Rainy Day Rest and Relaxation....

Oh wait, that's right. It's the Norris Household. Rainy days mean increased craziness and overall chaos. Here a list of important rainy day facts for the Norris Ranch:
  • Superheros are stuck in doors, which mean the bad guys and monsters have to be inside too.
  • There's MANY arguments - er, discussions - about why little boys can't play in the rain shirtless and shoeless.
  • Mommy instinct increases to detect all potential escape attempts.
  • The dogs will be TP'd, lassoed, and generally harassed more than usual.
  • Mommy hair will be tufts and wild by lunchtime.
  • Teenagers will be in full retaliation mode about the same time.
  • Older sister and brother will be targets of toddler attacks and harassment (categorized in same group as dogs by little soldier's of anarchy).
  • Parents bedroom will be broken into at least 3 times and nail polish and hairspray will end up in someones eye (usually the younger toddler as he's the weakest in the herd).
  • At least 4 minor injuries and 1 major by dinner time.
  • Bedtime will be early...for mommy's sake.

Hope you enjoyed a little glimpse of the average rainy weekend day at our house. I can laugh about it now...

  2. LOL! That's our house during a rain storm. Two school-age girls vs two lazy mastiffs while Baby Boy sits in his swing cheering the fight on indiscriminately.
