The ER

On Sunday night I was getting the Beast out of his bath and was drying him off. I got the comb ready and the q-tips because for some reason his ears are always gross. While I worked on cleaning out 1 ear ear, he was helping by sticking the end of my pointed comb in his ear. YIKES!!!! After crying for about 5 mins he was fine. I still called the Dr's after hours and was told go the ER. It was the quickest ER trip ever, I was in and out in about 20 mins. He has a scratched ear canal and is fine. Thank God.

My Summer Bucket List

So, since my sister decided to make a blog about summer bucket lists, I decided I needed to do one also.

Have lots of picnics
Go to new parks
Lots of water play or swimming
Go to a water park with Chatty
Tons of Zoo visits
Get caught up on Scrapbooking
Start my doll house project.
(Or just find someone who will do it for me, I will pay)
Start organizing all my kids Baby stuff (and get rid of some stuff)

Giving Thanks

Not many times do I sit down and write what I am thankful for
Which I think that needs to change.
So today I am very thankful for:

1. Chatty is not sick anymore
2. The Beast’s mouth sores are gone
3. My sister who is done with her biopsy.
4. My new bags from 31 bags (which I cant wait to get)
5. My new purse organizer (which I cant wait to put in my new bags)
6. My tuition assistant that came through
7. I paid off my car insurance so I don’t have to pay till October 2012
8. My new rain boots that kept my feet dry in the flood yesterday (a great b-day present from my kids)
9. My niece who says “Hi Aunt Ann” in the sweetest little voice
10. My 3 new bins I bought. How I love to organize :)

The Joke

I dont really think my daughter is that funny but sometimes you cant help but laugh. Our coversation goes:
Me: come on booger lets go
Chatty: If I am a booger, than you are a nose

Now why I cracked up at that is beyond me. Maybe it was the fact that I had a fantastic Mother's Day weekend with my children. I woke up with both my kids crawling into my bed. Chatty brought me the envelope she made at school with a pin inside with her picture in it. And then she helped the Beast make me a card, before he could even get out of bed. (he also made me one at daycare w/handprints) Plus I got a jewelry holder from the kids (which my mom did an awesome job picking out) Between the swim lessons, the play and cookout I could not have asked for a better weeked.

Glitter

Sunday afternoon during the Beast's nap time. I spent it doing stuff with Chatty. Apparently me reading my book was out of the question. I opened up her makeup she recieved from her little boyfriend at school (so cute) so then I got my makeup out and i put it on her while she helped me put mine on. I put glitter on my eyes. After the whole day of being together I wipe hers off before bed and wipe mine off. Here is our conversation: Chatty: you look pretty with glitter Me: thank you Chatty: you should wear that everyday I bet boys will like it and you can get a boyfriend and we can get a house of our own. Me: okay (not even knowing what else to say)

Bouna Beef Part 2

Chatty's school had another fundraiser at Buona Beef this time around I made sure she would NOT have to wear her uniform (again). I leave work, grab the Beast and off we go. So happy we can eat at a restaurant with no melt down. Thinking my daughter would be in jeans and shirt. I wait for my parents and they pull up, I go help to get Chatty out and WTF????? Seriously?

The Vampire Bite

Most children bite, its when they are angry, frustrated, over tired, and many more reasons. I sent the Beast to daycare on Monday, I get a call at 10:30am. I need to go and pick him up. He bite 3 kids today and made one bleed. Oh, shit. I go and get him: he is happy as can be. Tuesday: another phone call: 2:10pm. He needs to be picked up again. This time he bite another kid while on top on her, holding her down. Well, now double shit. Wednesday: NO phone call :) YAY!!!!!! Thursday: he stayed home with my mom. 4 days down, one more to go. Lets pray I don't get another phone call on Friday.
