Karate

Well, Mommy signed both Jackson and Shane up for karate thinking that they would have fun and really enjoy it. Last night was the first class and boy was mommy wrong! We got off to a bad start with a fight over who would sit behind mommy in the car- Jackson of course was crying; then we wouldn't go in and Jackson layed down IN the parking lot saying he didn't want to go. So while Shane is afraid that Jackson is going to get hit by a car in the parking lot- we finally get everyone in side and what do they do? Start asking for snacks! So we go in the back door... and Mommy gets: I don't want to go, I want to go home and Jackson starts crying again.... we go and sit down since clearly there was no way that they were going to participate in the class. Jackson was so loud and distruptive the teacher asked us to leave! So finally he stops crying and they are both sitting on my lap for a while and then they start rolling on the floor like babies saying that they want to go home. It was mortifing- the other kids in the class were all 4 years old and participating nicely. this was music class all over again :-(  We'll see what happens next week and hopefully T-ball will be better than Karate!

Below are some pictures of the boys from school.
