Things I have Said This Morning

Some days feel like we go from one disaster to another! Minor disasters of course, but it's like living in a wind tunnel! Fortunately, I can usually chuckle at the antics of our little kooks. Also, I am not attached to any of our possessions as they likely be covered in crayon or broken soon.

Here are things I have said this morning:

-Please do not put chapstick on the dog.
-Don't wipe your hands on your brother's head.
-No, we are not sending daddy a picture of your dirty diaper.
-NO MAPLE SYRUP IN THE CAR! Never ever.
-Please stop stealing my quarters.
-Why are all these clean clothes in the bathtub??
-Leave your stitches alone!! x50 (Wyatt fell off a chair and won the "First Kid to Get Stitches Award" this weekend.)
-Nope we are not having fruit snacks for breakfast.
-Who put all these fruit snack packs in the toilet? Now no one gets to eat them after lunch.

And it's only 9am!  :)

These three are going to have lots of fun together! (And probably cause a decent amount of trouble! )

Close Encounters of the Pregnant Kind

I have found that something about a pregnant lady makes people say things that they wouldn't normally say. And, then of course, there is also a sudden decrease in personal space awareness. I am almost not surprised anymore when a stranger puts her hand on my belly for a prolonged amount of time in a public restroom while she tells me horror stories about delivering the 15 th of her 17 children. Here are a few of my favorite encounters: 1. An elderly man came over to me at the grocery store in the produce section looking very stern and asked me if I was trying to steal a watermelon. (He then broke into a semi-toothless grin.) 2. A kindergartner came running up to me while I was on recess duty, put her hand on my tummy and said, "Mrs. Dainty! I just saw your belly MOVING! Is that your baby? Is she having recess, too?" 3. Lucy (our dog) gave me several annoyed glances as she tried to snuggle up to me while we were watching TV and kept getting nudged in the face by t...

Snow and Sesame Street

We woke up to sooooo much snow! The kind where you can't get the back door open and you have to shovel your way to the garage to get to the snowblower. Leah and Lucy were both pretty amazed - the snow is deep enough to swallow them both up! We played in the snow while Ryan, bless his heart, began excavating our house. Leah helped shovel us out for a while. What a trooper! Another recent fun event was going to see "Sesame Street Live" on New Year's Eve. We saw Elmo, Grover, the Count, and all of Leah's favorites. The music was pretty awesome - my favorite was a medley of "I love trash" and "We're moving trash," which is a song about decomposition sung by an R&B Beetle. Very fun - Leah was mesmerized.
