oyyyyy. anybody want to buy a couple children?
the boys were just wound up beyond belief. just as i was getting up to make dinner ds4 began to cry, and i could hear ds8 trying to joke around with him to get him to stop crying and laugh instead. it worked somewhat, but ds4 kept crying every time he stopped giggling.
i walked to the stairwell and saw the boys at the landing between the two flights of stairs. i overheard ds8 trying to convince his brother to roll down the stairs, and he was dragging him across the landing to the 2nd set of stairs as ds4 begged him to stop.
i asked rather loudly, 'what are you doing?'
ds8 jumped and replied, "nothing!"
ds4 said his brother wanted him to roll down the stairs, but it hurt the last time, so he didn't want to do it again.
i told ds8 to go clean his room (which he's put off all weekend) until dinner was ready, and took ds4 downstairs to sit with daddy.
after dinner we through them through the wash and rinse cycles and chased the fools to bed. so...
any takers?
