monster army, not so much...

I had one of those off days yesterday.
Nothing seemed to go right as far as making monsters or with the kids, so my monster army plans did pan out and I spent most of yesterday putting kids in time out, especially my youngest, he shows his frustration with good old fashion hitting, biting, and pinching. Can you say handful! so, I did mange to squeak out three critters, not sure how. I decided it was in my best mental interest to wait to paint them until the kids were all snug in their beds. then I ran into a whole new trouble, I don't know if it was my day of being the punisher mom or what, but I was ready to toss them in the trash last night. things ended up working out, but ugh. what a day!!

Love the new monsters. As far as "handful" kids? Ask me why I have nothing to post! I was supposed to be done with three projects by now!
