Quiet tonight....

Hubby is always amazed how my arm can reach around the seat and pick toys off the floor or give the kids something. When he is in the passanger seat and the kids want something it is like he can't turn around or reach anything. I think what is wrong with you it is so easy and you make it look real hard.

Moo are you home yet?

Can You change the bum of a twisting toddler in the front seat of a mini van (or Suberban in some cases) with a frozen baby wipe, and re-dress without ANY passersby realizing what you are doing? Hmmm? In the Toddler- Wrangling event of the Summer Mama Olympics, I say: BRING. IT. ON!

Why do I have to re-dress???? Here in Kansas the mamas generally stay dressed while don on the fly diaper changes..... unless of course this is the decathalon of the Summer Mama Olympics and I have already been spit-up upon from head to to and had to fashion myself an outfit using only items from the bottom of my minivan......

Twinkie - Give me the cold anyday! There just ain't nothing like getting all dolled up to go out and before the AC can start working in the truck you're hair is flat, your make up is running and you have underarm sweat rings. Nothing smells better than 4 wild boys wet from the rain AND sweating. We might be able to throw on flip flop(or CROCS in our case.) and go. But we still have the same arguments leading up to the putting on of the shoes and the actual leaving to the store. We got there once and one of them didn't even HAVE shoes. Your kids whine about the cold, mine whine about not being able to breathe because the heat and humidity is so high when you first get in the truck that it sucks the breath right out of you as soon as you open the door. You hate the cold because it's cold there. I hate the heat because it's been hot here for 9 full months with only a couple days here and there since Oct. that have been nice. If I lived there and you lived here, it'd be the same complaints from different people. Seriously, even going to the beach tomorrow isn't cheering me up much. It's not only been hot and humid, it's been cloudy. I'm hoping the beach will be better since we live more inland and it sometimes tends to be more cloudy inland. It just really sucks to be stuck inside for the last 9 months because it's so hot. We still have summer time mosquitos as soon as the sun starts to set. They come from nowhere and swarm on you!

Five point harness? What's the point. My youngest wiggles his way out. I look back and he's leaning foward, both arms out of the straps.

Ahhh... MommyP... the joys of motherhood are universal (no offense disney fans)! I am a transplanted southerner so I know of the bugs, heat and worst of all, humidity! It does suck and I enjoy our springs and falls but when it is windy and icy I wonder why in the world I live in the forsaken prairie! I am laughing about the shoe wars....

Totally with you on the 5 pt harness.... we just call our baby Houndini. Not only is he unhooked and leaning forward he is kicking the back of my seat to make his new shoes light up (Grandma bought them ).....

What, you've never made a halter top out of a Walmart bag (or two )and a skirt with a Winnie the Pooh sunshade, an Animal Kingdom map circa 1996 and a bungie cord?

no!!!! halters are not my look but I have used a receiving blanket as a sarong.... don't worry I fashioned a slip (for modesty) out of old sunday school papers and coloring sheets and accessorized (for style) with jewelery I strung together using dental floss and froot loops....

Halter tops, changing bums in a moving vehicle, sarongs (whatever the heck that is) Welcome to chick talk. Here is a topic. Who will win the SuperBowl? My darkhorse pick is .....

the Philadelphia Eagles. Where is that stupid remote control?

Wheat!!!! did you know diet Pepsi is the official softdrink of the NFL?

Twinkie- Modesty? You totally win. True story, I have actually used a Walmart bag and a hand towel as a make-shift diaper in an emergency. Forgot which baby it was but he had no idea how degraded he looked.

Yet another reason you should be an NFL fan. And, I'm reporting you to the DFS.

DubbyaT-1-3-8!!! My favorite place to hide the remote is in the freezer. Or, a savvy wife can remove the batteries and watch all the fun. The average man will shake, smack, blow-on, re-direct before he actually stands and repeats the shaking, smacking...as he walkes towards the infared sensor, scratching his chin....Whilst I practically bust my gut laughing. He's "ON to me" though after 10 years of marriage. Now he can tell by weight if the remote feels lighter. This is NOT FUNNY!

Twinkie, I'm making Hoagies and chili dip and a veggie tray and I'm wearing a brown and pink yoga outfit (it's just darling!) I wonder what all the commercials will be! Hopefully half-time wont be LAME.

GO UTES!

 

[TwinkieMama]

You actually hide the mote control? I just let the baby use it and then he leaves it somewhere and watch DH's blood pressure skyrocket... (come now it is always in the couch, under the couch or under the bookshelf...not that hard to find)

Twinkie:
