Quite the Character

It was Sleepy's turn to go out to breakfast with Doc last Saturday. When they got home, Doc asked with exasperation, "Why is it our children always have to fart in public?" He said that when they were waiting for the hostess to seat them, he got a whiff and had to move away.

"Ha," I said. With my voice riddled with sarcasm, I said, "That's nothing. This morning, I was giving the boys a bath. I turned on the water and as they jumped into the tub, Sleepy announced, 'I have to go poop!' So, he gets on the toilet and proceeds to stink up the bathroom. I yelled, 'Sleepy!' but since there was really nothing I could do about it, I had to endure the stench while lathering up Happy's hair.

Two seconds later, Sleepy jumps off and says, 'All done!' I looked into the toilet and there was nothing there. The kid had stunk up the bathroom by farting."

A couple days later, the boy was on his knees coloring a picture when he put too much pressure on the crayon and it broke. He showed me the broken crayon and I said, "Wow! You sure are strong!" He said matter-of-factly, "Yeah." Then he looks at me with exasperation. "It's because you made me eat my green beans!" he said.

Happy came upstairs to my bedroom one time and announced that Sleepy had kicked him out of the tent. Sleepy had followed him up the stairs, so I told him to say he was sorry to Happy. He rubs Happy's arm and says he's sorry. Then Happy told on him again and I told Sleepy to apologize. He exclaimed, "Again?!" in amazement. I said, "Of course, again!"

The child is turning out to be quite the character.

To Date or Not To Date

Doc and I have actually been tweeking with the idea of going on a date. I know. Totally weird. Not the idea of doing something romantic. It's the idea that we actually might have the guts to dump our offspring on some unsuspecting person. This has always been a hard decision for us to make. I mean, we do watch the news and let's face it, we're paranoid. That's probably why we haven't been on a real date that didn't include scarfing down our food as fast as we can and running back home to see if it's still standing and no one is bleeding. Just the other day, I asked Doc, "So, are we going out for Chinese tonight?" I was crossing my fingers mentally, chewing on my lip. I so wanted to be irresponsible. We haven't been on a date in forever and I was craving Chinese like crazy. I suggested that our 13-year-old son get a chance to hold down the fort for a couple hours. I even turned on my sexy voice and said, "We'll have our cell phone with ...

Grooming Gargoyles

Some say boys are much easier to raise.  I can see that.  Girls have that PMS thing going on once a month and who wants to deal with that?  Not me.  It's bad enough I have to deal with myself.  Plus, girls can be overly dramatic and cry a lot....wait.  Maybe they aren't too different from boys.  However, there is one thing that I probably wouldn't have to deal with if I had girls instead of boys. That would be hygiene. Being a girl myself, I know that girls like smelling nice.  We love to take baths and soak in sweet smelling bubbles and make our skin feel smooth.  No way are we going without brushing our teeth just in case our honey wants to steal a kiss.  Hair, makeup, deoderant...let's face it.  We are not going to face the day without looking good. My boys are different. They would wallow in their own filth and revel in it.  Big Mac Attack has finally gotten to the point where HH and I don't have to nag him to take ...

The Top 20 Clean Romance Movies Of All Time

I'm really picky when it comes to romantic movies. I prefer them clean and it's really hard to find those kind of romance movies these days. Nowadays, romantic movies are chock full of butts, boobs, and beds. Just sayin'. I was bored one day and decided to google the top romance movies of all time. You have got to be kidding me. One list had Brokeback Mountain on it. Pulease. I was, in fact, so disgusted by all of the lists that I came across that I decided to make my own. I decided to call it The Top 16 Clean Romance Movies of All Time, well, because I couldn't think of anymore to make it an even top 20. Now, my list might be different from most people. I said I was picky. First, I don't like b***** women. That scratches out a whole pile of popular movies. One of them being Gone With The Wind. Does anyone besides me want to smack that woman? Second, I don't like it when the couple end up in bed together. Uh, I don't really need to know, thankyouverymuch. Th...
