Kids are assholes.
There, I said it. Kids are assholes. It just gets worse, they don't sleep as babies, terrible twos, homework fights, puberty, teenage angst, and then the years you spend being a complete moron while they know everything. Kids are assholes. With every eyeroll and buuutttt moooooom, I think "asshole kids". It's become my mantra. Lately, Devil Baby, had been shhhhhhhing me every time I tell him something he doesn't want to do. I guess he thinks it's going to work. Maybe I'll try it out and see. The hubs wants me to make him a sammich? Shhhhhhhhh ha!! Now I love the little assholes, all four of them. They're a lot of fun, when they're not plotting against me or locking themselves in their rooms for whatever reason. Oh the angst!

Teenagers at the dentist.
Ok- I never understood the whole "Kids high on gas at the dentist" till I witnessed Dade throwing an imaginary throwing star at me. I was pretty entertained. I also enjoyed an entire conversation about clowns and their funny shows. Sadly I didn't film all of it. But enjoy this 30 seconds of imaginary throwing stars.

Ok- so I made a Disney tactical error- or 5.
I haven't really written much lately. I have been meaning to write this post for some time, but I haven't really had the heart. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed Disney with the family, and it was important for us to be all together. I just, well, didn't have as much fun as expected. Why you ask? And if you didn't, I'm writing anyway, so who cares?
1. Over planning. I am a self professed control freak. I love to be bossy. This time it bit me in the ass. I had too much planned for too many people. I didn't leave enough wiggle room, so when things went wrong it threw everything off.
2. Park Hopper. When we originally planned, the decision was to all stay together. Well, that's great, till we all discovered we had a lot of different interests. The boys all wanted to hang out in Star Wars land, and the girls wanted to enjoy Epcot. If we had a park hopper, we could have easily split the group up and met up later; this was we all had to stay together. Animal Kingdom was not a hit.
3. Sickness and Health. We all got hit with a Nuro virus. Puking, pooping, the worst. Next time I'm going to either call ahead and request a deep clean, take airborne or emergen-c, or Lysol the hell out of the room. Hell, maybe I'll do all 3. With the sickness we missed out on a loooooot.
4. Alternate plans. Next time I go with a large group, I'm going to make sure everyone has a copy of the itinerary and the Disney Experience App. When I was sick, there was no on leading the group and it fell apart. Have a second in command!
5. Rest Day, Rest Day, Rest Day. I wish I would have planned a day of nonsense where we could just rest by the pool or shop. It was too much, and we needed rest. The kids really wanted to spend more time in the pool, I don't really feel they enjoyed the parks as much.
All in all, it was a good trip, with a few hiccups. Next time, it will be better! The matching shirts were a hit!!!

Pooprints...
Potty training is Super fun. So today, Devil Baby decided to take his diaper off and poop on the floor. Then he stepped in it. Worst ever!

Hooked on a new book series
So I haven't been writing as much as I shout because I am just ate up with this new book series. That's how they get you, they write such enjoyable books that you just can't get enough. I bought this book on a whim, and it sat in my kindle library for a month or so. I picked it up the beginning of June. Now I'm on book 6 of the series and read 2 books of the adjoining series. I. Cannot. Put. Them. Down!
So- here we go. They're the Dowser series, it follows Jade a half witch as she tries to find herself, run a bakery, and deal with family issues. Y'all enjoy! Adjacent to the series is the Oracle series that includes characters from the Dowser series. Oh and if you join her fan page you can download a cupcake cook book for free. I cannot wait to try some of these recipes.
Who is this mysterious author? Meghan Ciana Doige
Book: Cupcakes, Trinkets, and Other Deadly Magic
Buy it here- the first book kindle version is free! They're addictive so get ready! If you read these, tell me how you liked them!
