Friday Funnies

Yesterday, Evalyn was playing barbies in her room. Her brother and his friend were running in and out, making loud noises with a train whistle and a duck call (don't ask!). After 10 minutes of this, Evalyn comes to the top of the stairs and yells, "MOOOOOOOOM, the boys are in my ROOOOOOOOM and they are driving me CRAZY!!!!" It is only the beginning sweet girl. Wait until they are teenagers!

Not Me Monday

It is that time, once again, to talk about all the things I did not do this week, and boy do I have some doozies. Head over to MckMama's blog to join in on the fun!

I did not walk into the playroom as my daughter was watching t.v.and hear her say, "I saw a bra on t.v., mom! It was soooooo pretty. I want a Barbie bra with sparkles on it. I looooooove bras!" My daughter is only three. She is way to young to even know what bras are for, let alone be asking for one!
As my son was in thick of potty training this week, I did not find that he wants to to do things on his own, and therefore he does not try to take care of any accidents he has all by himself. This does not mean that I have found my hand towel in the laundry basket, used as toilet paper, with ummmm, skid marks, not once, but twice. He did not come to me and want to show me his finger, have me smell it, and then tell me he got poop on it and I needed to wash it off. I am waaaaaayyyy to smart to smell a three-year-old boy's finger when he asks me to, and that definitely did not happen. I also did not spend this whole post talking about bras and poop. That is gross and I am definitely more sophisticated than that......

Friday Funnies

Evalyn is getting very curious about her body parts. As I was changing Judah's clothes, she pointed to his chest and said "what are those, mom?" Not being quite ready for this conversation, I decided to answer honestly. "Those are nipples, honey." She then lifts up her shirt and says, "I have nipples too!" "Yes, you do" I answer. She then asks, "Do you have nipples, mom?" "Ummmmmm, yeah." "Can I see them?" "Ummmmm, NO." I could hear her father in the kitchen laughing at our anatomy conversation, and I am sure he was glad to have avoided this one!


Along with the whole nipple conversation, I just thought of another funny story. I watch two other children during the week, and the little girl is very curious about nursing. She has lots of questions when I am feeding Judah, and I never realized how much she paid attention to it (she is only 2 after all!). One day, she was getting ready to go, and her mom and I were chatting. She came to sit beside me and told me she wanted to hold Judah. I sat him in her lap, and then watched as she lifts up her shirt and brings him close to her. "He's hungry!" I had to run and get my camera so I did get a picture of that priceless moment....

Not so much....

Since my boy hit 6 months on the 8th, I thought it might be time for him to start solids. The twins took to it right away, but, as you can see, Judah was having none of it. Maybe having to sit in a pink bumbo was distracting him! He has now tried cereal twice, and I even put a little banana in it last time. Nothing. I thought that, if he was eating a little more, he might let his mama sleep through the night. I guess he just isn't ready yet!
