And one to go to bed on

While climbing into bed with MagGrath tonight ( which is now very difficult since we have rid ours selves of the horrifying habit of putting him to bed with a bottle, yes he is almost 4 1/2 and we are just kicking the habit this week!) Anyway, Larry said, “Have you seen the toilet in the guest bathroom?” To which I quickly went into find…a lovely little nugget on the floor!!!!!!!! So, I decided to ask MaGrath, “Who did this?” His response, “It was a baby dinosaur! Him came in the garage and him did the code…and him came into the bathroom and went potty on the floor, and then him left!"

tryin’ to earn a buck and learn how to say thank you

Mason has decided he needs a rip stick, which I might add are$55. So he must earn it! He dog sat for our neighbors, did some chores at home, earned his garbage can money, and decided to earn the rest at Nanna and Pappa’s. After a few hours of sweeping, vacuuming, gutter cleaning and getting $5 from Uncle Mark(Aunt Meri’s fiance) he has enough. But while we were there, Uncle Mark fixed the trike for MaGrath. I told him he needed to tell him thank you, to which he simply replied, “No.” After about 5 minutes of trying to tell him why, I said, “If you don’t say thank you, you cannot ride the trike and you will have to get in the car!” Expecting him to finally give in, I watched him turn right around and open the car door and get in! Stinker! When I asked him later why he didn’t say thank you, he held out his hands and said, “I’m just shy, Mamma!"

just a start

With all the lovely chaos in our home, and for lack of recording our lives in a scrapbook(like I used to ever so diligently)
I have made a goal to start recording all those things that may or may not want to be remembered by our little family! Some may be things that are going on right now, and some may be remembrances from past lovely chaos. The events of our lives...
