THE RULES (according to daddy...)

1. Hot Chocolate and/or juice is perfectly ok to drink all day every day. Who needs milk?

2. Chicken nuggets & crackers are all a 2 year old needs... (oh... and hot chocolate!)

3. The toys must be picked up 10 times a day whether or not they are being played with, but remnants of crackers, yogurt, applesauce, etc are ok to leave on the table, chairs, and floors until mommy takes over again.

4. All 2 year olds must listen, understand, and entertain themselves as if they were full grown adults.

5. Fresh air is optional.

6. Clean dishes are optional.

7. Football is mandatory.

Now in his defense, the kids are both alive and I had time to rest and attempt to fight this bug. I'm just not sure that the disaster I have to deal with today was worth it considering I am still sick, and the two year old won't stop whining because I'm making him drink water.
