The items Ashleigh has done part 2.

If you have not read "A Day in the Life", then you need to.  
It is Part 1.  This is Part 2. 

By the time I got to the end of "A Day in the Life," I realized that I could not put all of what Ashleigh has does because I would have doubled that blog post.  Are you ready for this?  This makes me upset just typing it all up.  I know there is more, but I can not think of it all.

1. Pouring shampoo down the drain.
I am not sure why she does this.  I can not stand when she does this.  I have shampoo that I have laying around that I don't care about.  I have this for lotion, too.  The shampoo, lotion I use is hidden.  I think I should not have to hide items from my 11 year old.  Shawn & I went shopping together the other day & I told him I needed more of my  shampoo.  Meaning 

2.  Pouring lotion into bathroom trash can, into the bathroom sink, into the toilet.
This was not 1 bottle, but 2.  Ashleigh gets mad about something or had pain & does something like this.

3.Taken the decorative stones out of the turtle aquarium (Friday 2-17)
Ashleigh said I was yelling at Noah.  I was not.  Still not sure why she did this.  She is so lucky she did not electrocute them or herself.  I found out she did this when she left the bag she was carrying these stones in on the stairs (from 1st floor to 2nd floor).  I picked up that bag.  I was so mad.  It was the day before Ethan's birthday party.  I had so much to do.  I realized why the turtle water was so green- she did it by putting too much food into it, but also being in it.  We don't allow the kids to be in the turtle tank because of salmonella.  It is not safe.  We always wash our hands.  I have no idea if she did.  She did break some of these stones.  They are decorative stones.  I need to get more to replace the ones we had to throw out.  A friend of my & I cleaned the tank the day of the party because the water was worse.

4. Faked a bath, put soap in the tub (2-22)
The towel was not wet.  Ash wasted a bottle of shampoo.  As a consequence, she will be doing jobs for anything she puts down the drain. Ash needs to learn that we do not have money to keep replacing the items that she put down the drain, the toilet, or the trash can.  Another consequence of this was she had to have a REAL bath.  

5. Put hand soap in my brush (2-22)
Ash put hand soap in my brush because she was mad at me.  I brushed my hair with it.  I had to wash my hair.  Therefore, I made her get her bath for faking her bath & we talked about why she did the things she did.

6. Ash took paint that is my.  I was painting her bookshelf.  It is in one of the posts earlier about her room.  I was painting with white paint.  She took that paint & mixed it with fabric paint.  I am so tired of her wasting items.  Pouring it all down the drain.  She has no idea what she is costing us.  Fabric paint is not cheap.  The paint that I was painting her bookcase with- I had to take a foam brush & take the paint out of it.  It was blue.  I got it out.  I then found a cup & scissors than she ruined, too.  I found those days later.  I could not save them.  I get so mad at her doing this crap.  Ash lies when she  tells me the reason. (This is all in the basement. The basement is off limits to her)

7. Steals
Anything around the house she will take.  
-Ash took photos out of my datebook that her godmother gave me last week 
 Ash was there when she gave them to me.  I put them in my datebook, put them in my bag.  I have a bag called the devyn bag. (http://www.devynbag.com/Default.asp- I love my bag!!).  Ash went into my bag & took all of the photos.  I went into her room today to get her sheets so I could wash them & I found 4 of the photos, but I was missing about half.  I found a photo that was not one that my friend gave me.  It was from the year before.  She took that from another area.  I am tired of this.  I told Ash if she lies to me or if she steals from me one more time that is it or if she lies with anyone else.  I am done.  I am taking her tv.  I am not giving it back.  Well, I am not going to actually carrying her tv away.  Shawn will.  She went into my bag.  What is next with her?  My wallet?  She has not ever went into my bag.  I have told my kids I may not know what you have done now, but I will know eventually.  I can not allow this to happen.  I have Noah & Ethan to think about. I know this has affected Noah a lot.  If you ask him, I know Noah would tell you that.  Ash says she lies & steals is to get my attention, but I am not so sure.  I am not sure what to believe.  This child is so good at lying. 
-Stickers from the basement (3-1).
-Books from the basement. 
-Items of my-photos, books, papers, you name it she has taken it.

8. Lies about anything.
-the shampoo in #1.
-the lotion in #2.
-the decorative stones in #3.
-the fake bath in #4.
-the hand soap in #5.
-the paint in #6.
-the stickers from #7.
-the photos from #7.
-the books in #7.
-my items in #7.

9. Screams at the top of her lungs.
If Ash does not get what she wants, she screams at the top of her lungs & cries for someone.  If I tell her no, then she cries for Shawn.  If Shawn tells her no, then she cries for me.  But, if we both tell her no, she could cry for Nana, Nannie, Uncle Tim.

10. Ripped up books.
I have lost count on how many books she has ripped up.  Again money down the drain!

11. Bangs her head against something.  I have Noah watching her.  I told him it is his job.  I pay him to watch her, but she does not know this. ;)

12. Hits & fights with her brothers.  Ash calls them stupid. 

13. Not listening.
-Look at #14.

14.  Does not want to help me, or her brothers.
-We got Zeus & Bolt microchipped (2-25) & it was hard doing it on my own.  I had Zeus.  Noah had Bolt.  Zeus was pulling me up the stairs.  Ethan needed help up the stairs (we have 19 stairs up to where we park).  Ash would not help him.  Noah was carrying Bolt.  He had to put Bolt down to help Ethan.  They got into the van so I could get up there without having Zeus pushing Ethan over.  Zeus has done that.  Then, we get there.  I tell Ash that she is going to help Ethan because I have Zeus & Noah has Bolt.  That she has no choice.  She did it there, but when we got home, she said that she was not going to help me or her brothers.  I told her that she can go right to her room, that being apart of this family means helping out when it is needed & I am tired of her not helping me.  Ash does this all the time.  I swear she does this to make me mad.  Ethan has problems with the top step on to the city street.  If I have Zeus in my hands, I can not have Ethan next to me because Zeus will push him over.  We are trying to retrain him.  It will take him sometime.  

15. Puts toys in the toilet.  Don't ask!

16.  Taking food.  Yes, we feed her.  Ash will take 3-4 of the same thing.  Like the other day, Ash took 3-4 puddings.  Why?  I am not sure.  We would not get a truthful answer.  

17.  Ash has this stash of things she carries with her.  It does not matter what it is.  Like jewelry.  I keep all of her good items from her.  She has no idea where they are.  I was told she could be a hoarder, but I am not sure.  Ash is not a major one, but a small one.  

18.  Before we moved, we had more issues.  Ash would take food & hide it in the boys' room.  It would be along side Ethan's bed.  I would check every day.  It would be there.  I don't know how she got it there, but she did.  It did not matter what it was.  Bread, pudding, applesauce, icing, candy, cookies.  You name it.  Here at the new house, we have a rule no food or drink off of the first floor.  For the most part the older 2 don't take food or drink off of the first floor.  Noah tries to take drinks up.  Like in his pants.  Yea, I caught him.  Ash hide thing behind things like dressers, in closets.  We do not angle anything in her room.  We can't.  That angled furniture would have trash behind it.  It did at the old house.  Even in the boys' room BIG TIME!!  So, we eliminated all angled furniture in Ash's room.  Her furniture has to be up against the wall.  We don't even like to have a small space between wall & her bed, but we have no choice because of the size of her bed & room.

19.  All of this is affecting Noah.  Before we moved, this was affecting Noah big time.  Noah would cry a lot.  Ash would pick on him all the time.  I can remember Noah running down the hallway at the old place saying how much he hated his sister.  I told him it will get better, what can I do to help him.  Noah asked if we moved into a house, could he get his own dog?  How could I say no?  He was crying. He was miserable.  I said yes because I did not think we could get a house.  Well, we did.  I kept that promise.  He loves his puppy more than anything.  Noah is happy now.  He still has issues with Ashleigh.  
-Noah does not like how she calls him or Ethan stupid.
-Noah does not like how she hits him or Ethan.
-Noah does not like how she screams at the top of her lungs.
-Noah does not like how I am yelling at her when she lies/steals/not listening.

I am sure I am missing some.  This has taken me a day or 2 to type this up because I would get mad & I would have to stop or someone would need something.

Thanks for reading!
Melissa
