What Is With Her Today???

I put my hair in pigtails (yes I know I am 30), and came downstairs to get the kids ready for their bath, and Grace told me my hair looked beautiful. I said thank you, and then she told me that I look like garlic.

WooHoo!!

Grace fired me today.

Couch Potatoes

The kids are watching Dora right now, and she asked all of us out in tv land if we wanted to join her soccer team to stop the other team from cheating. Grace answered her with this:

No Dora I will not join your team. I am busy right now.

The funny part is that she is 'busy' watching the episode.

I love when they answer the television.

The Day My Child Got Embarrassed

We had a family day yesterday. We took the kids to Borders for story time and Christmas activities. They got to write a Christmas list to santa, color, hear a story, and play games. All the kids that were there got to put their name in a hat and have a chance to win a prize. Well, Jack was a winner. His name was called second, and he got to go up and get a book. He walked very slowly to the front, a little unsure. He stood there as he was asked if he liked Rudolph - he didn't answer. He was handed the book and still stood there. I called him back. He turned around and started walking back. His face was red, and he ran over to his daddy's arms and buried his head in his chest.

I do not remember the first time Jack laughed, or got angry, but this I will always remember.

Dear Children,

When I sit down, it is not an invitation to climb all over me. When I leave the room it is not an invitation to follow. When I make something to eat it is not an invitation to eat half (especially when I just made you something). When I close a door it is not an invitation to pound on it until I open it. When I clean up a mess it is not an invitation to make another (I am not giving you a clean canvas to destroy again).

I do however invite you to dress up like princesses and eat 'car chips' on the couch.

With Love,
Mommy

It's A Glee Christmas

The kids are rocking out to Lea Michele and Cory Monteith, while wearing viking hats and tutu's. Grace is playing a guitar and Jack is 'playing' a hammer and wrench.

Good times in our house this morning!

Why Did The Chicken Cross The Road?

To get run over by me.

Yes, I ran over a chicken.

Who can say that?
