The DDA Trouble Free Zone Part 8

[rosiejo]

I think Kevin and I may have a problem on our hands...Alyssa posed like this all on her own at her cousin's birthday party!

Amy - that picture is so cute! Definitely one for the scrapbook

I thought all moms would get a kick out of this email I got from a friend.

Please remain seated as you read this - injury could result from the hysterical laughter that you will incur from reading the following passage.


Good luck ....



THE NEXT “SURVIVOR” TV SERIES

Six married men will be dropped on an island with one car and 3 kids each for six weeks. Each kid will play two sports and either take music or dance classes.

There is no fast food. Each man must take care of his 3 kids; keep his assigned house clean, correct all homework, complete science projects, cook, do laundry, and pay a list of "pretend" bills with not enough money.

In addition, each man will have to budget in money for groceries each week. Each man must remember the birthdays of all their friends and relatives, and send cards out on time. Each man must also take each child to a doctor's appointment, a dentist appointment and a haircut appointment. He must make one unscheduled and inconvenient visit per child to the Urgent Care (weekend, evening, on a holiday or right when they're about to leave for vacation). He must also make cookies or cupcakes for a social function.

Each man will be responsible for decorating his own assigned house, planting flowers outside and keeping it presentable at all times. The men will only have access to television when the kids are asleep and all chores are done. There is only one TV between them, and a remote with dead batteries. Each father will be required to know all of the words to every stupid song that comes on TV and the name of each and every character on cartoons.

The men must shave their legs, wear makeup daily, which they will apply to themselves either while driving or making three lunches.
Each man will have to make an Indian hut model with six toothpicks, a tortilla and one marker; and get a 4 year old to eat a serving of peas.

Each man must adorn himself with jewelry, wear uncomfortable yet stylish shoes, keep their nails polished and eyebrows groomed. The men must try to get through each day without snot, spit-up or barf on their clothing. During one of the six weeks, the men will have to endure severe abdominal cramps, back aches, and have extreme, unexplained mood swings but never once complain or slow down from other duties. They must try to explain what a tampon is for when the 6-yr old boy finds it in the purse.

They must attend weekly school meetings, church, and find time at least once to spend the afternoon at the park or a similar setting.

He will need to read a book and then pray with the children each night without falling asleep, and then feed them, dress them, brush their teeth
and comb their hair each morning by 7:00. They must leave the home with no food on their face or clothes.

A test will be given at the end of the six weeks, and each father will be required to know all of the following information: each child's
birthday, height, weight, shoe size, clothes size and doctor's name. Also the child's weight at birth, length, time of birth, and length of
labor, each child's favorite color, middle name, favorite snack, favorite song, favorite drink, favorite toy, biggest fear and what they want to be when they grow up.

They must clean up after their sick children at 2:00 a.m. and then spend the remainder of the day tending to that child and waiting on them hand and foot until they are better. They must have a loving, age appropriate reply to, "You're not the boss of me".

The kids vote them off the island based on performance. The last man wins only if...he still has enough energy to be intimate with his spouse at a moment's notice. If the last man does win, he can play the game over and over and over again for the next 18-25 years...eventually earning the right to be called Mother!

After you get done laughing, send this to as many females as you
think will get a kick out of it and as many men as you think can handle it.

for Bethie, have a great time tonight.

What a busy day I am having and it's not even 10:00 yet.

So the tooth fairy must be visiting Bethie and her little 2-3 yrs teeth. (if she picks up the teeth… she must help them come in also) The girl spikes a little fever, gets moody, sleeps and then is up off and on all night. Does she not now mommy has to look fabulous tonight? I have to be one hot military chick! I needed more sleep. I might have to settle for one rather good looking military chick.

I have left countless, numerous, scores of (did I say many) notes for the laundry fairy, but she must be on vacation, she just hasn’t come in yet. I do believe the kitchen fairy was by and the vacuum fairy always seems to drop in (it might be because of the dog hair).

Now if the tag fairy would just visit us all, it would be great.

Well I have a date with my timer. Ok… I have at least 3-4 dates with my timer before my mother comes to watch my kids for the night.

15 minutes right? I can do it! (I did it yesterday, I am trying it again today)

Read and post with you all later.

 

[Pooh67_68]

Tammi, reread my post. It says lets start a rumor.

Oh how exciting!!! Congratulations! Maybe you can get some tips from Denise.

 

[KMH1]

Well, after two ultrasounds and hearing only one heartbeat, numerous times, I'd say Kevin and I would do this and this if twins come out this summer!

All is fine.

Amy

 

[lmartin2711]

Amy is having twins.

Congrats Amy

 

[Tammi67]

Tammi, reread my post. It says lets start a rumor.

I know that, silly. See how good of a job I'm doing sounding believable!!!

What is so funny is that it wasn't how you said it......since we can't hear you......you can even TYPE believable

 

[bear74]

Okay I did a very dumb thing. I was doing laundry I went to hang up the clothes and could not remember if I had put laundry soap in the wash . SO I had to wash the load again.

Just home from our teacher workday, so I'm done with school for this year. Still have no idea what I'm teaching or days for next fall, and I'm still waiting to hear if I got the new job at my home church. Rumor is at my current school I will be offered the music teacher job. I hope so.

Rees has to go at 8:15 in the am. Ultrasound at 9:30am, Endoscopy at 11:15am. I'm wiped out and barely holding it together at the moment. I've been crying on and off since yesterday. I am so stressed and just ready for this to be over. We're going to church tonight for the dinner, prayer shawl presentation so I may not be back on again until tomorrow night late. I will try to post here or call someone to let you know how Rees did.

Thanks for the prayers and support.

 

[bethbuchall]

Denise-- and and lots of prayers. I'll be thinking about you and Rees tomorrow.

Tell Ramiro not to feel too bad, the kids around here don't get out until the 16th either and that is as long as there are no snow days to make up.

Our kids get out on the 15th. School usually starts after Labor Day although I think they start a week earlier this year.

Amy even with modern technology they have been known to miss a twin or two. Heartbeats could be the same so can easily miss one as well.

Ok, I didn't laugh as I think you describe me six weeks at a time.

Denise --



Let us know how things are going, whenever you get a chance!

 

[my3princes]

I went to the doctors today for my yearly "girl" exam. It had actually been 3 years since my last visit. Everything went well and if the pap comes back normal I don't need to go again for 3 more years . We discussed my weight loss as I was nearly 200 lbs at my last visit. She had asked me about bladder control issues which I had been having since the kids were born. I hadn't even realized that the issues had gone away with the weight I discussed losing more weight and she really jumped down my throat about not worry about what others think and just being at a medically healthy weight. I assured her that "medically" I could still stand to lose a few lbs. She pulled up my BMI and I am at 27% which she said was really good although on the high end of normal for my height. So she agreed that I could lose 10 - 20 lbs, but that I did not NEED too. She then told me that she expects me (all women) to gain 15 to 20 lbs between the ages of 40 - 50. That is when women gain belly fat which has something to do with the ovaries shutting down and the belly fat actually produces low levels of estrogen keeping us healthier . So I told her that I'd better get my butt in gear and lose weight now if she expects me to gain it back in a few short year She got a chuckle out of that.

Funny Thing: We did a skit on our campout and my 3 yr old Colby was the dentist. He had to say "Open Wide, This won't hurt a bit, HeHehehehehehe" When Colby did it he was so cute and the laugh was evil. So today when I'm in the stirups I kept hearing him say that. It was hard not to laugh.
