The funny ones

March 28, 2007

Last night Jacob and I were watching one of those funniest home video shows. Jacob kept asking me why people were laughing at certain videos. He then told me, "Mommy, I'm only going to laugh at the funny ones."

Poop, and lots of it

Tuesday, March 13, 2007

Saturday night I was helping Jacob in the bath when I hear Micah yelling, "Ben pooped on the floor and he's walking it all around the carpet!" I had just recently given him a bath and he didn't want his diaper on and I didn't want to fight it, so... I run in there and sure enough, poop everywhere nd it smells horrible. I don't really even know where to begin. Half of it was on this huge mat they have in the playroom, so I put that straight into the washing machine. I then proceed to basically smear the other spots into the carpet even more, along with some Resolve carpet cleaner (which doesn't even work very well.) That doesn't do much but rub it in, so I move on to boiling water and lots of towels. I finally get out my Kirby with the carpet cleaning attachment on it and the belt burns, I start crying and then feel that my silent prayers have been answered when I suddenly remember where the extra belt is, well, that belt burns too! So, now it smells like poop and burning rubber, mmmmmm nice! Ben sees me sitting on the floor crying and comes over and huds me and says, "Sorry Mommy." Ok, so cute to hear a 1 1/2 year old say that. I end up just shampooing the carpet with out the belt on the cleaner, which means that the brush just isn't spinning, not as effective for sure, but what are you gonna do?

Mommy's bad guy eyebrows

March 12, 2007

Tyler and I both took a nap today (Sunday) and when I woke up (to Ben crying, he was napping too) I went and got Ben out of his crib and went into Micah and Jacob's room. Micah said, "Mommy why are you eyebrows sticking up like a bad guy?"

I guess they got a little messed up while I was sleeping and were sticking up.

Daddy's song

December 26, 2006

Tyler was singing a made up song to Jacob and Jacob asked him to stop because, "It gives my thumb a headache."

The Luv Cub

  Jacob was getting dressed for church with his Luv Cub (toy bear that whines for hugs and food, etc.) next to him.  I (Tyler) walked in the room and he said, "This Luv Cub keeps bothering me!"  He keeps on asking for hugs and stuff while I'm trying to get dressed."  I quickly pointed out that he should now know how a parent feels.

Drunk

December 10, 2006

We were driving to Nana Byn and Papa Ron's house for Sunday dinner and the boys were watching the Book of Mormon DVD in the van. The story about the Nephites escaping the Drunken Lamanites was on and Micah asked what "drunk" meant. I told him that when people drink alcohol they can get drunk and it makes them act stupid and do weird things. He was quiet for a while and then asked if Adam (Aunt Lindsay's boyfriend at the time) drank alcohol. I said, "Yes." and Micah asked, " Is that why Adam did all those big splashes in the pool." Jacob then asked why Aunt Lindsay brings Adam with her evrywhere. Micah said, "She doesn't." That was the end of that conversation.
