Blogging Fiend

Yes, I know that I have blogged more in the last few days then in a while but you know how mommyhood happens!
Anyway, I was on a friends blog and she always has the coolest buttons on the side. Tonight I (am supposed to be doing homework - shhhh) and found this one and I really like it. It has alot of products that are helpful, handy, or just plain cool! If you have time check it out (especially the OnTray thing...it is really cool!)

A Convo With A Four Year Old...

Ralphie with Grandma B on his birthday...

With all the conversations with friends that I have posted as of late...
(And yes I still call them friends because they laugh with me not at me right?)
I thought I would add a little blip that Ralphie had with me .

R:"So, where are we headed now Mom?"

M:"Home"

R:"And home is where the heart is..."

HAVE A GREAT DAY!

What's Up With The Friends?!

OK, so I have another friend that called today laughing about my blog about my friend who told me I could never be perfect...She was worried all of my readers (all three of you - hee, hee) would think it was her - silly her. I told her it wasn't...
Anyway, later in the conversation the topic of moving as children came up. Her MIL (Mother in Law) or someone who shouldn't have said it told her that she did not think that it was healthy for kids to move around alot growing up...that they would never get settled or turn out right or something silly like that. So I (trying to reassure her that it was ok) told her, my dad was in the military and we moved about every three years and I turned out ok - right?

DO YOU KNOW WHAT SHE DID?

SHE WAS QUIET

THEN I HEARD HER TAKE IN A SHORT BREATH...

AND THEN SHE LAUGHED...

AND LAUGHED...

AND LAUGHED!

What is up with that?! What kind of friends of do I have???

Ohhhh The Things They Will Say...

The other evening, JP was watching watching TV with the kids and an infomercial came on. Apparently, it was about some exercise or diet thing.

ANYWAY, on the show there was a woman talking about how she wanted to lose weight for years.
So Audry says, "Dad, I think she needs to get in shape..."
At which Jake promply replies..."She is a shape, she is round..."
JP couldn't speak for a few minutes.

Just Random...

The Paraphrasing of a Conversation with a friend on the phone:

ME: "I REALLY REALLY want to be one of those women with perfectly clean homes and no clutter."

Friend: "That is a really hard thing...I can't see you being one of those. "

ME: I am sure I can do this, it will just take determination..."

Friend: "OK"

10 MINUTES LATER IN THE CONVERSATION...

ME: "Sure Ralphie, you can have an orange, here I cut it for you. But mommy is cleaning the kitchen and dining room so go eat your orange in the Living Room..."

Friend: "You will never have one of THOSE houses (as she is laughing hystarically at me)"

ONE DAY...
