) creates his own sign. I like how he put YES BOYS in the corner of his sign. I mean really, look at the rooms below...

and decide for yourself which one you'd rather be in. Umm, I'll take the girls side--thanks boys for un-inviting me in =).

Sheesh, it's funny how I can ask the kids NOT TO DO SOMETHING and they never listen. BUT, if it's written on a sign and plastered on their door, then it must be law. Maybe I should start writing out our house rules on paper and taping them up around the house??? So thankful that Miles isn't to involved in their "drama" yet. I love it when he collapses during the day. He tries his best to keep up with his big bro and sis, but he forgets that he is still a 3 year old.
