The latest

Just a few snippits from the last few days...

The kids birthday party where one of the boys yelled "Mrs. Incredimom [referring to me] is stinky!" over and over, did the opposite of "Simon Says", and then finally grabbed my boob when I was the stoplight in "Red Light Green Light." I nearly spanked him.

Annie's birthday--she was so happy with her tinkerbell cake and all the fairies that she got. Never mind that Barbie's Fairytopia fairies look like hookers. I can't decide which look trampier: the fairies or Bratz dolls.

Playing 20 questions with the kids. The kids had narrowed it down to an adult male living with Grandma.
Annie: "Is this person black?"
Me: "No"
Annie: "Is this person brown?"
Me: "No."
Annie: So it's not Grandpa?

Johnny loves when people are afraid of something. I told him I was afraid of bugs one day when we were sitting at breakfast. Under the table he knocks. I say, "Who is that at the door?" John answers "It's a bug." Today while Matt was reading the paper and John was eating cereal, Johnny asks Matt what he is afraid of. "Inflation," Matt answers. And of course, knock knock knock, "Dad, I think that's inflation at the door."

When out to dinner downtown with my mom, I got a little turned around, and in a tizzy of getting to the restaurant on time, I missed the signs for speed bumps ahead and flew over them at 20mph. Plastic flap covering the underbelly came down. Took it in, and it turns out that zip ties can do wonders. Total damage only $31.
