{another 1st}

James first fat lip. He somehow ran into the very padded recliner and managed to bust his lip open so bad we had to throw away daddy's shirt. Only to dive head first off said recliner in attempt to run away from daddy 5 minutes later. Luckily there was no bleeding involved in that fall just a lot of crying!

My excuse to eat a can of whip cream!

How can you have a bad day after eating breakfast with a monkey?

{one of those days}

from unfinished homework
to ants, ants and more ants....
to a very late dinner for mom...
and let's not forget the 1 yo screaming while i tried to clean up the very late dinner I was attempting to sneak in (heaven forbid a mom gets to eat)

i gave up. went to bed. hoped for a better morning....

awoke feeling very refreshed only to find I was about 2 hours behind schedule already!!
Seriously?!?!!!!
Can't a girl get a break here?

Setting: (5 minutes ago) Tyler and James were leaving for the store. I started to ask him to get something but he asked me something first then I couldn't remember what I wanted. Tyler and James are gone. I'm sitting at my sewing machine on the kitchen table and he's sitting on the other side.

Mom: "I really can't remember what I was going to ask Tyler to get me"

Wyatt: "Well tell me a list. Ramble stuff and see if you can remember."

Mom: "That doesn't work for me"

Wyatt: "Milk!" (pause to see if that was it) "Jelly! We are out of jelly." (pause) "cheese" (pause)

Mom: "No Wyatt it was something just for me personally"

Wyatt: in a loud excited voice thinking he had for sure he figured it out yells, "Tampons!!!"

I laughed so hard I had tears!!

Wyatt: (laughing) "Well when you say personal things that's the first thing I think of"

That was so not what I meant by "something just for me". I was thinking that there was a treat I was craving or something I wanted for after the kids go to bed kind of thing that I can't remember. Can you tell he was raised by a single mom? He will make an awesome boyfriend someday!!

We love Mexican food in our house. One of my childhood favorites is deep fried burritos. I make them a lot now in my own home. Wyatt has always loved Mexican food! We introduced the deep fried burritos to Tyler a few years ago. He loved them. And now James...It's a hit!! Deep fried burritos are unanimously, a family favorite!

I am so blessed to have such loving boys! Coming around the corner and witnessing these kind of moments is what makes every poopy diaper or stinky sock totally worth while!
