From 2009:
Overheard: *FLUSH* Bye bye poo-poo.  Where is the poo-poo going? Is the poo-poo going to Target? No Weston, the poo-poo is not going to Target.

Summer track out: Scene- Mom napping on the couch. Chaos happening upstairs. 

Dallin: (wakes mom) Mom? Weston has taken over my bedroom. 
Mom: Tell him you are going to his room and you are going to rub your butt all over his stuff. 
Dallin: (giggle) ok bye
Mom: (rolls back over)

*chaos continues upstairs*

Throwback to 2013
Weston's doctor says he is a little bit anemic. So I decided to make him one of those smoothies with spinach in it.

Day 1:
Smoothie: ice, blueberries, pineapple, banana, spinach, and cranberry juice.
Verdict: Delicious! Mom, Dad and Dallin drink it up. Weston hates it. He sits in front of it for hours before finally getting Dallin to take it outside and dump it for him.

Day 2:
Smoothie: ice, blueberries, pineapple, spinach and lemonade (because weston loves lemonade).
Verdict: Delicious! Even better than before. Mom Dad and Dallin drink it up.
Weston sits in front of it for a couple of hours. I'm sick of the power struggle. I start threatening to take away the computer if he doesn't drink it. He still refuses. I take away the computer for a week and still he won't budge. So finally I tell him that if he doesn't drink it, I'm going to dump it on his head.

The battle is over and Weston is showered. Hopefully, he won't question whether or not I will follow through with my threats. Also, I highly recommend this consequence. It's very therapeutic for mommy.
