SiLLiNeSS!

1.) Okay my dear friends, I have a charge for you. If something ever happens to me SOMEBODY has to, has to, has to print out my blog and mail it to my family. There are sooo many memories I want my children to enjoy! And this is awful, but I know no one in my family (including me) will ever do it!

2.) The start of our Saturday morning… I popped a supplement to put on a bite of Preston’s cream of wheat, and he threw it right up. I’ve tried everything I know to try to get him to take something that might help his skin~crushing these didn’t work any better. While I was trying to get this in him I realize that Hazel has climbed up onto a chair because the brown sugar has been left out and open. She is eating it by the spoonful straight out of the container! LOL! It’s all reigned in now….

3.) Hazel now tells me when she is doing a doodle. She looks at me (with that lovely but strained face) and says, “Mama… google.”  (Now y’all know Googling will never be the same again!  LOL!)  Though she’s beginning to grow out of it now, “no” used to always really mean “yes”, and she’d say “no” to EVERYTHING! And OH how the boys would be sooo excited over one of their drawings and get such a tickle out of asking Hazel if she liked it. “No,” she’d say with excitement~with a stream of other gibberish words.

4.) When Allen was a toddler we took a trip to South Dakota for my high school reunion. My darling had never been there, so my Mom took us all over so we could see the major sites. We did a lot of driving, and my little brothers (that are now teenagers) were acting up in the back of the van. I was recently laughing over remembering the littlest telling Mom that the oldest was giving him “maaaaaajor wedgies!”, LOL, and at one point my Mom’s punishment for their misbehaving was, “Alright! Put your fingers in your ears!” HA HA HA! I can still picture turning around in my seat and seeing them, side by side, elbows out, and fingers in their ears!

5.) My littlest brother at a beach trip one time when he was around four went up to Mom as she was washing dishes. “I cut your butt in half!” he kept saying over and over with a karate chop hand sliding up and down her suture. OH was that funny, too!

6.) My darling is not too sure that he’s on board with this thing he calls “croquet” and “crotcheting”. I’ll ask him, “Do you wanna pet my yarn? See my stash?” and THE NERVE of him! He calls it all STRING! He also takes issue with it being called a “skein”. He says, “I just think you’re off the hook with that whole thing!”

7.) Hazel loves to put pretty things on~dresses, scarves, etc. One day this week she came down with a pair of my darlings underwear over head and around her shoulders. “Pretty!” she kept saying~LOL! We had a very hard time convincing her that no, this was NOT pretty!

8.) I often call my family members “Love”, so Hazel told my darling this week, “Hi love!” We all melted at how precious it was.

9.) Jamie LOVES to look at himself in the mirror. OH it is funny to catch him too! Good thing we only have them in the bathrooms. If you happen to peek in you’ll find him dancin’ around, making faces, sticking his tongue out, and the funniest part is how he has to turn his head to see each new look from every angle! HA! Or startling him by walkin’ in~he’ll darn near bite his tongue off!

10.) Okay, I hafta revisit something. A long time ago I blogged about my nose hairs. Well, I FINALLY got some nose hair trimmers, then I FINALLY put a battery in it. It kinda startled me when I turned it on, and I was kinda scared to stick it up there. The next thing I know the inside of my nose looked bald! And it felt like a plucked chicken! So I’ve decided that there is something unhealthy about trimmin’ out yer nose hairs~I think I’ll go back to a scissor clipping or just lettin’ it all hang out… Was that TMI?
