Wednesday, January 30, 2013. Now, I baby-proof the shit out of this house, so I know I didn't leave them where she could reach them, but whatever, blah blah blaaaahh I'm in a hurry go find your shoes I'm not dealing with this right now. Casey the Bean, in the living room, with the crochet scissors. And this is just the chunk that I found on top the storage unit- which, incidentally, is where I keep my scissors.). Uh-oh, Mom, Baby has scissors! Right in front of me. Saturday, January 19, 2013. Push all yo...

Brush Banter: Catching Up...
http://brushbanter.blogspot.com/2015/04/catching-up.html
Sunday, April 26, 2015. I'm going to condense some moments that I've posted on Facebook in the last few months. I don't know why I post things there instead of here! December 2, 2014:. I just asked Mackenzie what she wants for Christmas, and she said, "A bath. And when I come out of the tub, I can have a towel that goes over my head and makes me Queen." Nice. Simple. But! She came back with more: "And then I need my own house. And a four-wheeler." Time for a talk! December 19, 2014:. February 7, 2015.

Tuesday, October 30, 2012. Breaking Down The Bean. Heh Remember when I said that thing about posting something every day for 365 days? That was funny. Also, it's. The Bean had his Halloween party at preschool today! We're just letting Casey finish eating his cookie.". And there he was, sitting alone at his table with his hat on, carefully nibbling on his Halloween cookie. You still don't ask him to pose for your dumb camera. He can't take it. It was at this moment that he realized how funny he must look.

Tuesday, February 26, 2013. Overheard today while the boys were playing with a number puzzle. Colton: Casey, what number is this? Colton: How did you know that? Casey: Just my voices tell me. Casey: My voices and my senses tell me. But only on Thursday. Mackenzie at the park last week. Mack (patting her diaper): Peup? Me: Ohh, did you go poop? Me: Do you need a diaper change? Me: But if you went poop, we have to change you. Mack (shrieking): I NO GOTS PEUP! Friday, February 8, 2013. Carefully, damn it!

Thursday, May 15, 2014. Scrappy Goes to the ER. Welcome to the Suture Club, Mackie Lou. Your brothers are already members. Now please stop trying to give me a heart attack, all of you. Love, Your Graying Mother. I nodded, of course, and attempted a smile with it, although I'm not sure what kind of creepy face arose with that attempt. I was just thankful to be in a room full of people who seemed to understand that, even though this might be ordinary for them, it definitely wasn't for us. Recap on the Race!

Wednesday, September 12, 2012. They Come in Threes. Just finished bathing three little people, picking out three sets of jammies, blow-drying three heads of hair, brushing three mouths full of teeth, clipping 30 toenails and 30 fingernails, reading three books, and tucking in three crazy children. Now I'm going downstairs to have three drinks. That's all! Tuesday, September 4, 2012. That Boy Just Bitch-Slapped My Heart. And that boy gave me a big hug and said, ". I'm gonna miss you. They Come in Threes.

Thursday, March 6, 2014. HOWEVER. For some reason, every morning looks like this instead:. Guys, it's time to go! Do I have to go to school today? Yes, it's Friday. And we just talked about this five minutes ago. But does Colton have to go to school today? Colton goes to school every day. Get your shoes on. Slowly looks around, appears dazed, sits on the stairs*. You need your shoes before you sit down. COLTON! I said it's time to go! Kicks balloon around house, appears to be missing his pants*. Yah I do...

Friday, December 21, 2012. When Picking Battles, Camouflage vs. Plaid Does Not Qualify. Colton's school made a fun week for the kids since it was the last week before holiday break. Wednesday was winter hat day, Thursday was pajama day, and Friday (today) was fancy dress day. I let Colton choose the hat and pajamas he wanted to wear, but I had a 'formal wear' outfit laid out for him this morning. Only. when he came out of his bedroom, he looked like this:. He's like a hot mess of awesomeness. And off he ...
