    Geeze...How did I get the Daycare Gods mad?

    So this morning alone I had...


    1) 3 year old dcb bite someone. twice.
    2) 2 yr old dcg who ALWAYS has some object in her mouth. drives me batty. I counted 32 toys that I threw into the yuck bucket for cleaning. 29 came from her!
    Today she gobbled up a marble that we were using for marble painting. Reached right into the paint bin, snatched it up and before I could get up from the floor, she had paint covering her mouth. And where was the marble?? she told me she didn't know I had a bad feeling she swallowed it. I called mom. 1 min later I found it. So that was fun.
    3). After our backyard activities the kids are taking off their shoes and the 3 year old dcb that bit, races to the bathroom to beat my daughter there..and proceeds to knock down my hand soap. Icky, sticky, messy soap liquid all over the bath mat and floor. Ugh.

    They are all still sleeping. I shutter to think what the afternoon will bring.

    How was everyone else's day so far? Hopefully better than mine

    I feel for you...sounds like a day that should be over already Maybe it will be better after naptime! Just a note, I would not be using marbles with a 2 year old who has proven to have oral impulses...you are lucky she didn't choke on it! I am sure you have already thought of this after what happened though.
    My day has been quite good...we stayed at the park all morning and pushed it a bit later than usual...which made for a rushed lunchtime, but was worth it because our forecast is for nothing but rain for the next week or so!

    Just wanted to add that my day did not start off so well...My daughter peed her pants on the stairs up to the second floor...I was in the kitchen when I heard the sound of water pouring...turned the corner to see a waterfall of pee coming down from the top of the stairs and onto the floor This was five minutes before my first dck's arrive...I was not impressed! Luckily I had time to clean it up before they arrived...I shudder to think of what would have happened if she had done that as they were coming in as they have to walk right through that spot to get to my daycare area...a pee shower would not exactly be a nice way for them to start the day!!!

    Ugh... I totally feel your pain! I'm having a horrible day too! My 3 year old was horrible all morning... throwing constant temper tantrums, not listening, spilled her cereal and milk on purpose because she was mad that I made her sit for breakfast, then threw the biggest fit over having to go for a nap. One of my dck has had the worst snotty nose ever! It's been constantly running and getting all over everything... yuck! Then a 3 year old dck has been super whiny and doesn't want to play at all... just wants to follow me and ask me why a million times and then whine about everything. All I can say is thank God for nap time! I cringe when they wake up
