Hi Spongie, welcome!

I lurk over on the thin peeps thread (except WT made me come out of hiding).

Tell UMA she is being missed by a cracker fanatic.

Yak, sorry, I almost missed your post.

Thanks for stopping by. Please post more, what have you been up to? Still changing directions?

Frickles, Jami, Java, Haley, Grammy, Kimmie? I know if left people out, rats! (forgive me, please)

Please post more than a drive by, let us know how you are, I think we all showered within the last week or two......
 
TGIF - although I have no idea why that makes me happy, just means everyone will be back in the house all weekend and they just went back a couple of days ago.

Looks as if the tea went well, with the imaginary friends :rotfl2: Pictures required. I have posted some doozies of me looking less than "perfect" so spill them out. I don't think I have found a perfect picture yet. :confused3

Marita - I just noticed a post where you said you needed cigs, wine and gas. The pantry staples :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: Do NOT clutter the cabinets with bread and milk.

Snowing in Utah. It is suppossed to be 71 here today. That is warmer than some days when we were in Florida. My planter boxes are confused and the spring flowers are coming up.

Nab - are we getting any better??? The trip is close, when are you telling them?

Mommy P - welcome back. What were your dates in the world? I think we may have passed each other. :idea:

I still do not have all my Christmas decorations down, but plan to finish today. Then I guess I need to find the "trend" for Valentines, per UTM :eek:

Pumba - sorry about all the troubles with your Mom's. It is tough when they are ill.

Ok I need to go to the grocery and Wally World. Whats new :3dglasses

You know the drill
popcorn:: :grouphug: :coffee: :banana: :thumbsup2 :moped: :smokin: :stir:

:dance3: :dance3: :dance3:
 
NAB - SO cute about your daughter! I wish I had one! Boys just NEVER stop MOVING! They couldn't play with one toy for more than 5 minutes!

Grammy/My long lost Mommy - Good to see you! We went in Dec. from the 7th-10th.

Well, Saturday is supposed to be "partly sunny" whatever THAT means, so I am hoping to talk Chad into going to the beach. I just don't know if he'll go for it. He hates the gulf, it's so boring. No waves, ya know? I'll have to pull out the big guns and bribe him. ;)
 
Good gravy! You take one night off from lurking on the DIS to spend it with family and all sorts of fun gets going on..... cracker fanatics! child brides!

Hey MommyP! Gram! :dance3:

Sorry about your moms Pumba:hug:


Sorry I missed WheatThins doubling his post count. :upsidedow (ok I have no clue what that smilie means)

I have been hanging out on the riddle thread... where I confessed to a)never having been a beauty queen b) to actually having won textbooks in another contest...

Only a few days to my trip! We haven't told the kids at all!!!! Not even a Mickey sticker... they suspect nothing... buwhahahahahaha! I love it. I am seriously thinking of just telling them we are going to see Grandma and seeing how long before they figure it out... (it will just me the littles and me so I think they won't suspect until we board the ME bus)....
 
Twinkie, congrats on your ribbon, 15 lbs, WOW!

Grammy, DH takes care of the staples for the pantry and the milk and bread, so don't worry, nobody is starving here.
 
[Marita - I just noticed a post where you said you needed cigs, wine and gas. The pantry staples :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: Do NOT clutter the cabinets with bread and milk.



Heheheh... I have the preschool version of that list... no bread or milk but

Wheat Thins, Graham Crackers and Captain Crunch....:rotfl2:
 
Good afternoon everyone,

We missed you last night Twinkie.

We are thinking of telling the as on the way to the airport. We have to take them out of school early on the 26th our flight is at 7:30 but out of Buffulo. That means we have to drive 3 hours to the airport. But we save so much money it is worth it. Just as long as it doesn't decide to snow big time.

By the way I do not but milk in my cabinets. Don't like canned or powdered milk.

We are all finally healthy here. Hannah got her flu shot now. Poor thing has to get two. We have to go back in a month since she is under 8 and has never had one.

Mommy P-- believe me I have one boy and they are like night and day. Nicholas is a joker too. I don't know how you do it with 4. I am sure they all have different personalities though. And I heard girls can be just like boys. I just lucked out with a girly girl. Maybe your next one will be a girl.

Hello all!

I thought I would drop in and wish everyone a Happy New Year. My week gets back to normal starting on Monday (I hope!) I will do my best to be here a little more often! I miss you guys!

We are all doing well. I survived Christmas with my family this last weekend. IT was my turn to host and I had 18 all together for 3 days! Yikes! Thank God I don't have to do that again for 5 more years! IT's nice having siblings to help with this carp! :cool1:

I hope all of you had a blessed Christmas and start to the new year!
 
Dre, so nice to see you again!!!!!!!!!

I do hope you will stop by more. Boy, this holiday season sure lasted a long time this year it seems.
 
ok this is for MommyPoppins to cheer you up:

Say you want to go somewhere wild and crazy... like to the grocery store... you tell all the kids to find flip-flops, check to see if everyone has pants on and if the littlest needs a diaper change (right?)... then you buckle, strap, tug, adjust each and every car seat and then you go....

When it is cold or even worse... snowy... here is what you would need to do... tell all the kids to find socks and shoes. Argue about why it isn't appropriate to wear sandals or flip flops when the wind chill makes it 5 degrees... discover that all the children have taken off their socks and they are strewn around the house... look for a few minutes and after finding an odd number of socks and no matches, give up and get clean socks for the whole crew. Have the same agrument about shoes again becasue they think socks and strappy white Easter sandals is a good look. ( Of course the under 3 year olds need tie shoes because they can undo the velcro and tend to take them off and lose them in the most inopportune places.) Tie shoes for everyone. Have internal debate over if the heavy coats or the light jackets will do for this errand.. on the one hand it is really cold and that is the whole reason we bought heavy coats. On the other hand the heavy coats make it 3 times as hard to get the car seats adjusted correctly. Check the temperature 3 times and then put coats on everyone. Head outside to van. Wind blows fiercely and one child begins to whine for a hat and mittens. Decide that only Cruella DeVille prevents children from being warm so go inside to find hats and mittens for everyone. Peacemake the fight over whose turn it is to wear the pink mittens. Fend off any requests for gloves because those take forever. Go back out side. Buckle, strap and adjust all carseats. This requires you to be out in the wind and with your bottom half waggling in driveway for a good 10 minutes. Did you remember to do the diaper check? Too late now. Any lingering aroma will just add character to the car and maybe prevent the theft of the 3 scratched disney CDs laying on the front seat under the cheerios and french fries. At least 2 children will complain that the straps are too tight and that they can't breathe. Youngust child is busy undoing the 5 point harness. Give up and get into van. Go to store.
(And don't forget that as soon as you get inside you are pack mule to everyones coat, hat, and mittens)

Enjoy your day!!!!!

EXACTLY, except at least two have waited till secure to have poopy BLOW outs...siganalling the beginning of diarrea season. One toddler (who's name rhymes with Dora) has totally figured out her 5 point harness that my experienced/EXPERT fingers have trouble with and so one over 8 year old is her GUARD/ drill sergent and takes his job seriously! I think we'll DRIVE to Orlando next time with all of the above and some "Mother's Little Helper" for mama.

Toddler Wrangling is my area of expertise. It is an extreme sport seen as birth control to the young marrieds who wittness!

but have you won a big silver buckle at the Toddler Rodeo????? yee- haw!

Little Man (age 19 months) can totally get out of his carseat. And any potential gaurds/tattle-tales are firmly strapped into their carseats in the way back.

oooh another example of real life meets the DIS:
have you seen the new commercial for the Kill Bill movies on TBS????
of course the star is UMA and the commercial begins

"wakey wakey eggs and bakey"

I about died laughing.
 
Twinkie -- You got that so right. And I only have two. I hated getting my butt wet when it rained while everyone else including hubby was in the car while I was doing up car seats. So glad those days are gone. Hannah can do her own booster seat. Now I just have he is touching me, she touched me first. Can I stick one in the trunk? We don't have a mini van anymore, no back seats.

Dre nice to see you again. We've missed you and Lacto.

NO WAY!

Ok, the ONLY "sha" I know is from SHA Na Na :http://www.shanana.com/

If you google Sha, you get science-ish stuff. I dont see the coralation between YOU and science....

Isn't their a world leader called the Sha? (Iran in the 70's)

What about Sha Daisy? Oh, wait, that's She Daisy. I give UP!


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!
