Funny Things are Everywhere

Tiny little exerpts from my tiny piece of heaven

I see London, I see France… March 20, 2008

Well, it FINALLY happened….Jackson is wearing big boy underwear.  This is big stuff!  Anyway, I was getting Sawyer ready for bed last night and Brad was doing the bathroom routine with Jackson.  Jackson comes flying into Sawyer’s room wearing only his skimpies and yelling, “Mommy!  There’s a baby on my underwear!!” 

I was like “heh?” because he had baseballs and footballs on his underwear.  “A baby?” I asked. 

“Yep!” Jackson proclaimed.

“Where?”

“Right HERE!!!” he says (so very excited) as he pulls his underwear down to his ankles, grabs the size tag, and points to the Gerber baby on the tag.

“Um, yes!”  I say in my I’m so proud of you mommy voice…still a little shocked.  Jackson pulled his britches back up like nothing had happened.  (Innocence.)  Then Brad walks into Sawyer’s room.  “What’s going on here?” Brad asked.  Hmmm….do I tell him????

“Daddy!  There’s a BABY on my UNDERWEAR!!!”  Jackson exclaimed again.

“Really?  Where??” Brad asked…falling right into Jackson’s little trap. 

“Right HERE daddy!”  And of course, same show as before.  Brad just looked at me like what do you teach these kids when I’m gone?  You know we both thought it was hilarious, but these are the things that, as parents, you must not laugh at….otherwise you will find yourself shopping at Target when your son decides to show some random stranger the baby on his underwear.

Sheesh.

Ok….I’m not trying to be a pusher.  But I just wanted to let you all know that I have another blog…my biz blog.  While I am working hard to keep my very super juicy, kids just got potty-trained, just dropped the last bottle, very personal details on THIS blog….if I don’t post too frequently here….check out the otha’ one.

You may just find out what’s going on in my life.  Or not….it’s the risk you take!  :)

 

Where’s Leo??? March 12, 2008

No, this isn’t a joke.  No this isn’t a game…not like “Where in the world is Carmen Sandiego.”  This is not a game at all.  In fact, Leo is MIA.  Who is Leo, you ask??  Well, he is a Little Einstein.  And Jackson LOVES Little Einsteins.  For Christmas he got a spaceship w/ all the Little Einsteins included.  He loves to feed them, put them to bed, and of course, perform Jimmy Buffet concerts for them.  He likes them so much that today at “school” when they were asked to thank God for something…..he thanked God for June, Leo, Quincy,….and whoever the other one is.

Well, tonite Brad is at the last home game for Butler.  The game started at 9pm so I only had a couple of hours alone w/ the boys…on top of the entire day, right?  No biggie.  Well, before Brad left I was vacuuming (as always….ha!) and the boys were putting away some toys…..and where all the Little Einstein peeps ended up is beyond me!

Flash forward to bedtime.  Jackson stayed up late w/ me to watch American Idol.  (Yes, he’s a fan.)  I thought he’d go straight to bed because it was LATE.   Well, he wanted to know where June was.  It seems he loves to sleep with June.  Whatever.  But, I couldn’t find her.  Of course, when I told him that, it didn’t go over well.  “OK.  I want QUINCY!!”  Fine, that should be easy enough.  Well, it turns out I found June and the other 3 Little Einsteins were MIA.  I was actually thrilled I found June…but Jackson was not.  So I had to come up with some story that the other Little Einsteins were at the Butler Bulldogs game with daddy…and you need to keep June company.

So far it’s working.  We’ll see…Ok….did I say I was going to have a glass of wine (not whine) and try to watch American Idol??  Wish me luck. 

If Jackson catches me watching it without him…well….it’ll be worse than losing all the Little Einsteins!

 

Lockdown March 10, 2008

Ok, the weather has been typical for March…but I HATE MARCH.   It just seems that this is the month that I’m ready for Spring.  Ok, not even ready for spring.  I’m ready to enjoy 20 minutes sitting in the sun while my kids take naps.  I’m ready to take the boys on a walk and not have to be bundled up.  I’m ready to take the kids shopping and not have to wipe them down with antibacterial wipes because it is “cold and flu season.”

Wow, ba-hum-bug, eh??  So, we haven’t really done anything blog-worthy lately.  This weekend, we had a family trip to Wal-mart (I love being back in Indiana!), went to Barnes and Nobles to play with Thomas the Train, and went to the carwash.  Woohooo!!  Man, I can’t wait for it to warm up.

I’m posting some pictures that are way past due.  Hope you like ‘em!
