I'm over it. I feel so much better now. Not that I don't get a pull at my heart every now and then, but the moments of pure insanity are gone, thank goodness.

The ultrasound went well. Everything looks good, I was just measuring big for my dates. I know my original due date (3/3) was correct, however I was 10-14 days early with my first two, so I guess I just bake them quicker :) I am now due on 2/22. That is about what I was figuring anyway.

I am so glad to have that all behind me.

So, remember the smelly kids I told you about from our carpool? I am beginning to think that they are going to be a thorn in my side for quite a while. For the second weekend in a row, the dad has dropped the kids off at our ranch unannounced and left. A 4th grader & a 1st grader. Drops them off. Without speaking to an adult. Without a phone call to ask if they can come over. Nothing. I guess we are the built in babysitters now? What the F is this all about.

I have to admit, these kids annoy the shit out of me.

• They STINK. I guess I can over look that since I don't let them come in the house to play. And really, it's not their fault. I just can't imagine that they don't get teased unmercifully by the kids at school.
• They have zero manners. They just barge in and out of mine & my MIL's house as they see fit. I mean, JJ does this too, but it's his house. Not theirs. And they do it WITHOUT JJ being around. It's not like they are following him.
• They baby talk. Both of them. It drives me insane and I am constantly on JJ's behind not to follow suit. My almost 2 year old who talks constantly is less annoying then them.
• They act like I am a wicked witch when I tell them not to do something. Hello...We have rules at this house. If you don't like it, there is the dirt road home.

I am also super pissed at the parents of these kids. How dare they think that they can just drop them both off? I don't mind the little boy being there at all, but the little girl needs to stay home or go to her own friends house. I don't want to have to entertain her and she antagonizes the boys like no other and they fight when she is around. I don't want to have to be the referee.

They had to go and ruin my day that started perfectly yesterday. JJ stayed with MIL and The Shadow woke up when the hubby got up, so he took him out with him. I went back to sleep and slept until 9:30. It was heaven! I haven't done that in so long. I certainly needed it.

So, I guess that is about it for now. I will have to think of a somewhat civil way to tell the neighbor that I am not his fucking free babysitter.
