Thursday 13-things kids do that leave you thinking WHY? HOW? WHAT?

NOTE to my readers: i do think as these things happen "i should take a picture of this for the blog,but generally come to the conclusion that EWW, no one wants to see this. (including me!) but i'll tell you all about it. 13 things that happened at my house this week.( there are more but my poor mom brain can't remember.)

1. our baby boy took his diaper off in his crib and you wake up to two "logs" on the sheets,
Sunday morning. seriously? and dad takes him out and cleans him up but later in the day I discover the logs. UGH! GROSS!

2. jello in Hope's shoe as i'm trying to get her on the bus to preschool . hmmm how'd that happen? (this morning)

3. the purposeful dumping of Cheeto's on the floor. in the family closet. and right after i'd tidied it up.

4. the flavored condoms i got at the dollar store. floating around the floor of my room , unopened. the kids found the box, They were going to be part of my invite for bunko since every guy thinks he's getting lucky after bunko. might as well go with that thought and have some fun in the process.)

5. goldfish crackers poured on the floor, by the computer . while i try to sit in peace and blog. GOSH!(this morning)

6. two basketball practices at 2 schools far apart , at the same time, while Dad has scouts.( it went pretty well thank goodness. but man i'm hating our gas bill. filling up 2 times in a week? at $80 a pop is killing my budget)(last night)

7. finding (the above mentioned) flavored condom out of the wrapper on the stairs. and laughing out loud, so Pierce thinks he is the funniest kid ever! while i am pretty horrified,and wondering how he got it open. and who did? mmmm minty? scary!(this morning)

8. kids playing in the shower with a toilet paper roll, getting it soaked and shredded, and then leaving it, looking like a turd on the shower floor, and the huge sigh of relief when realizing it was just the toilet paper roll.(yesterday)

9. hearing your 5 year old quote Napoleon dynamite with a talking pen. movie version from the pen, and joy's interpretation! hilarious. (i tried to find the video but it doesn't want to be found apparently. GOSH! freaking idiot!maybe later. ) (Sunday)

10. hearing your toddler SHART, and when you go to change his diaper on your lap, IT RUNS DOWN YOUR LEG because it's the consistency of chocolate milk. and all you can do is finish cleaning him up, Laugh instead of cry and get your husband to come see. THEN go shower, and you are then glad you hadn't had time for a shower this morning.(this morning)

11. watching my toddler HAUL the spare cabinet(removed from the kitchen above the fridge 4 days ago) from the laundry room, into the kitchen so he can sit in it. (this morning)

12.finding paint on his hand, and i have NO CLUE where or when it got there. so the frantic search begins for a new mess i have to worry about.(this morning)

13. yet another spill, dropping a can of Dr. pepper,and spilling it on my foot, while drinking a bottle. Would you touch the can of Dr. pepper if you are drinking a bottle? (just now)

and these fun times all happened in my little family in my filthy house. its as always, the super fun life of a mom!

SO what happened at your house this week?

You can seriously buy flavored condoms at the dollar store? Yuck. I think I would spend more than a dollar to prevent pregnancy. Too bad about the poo-tastrophes. Yuck. Once I found a brand new roll of tp floating in the toilet. Sick.

Things like this happen at my house too! I wish I could say they didn't. I am impressed you are laughing not crying about it all.

You have seriously made my day-sorry that it was at your expense. Those are some great little happenings, especially #10!!!

HATE finding "treats" in the crib. one of my sisters used to finger paint with her poop. anyways, marina taught me well to never leave any child over about 6 months of age alone without shorts or pants on...sometimes they need some safety pins too!
