The yesterday I told him I wasn't his entertainment director and he needed to find something to do. A few hours later I noticed he was teething. Yeah, I'm pretty awesome for knowing my child's needs.Lorajeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05422022554084121323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4354720323394973077.post-9387906707820551062010-02-18T22:32:57.966-06:002010-02-18T22:32:57.966-06:00Great post!

They won't pee on the road because they don't want anyone to see. But our tinted windows provides privacy while, a cup serves a portable urinal so I don't have to unload kids or bring all the boys into the bathroom just to try to keep them all from touching everything.<br />We too have PB&J almost every day. But they like it too. There has been times when I made something else and at least one of them complained because he wanted PB&J.<br />Two things I swore I'd never do I have done.<br />1. allow my kids to wear sneakers with no socks. i don't know why but that always use to bug me. I didn't allow my first to get away with it but sometime along the way with the second it happened.<br />2. I swore I'd never take my kids in public with a dirty face. Again my first probably didn't until he was 3 or 4 but it has since happened more than I want to admit.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01149852627961486814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4354720323394973077.post-63007878741706461682010-02-18T22:08:38.272-06:002010-02-18T22:08:38.272-06:00You mean PB & J every day isn't a balanced...You mean PB & J every day isn't a balanced meal? And my oldest just said to my youngest "dang it, you need to stop doing that" so maybe I need to watch what I say...it just doesn't sound right coming from a 4 yr old =) And Avery made Connor a Valentine's Card 2 weeks ago...I'll try to get around to mailing it this week. She reminds me about it EVERY day. I think I'm the lazy one!Karihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04889762823677092138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4354720323394973077.post-6046649755525431202010-02-18T21:49:14.730-06:002010-02-18T21:49:14.730-06:00love this:) but, i've seen you in action and ...love this:) but, i've seen you in action and seen your sweet kiddos, so i don't think anyone is suffering by your "realness". i may be crafty and a decent cook, but i give my kids WAY too much candy, DO cuss too much (if you count crap and damn and i'm pretty sure kids shouldn't be saying those), let them eat food that falls on the floor (almost any floor), make a point to ALWAYS have snacks in the car, and Piper loves All American Rejects while Porter's fav is Lady Gaga. Shew...I feel better now:) You're not alone, sista! Thank God that in our weakness, He is Strong!!Pricelesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08906521602572732428noreply@blogger.com
