Better Watch Less TV

I got the girls to bed at a decent time yesterday and I turned on the TV for some noise while I made lists for the Ward Humanitarian Project.
****Side Note*** Exactly who thought I would be a good person to organize a MASSIVE year long project?? Are they kidding?? Have they seen my house?? I can barely organize a small amount of cleaning. But so far I am keeping my head above water, and I have even fooled them into thinking I'm doing a great job.

So back to the TV last night. Supernanny was on, and I watch it to pick up tips. I was totally mortified to discover that I have the same problem getting my kids to bed as the parents did. The tips they gave are good, though I will have to modify them a little. But as I watched the mom fight gt the kids in bed I could totally see myself and the girls doing the same things. Oops!!

So that means I need to be more assertive in putting the girls to bed, and sticking the a routine. We had a routine, but it slowly slipped away. So we are back to the potty-brush teeth-read a book-go to bed routine. Not too complex, not to time consuming. Well see how this works. May have to tweak it a little.

Hahaha I have Dirty Jobs on in the background, and I just heard the guy telling the host of the show about a python that is a constrictor, from Colombia and eats mostly mammals. The host's reply was We are mammals, with a big pause. I am guessing he was waiting for the snake guy to tell him that the snake doesn't want to eat him. But the reassurance never came. Hahaha. Silly guy, no playing with the snakes big enough to eat you!! Even I know that rule.
