And the fighting begins

Yesterday morning I had to bring Caitlin to the hospital for her pre-op appointment for her upcoming operation. It was quite early so instead of bringing Madison to the daycare first I decided to bring her with, what a mistake! I remember fighting with my sister quite often when we were growing up but didn't think my girls would start so soon! If one has something the other wants it, if they both have the same, no one wants it! And try to get a word in with anyone while the girls are present, impossible! So hopefully I didn't miss any important information from the pre-op nurse or the resident doctor because once I was finally asked if I had any questions, what I really wanted to say was, "Can you please start over from the beginning since I pretty much missed everything you just said!" Oh the joys of having kids!

Sometimes I think people must think I'm totally scatter brained but I really try to keep it all together, and the best is when you've got people staring you down for letting your little ones cry it out when there's absolutely no reasoning with them and you're at the hospital trying desperately to fill out the forms given to you by the nurse to give to the next doctor completed in five minutes and one kid wants a little doggie she sees in the window of the gift shop so conveniently located in the waiting room and the raging toddler screaming because she wants to break free from the stroller and take off running.

At least they keep it real and everyday is an adventure!!
