Out of the Mouths of Babes.....

Some people say that children should been seen not heard, well I think that they just didn't have the little comedians my kids seem to be. This is going to be on going post and I will periodically add to it. Here are a few things that have tumbled out of my kids mouths:

1) My daughter Stella talks in her sleep quite a bit. One night she was asleep on our bedroom floor when out of nowhere she blurts out " My butts scared!" Hubby and I busted up laughing. We still tease her from time to time when she seems scared.

2) My son, who's 3, has not quite mastered wiping his own bottom  yet. One night after finishing going to the bathroom, he called for my husband to come in to wipe him up. From the other room I hear my son ask my son ask my husband " Did you hear the smell from my butt?" and then hear my husband laughing and saying "Yeah buddy I hear it smells awful." I was laughing so hard tears welled up in my eyes!

3) One day my daughter and I were at Walmart and I noticed that some items had been added to my cart that I didn't put in. I asked "Did you put this stuff in here?". She said "No mommy. Maybe a goblin did it." She was so serious when she said it I really didn't know what to say so I just started laughing.

4) My son is a biter. When he gets mad or frustrated he is most likely going to bite you. Now that he's getting older it's not as frequent but still inexcusable  behavior. Every time it happens I ask why did you bite? And as of lately he looks up at me and says "It was an accident mommy, I'm not lying." Now he got this from me. I have been trying to explain to my kids that accidents happen, everybody has them, and that they need to forgiven and you move on. Well I guess I can say that I got my point across!

What Next?

   Ever have one of those days where you wonder what could possibly happen next? Well I've had 6 months of that. It started when my husband got appendicitis and almost died over Christmas. It seems that ever since one thing or another has gone wrong. The latest thing to happen is I got a flat tire right down the street from my house. I left my car on the side of the road overnight waiting on a tow truck to take it up to Walmart to have it fixed when they opened. At 4:30 that morning I get a call from the Davenport police department. Apparently someone driving past, saw a group of men standing around my car and thought it was suspicious, so they called the police. The police showed up and discovered that they were trying to break into my car and syphon my gas. The officers came and picked me up and brought me down to my car to make sure all was as it should be and that I had the same amount of gas as before. All appeared to be as it should... until I went to get gas on my way to work today. I'm standing filling my car when all of a sudden I look down because something doesn't sound right and I'm standing in a lake of gasoline that has just fallen out of the underneath of my car!! So as of right now my car is at Firestone and I'm waiting to hear what those idiots ended up doing to my car. I seriously am hoping that it was them that broke my car and not just God having a go at me.
   On a different note, I thought it was ironic that when I signed in to write this post, that Amazon had this link for Adele for me to put up because this is what I was listening to while I waited for my tow truck. I love this CD it is very relaxing and helped make a crappy situation a little less crappy by calming me down. So if you haven't picked this up yet or you have never heard it before you should really get it because it is an awesome CD! I would also like to thank my first follower, deb126, for following me you're awesome!

Newbie!

So here we go..my first blog post!

Here's a little about me. I'm 32, married, and have three kids ages 11, 5, and 3. Currently we live in Davenport, Iowa in an apartment with our three dogs, two cats, ferret, and ball python. See where the chaos comes in? My husband and I both work with special needs individuals and I am currently working on getting my CNA license. I enjoy spooky stuff whether its books or movies the scarier the better. As a matter of fact I just reached out to a local paranormal society in hopes of joining their investigative team! I will definately share my stories with this particular interest. What else? I love entering online sweeps and this is how I actually got started with my blog. Now not only do I enter sweeps but I'm really starting to grow an interest in doing reviews like  a lot of other bloggers. I'm hoping that a veteran blogging diva will take me under her wing a perhaps mentor me on how to start because I really have no clue, seriouly I bought a book... Blogging for Dummies. It is helpful,  extremely overwhelmingly helpful with all the information, I don't know where to begin. So please someone take pity on this newbie! Peace and love to all....
