Don't get it twisted, grandparents are great!


Sometimes, I just don't know what I would do without grandparents. Recently, I had my mom and dad fly down so we could go to a wedding in Austin. It's hard because they live in Indiana and we live in Texas but somehow they're always there when I need them. My mother-in-law too, she has never told us "no" (that I can recall). Even after finding out we were expecting number three, she swore she would never watch them all overnight. Not all three...Her words. Well guess who's bought a minivan for the grandkids?
I know they love them and I'm sure the best part about being my kids' grandparents is giving them back to me but I still don't know what I'll do if they weren't around. And don't get me wrong, we're not the kind of folks that drop them off every weekend. Not that there's anything wrong with that. It's just that things happen and soccer games are booked at the same time and there's only two of us. No Jane, I'm not gonna say you were right and that three was too many...But it sure is a lot. So I guess where I'm heading with this one is THANK YOU! Thank you for loving my boys, thank you for loving us enough to love our boys. And please don't stop offering to babysit.

Get your hands out of your brothers pants! ! Get your hands out of your butt!  Seriously, stop touching your butt! Don't wipe your hands on the dog. Get your Bat-A-Rang off the table.

IT GETS GROSS

I know it's been a while since my last post. And I was actually starting to doubt myself and think I couldn't do this. I mean what if I run out of material? This was literally just running through my mind and then I glanced at the toilet paper roll and saw the most disgusting thing in the world! And then it hit me, I'm never going to run out of material these boys are disgusting. So just a warning, this one's going to be nasty. A while back, my youngest Lincoln was going through a phase. Probably the same phase most crazy toddlers go through. Naked time. He would usually strip down to nothing but socks and then want to stay that way for the remainder of the day. Needless to say this left lots of little "messes" for me to clean up. One in particular I will never forget. It was a quiet afternoon at home and the big boys were doing homework while I was using the restroom...Or possibly trying to save my sanity by locking myself in a tiny little room w...
