I felt your pain through it too! I have been there far too many times to count(not the climbing the windows), but may as well have. :) I too have wondered how my children would live through one more day. It can be a daunting task taking 3 children to the store while 8 months pregnant after losing another child not even a year ago. I have actually been in your shoes in that regard. I'm actually impressed that your kids stayed in their rooms and quiet for 2 hours plus!!! I have NEVER had success with that one, even when there have been severe disciplinary actions involved!!! <br />You are right, kids should NEVER get away with that behavior and yet they all try to get away with it! Like Jenn said, we've all been there whether we want to admit it or not! :) Glad you were able to enjoy a nice big sundae! :) <br />Love, hugs, and prayers!Carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08509883355394380559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-99400039966124695.post-69696740968935898452011-09-28T18:20:52.202-04:002011-09-28T18:20:52.202-04:00I'm so sorry for your horrible grocery experie...I'm so sorry for your horrible grocery experience. And grief makes everything ten times worse... And I really, really, really hate when people try to "justify" when kids are misbehaving... Especially when you're thinking, "they never do ANYTHING like this at home, so why would they get the urge to do it now." It's the worst! (I also really hate when my 2yo refuses to eat supper, pitches a fit, and throws it in the floor and then the grandparents try to give her cookies and snacks because "she HAS to be hungry!"... She'll eat when she's hungry enough... ugh!!!!)Hannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11595162141360224721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-99400039966124695.post-48409346451104469712011-09-28T09:12:45.803-04:002011-09-28T09:12:45.803-04:00HUGS!HUGS!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12906011318192557550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-99400039966124695.post-25325333027565598002011-09-27T12:21:33.371-04:002011-09-27T12:21:33.371-04:00Oh Stacy I have moments like that all the time. Us...Oh Stacy I have moments like that all the time. Usually I just have my 2 1/2 year old with me but I swear she can feel like 3 kids. It seems like anytime I take her to the store she fights me on everything. First thing she will fight me on is sitting in the cart, she doesn't understand why she can't walk around. If I put bread or meat in my cart she pokes holes in it or tries to eat the bread through the bag. If I get eggs she tries to open them and crack them. I always said I wasn't going to be that person in the store and not being able to handle my child but it has happened and I am that woman too. I feel for you. I hope you had a nice quiet afternoon. Have a great day! :)Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15294893136338212958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-99400039966124695.post-16899106336565195212011-09-27T07:05:51.412-04:002011-09-27T07:05:51.412-04:00Are you at all nervous about having 4?

I am considering it, but its stories like this that make me rethink :) This sounds like my trips now with 3, and people bow to me in the store. Some people are more rude seeing me with 3, and will give you nasty looks like your some welfare mom or something. Like its really any of their business how many kids I have :) My mom had the audacity to tell me I can't have anymore (im 29).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-99400039966124695.post-34434559558654598682011-09-26T20:59:39.605-04:002011-09-26T20:59:39.605-04:00Oh Stace, huge hugs hun.

Good on you for not snapping at the store, I think I would have!!<br />And yay for ice-cream I say. Hope you really enjoyed that.

And it's because I felt your pain while reading it. I can so relate! I've been there! There was a time when my kids were 14, 12, 4 and 2 and I've been there! The 'They're ALL yours?!' question you've mentioned before...been there! The repitious words you told the kids today...been there! Being a full time Momma is a full time job and a half! And add home schooling on top of that! And add being 8 months pregnant on top of that! My sweet, your tears were well warranted! And your HUGE ice cream sundae was very much deserved! I hope you enjoyed it and I hope you licked the bowl! =) BIG hugs and I cannot wait to do lunch next Wednesday! <br /><br />Love you, keep that chin up!<br />France~Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-99400039966124695.post-53063608746197502522011-09-26T15:48:55.332-04:002011-09-26T15:48:55.332-04:00You poor pregnant momma.

I've been there and done that....well maybe my kids didn't climb the windows but....still my kids have been really unruly in stores while I keep my calm mommy voice....believe me that calm nice mommy voice sure can change once we are in the car. Sigh and think....you made it!!!! Glad that you are getting some quiet time now.<br />God Bless youJoyce Kayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11314614256802895297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-99400039966124695.post-59705984348038640742011-09-26T15:39:20.680-04:002011-09-26T15:39:20.680-04:00Oh Stacy!

I have to say that my 3 haven't climbed 10 feet in the air, but I can admit to them acting like total animals in public and I've even lost Terrell and Amarion in a store before. So Stacey, you're a great Mom, even though at that moment you may have been thinking nice mommy thoughts, but I believe we've all been there whether they admit it or not! Hang in there, you're doing a great job! I could use some of your skills and patience because you probably held it together longer than I would have! I hope you enjoyed your ice cream sundae!Jenn P.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16511747665894045684noreply@blogger.com
