I know I shouldn't tell you this, but...

- I can't remember the last time I gave my bathtubs a good thorough scrub.  It's one of my least favorite chores.  And it ain't pretty when we have hard water stains.

- I don't like giving my boys haircuts.  No bribe can get those two to just sit down and follow directions like big boys and let me cut their hair.  I don't get fancy at all with the haircuts, I just use the clippers with one attachment.  Buzz cuts are all they get.  I've had to tackle Tyler and Brian to the ground (on different occasions) while they scream, fight, and wiggle their way into haircut *?@!  I know, I know, they're probably traumatized by the whole haircut ordeal, but there's no way I'd take them somewhere and pay someone else to cut their hair.  That's just asking to be publicly humiliated.  I should know, I tried it once with Tyler.  Pure disaster.

- I don't have any set rules with my kids and their TV usage.  I pretty much let them do whatever they want, within reason, as long as they are being nice to each other and they are leaving me alone.  It's silly because I know that kids thrive on routine, but I just can't bring myself to creating and sticking to a routine.  Routines just sound so boring to me.  One of these days, I'll cave and make up atleast a morning routine and after dinner routine.  We need it bad around here.

Tyler is a big Wild Kratts fan.

Absolutely love honesty in the blogging world. Way to go! I won't bother admitting exactly how much of my house hasn't been cleaned in a very long time. LOL
