Reallllly need to be careful what I say sometimes...

So allright, I do not ever cuss in front of my son, and am pretty good about not saying things in general that could go south when repeated by a 3 year old.

Welp, tonight was different. We were all watching Dora as a family, and that darn Swiper came and stold the railroad tracks so the train had to stop, did the evil laugh, and says his classic "You'll NEVER find them now! heh heh heh!" At this point, I have clearly had enough of Swipers schenanigans, I look at my husband and I say "Swiper is SUCH d-bag." To which my sweet little inncoent baby says "Yeah Swiper is just a d-bag."

And I proceeded to bury my face in a pillow and LMAO as my husband tells my son that mommy is '"real mature".

Agreed.

And yes, I pulled myself together long enough to say "Now don't say that, it wasn't nice, mommy shouldn't have said that. I'm sorry."

And again buried my face to laugh.

Oh, what it takes to make a 3 year old happy....

Well, I haven't had a whole lot to post on lately, so here's a story about my son, that he reminded me of today:

One day, on one of days off, i was sitting here at the computer, which is where I spend most of my time when I'm off work, for lack of anything better to do, and it was some time in the afternoon, when the mail comes. We have a mail slot in our front door that my son likes to play with. He'll put little toys through it, push it open, whatever, keeps the child entertained.

So he was pushing his hands through, and I hear the screen door open, and I hear my dear son say "Thank you!" and a female voice say 'You're welcome!" and I turn around just in time to see him, mail in hand, taking his hand out of the mail slot. He totally reached through the slot and took the mail from the mail carrier, who I can only imagine got a good laugh, and possibly even a little weirded out by the small, tiny hand & arm coming through the mail slot. But I found this HILARIOUS and so cute, and I proceeded to laugh my butt off once I realized what he just did.

Ever since, as soon as he hears the mail, he gets up and runs to the door, but is usually too late. Today, he came close, the mail was pushed through the slot and he got up and pushed open the slot door & said "Thank you!" and laughed and said "Mom he waved at me!" which of course, gave me another good laugh.

We actually had a good day today, which was nice considering just 2 days ago I was a crying hysterical mess, begging him to be nice to me. Nothing makes you feel bipolar quite the way children do. I never thought I stand in front of my child, bawling, asking through my tears "Why aren't you nice to me? Can't you see how upset I am? please, just stop!!" of all the things I've been called in my life, of all the things done to me in my life, my kid calling me a poop head, throwing toys and making a mess is what it takes to make me lose it. *Sigh*

Take THAT Jon!!

Hahahaha after a long day of work, chasing kids to clean their teeth, and sprinting to push the xray button, before they push the film out, I am ex.haus.ted. BUT I just got a good laugh, because msn.com reported that Jon Gosselin must repay $180,000 by the next court date (Oct. 26). And it made me think to myself Take THAT a*hole, apparently the courts don't feel it was that innocent, way to stick it to him, Kate!!!

Oh, I feel like I should have so much to say, I haven't blogged for a few days...we did find out we are expecting a little girl, which excites me and scares the crap out of me all at once. I DID also fail my first glucose test- WITH FLYING COLORS!!! And will going on for the 3 hour test tomorrow, which my doctor said she is confident I will fail as well. Hmm. I'll keep you updated on this goes...The funny part is, is as I was on the phone explaiing everything to a friend of mine, I was stuffing my face with peanut butter fudge.

As Jon's Light-Head Turns....

So, I just watched the Insider videos online of Jon's day 2 on the Insider (thank you babymama at Gosselin Family Fan Site), nothing really shocks me anymore with this guy. For 2 days now, he's willingly gone on this show, for the sole purpose of everyone else on the panel telling him what he's doing wrong, all so he can throw his hands up and be at a loss for words when they make their point. Which is HILARIOUS, but almost not even entertaining at this point, because all of America has been doing this for about 6 months now.

It's really none of our business, how many bank accounts they have, and how much is in them and whatever. I don't care. That is private information. when Kate discussed this on the Today show, she was already planning on appearing and this happened right before she went, so naturally, she's gonna talk about it. I don't blame her for being upset at all, I don't blame her for talking about it, I'd do the same thing if I were in that situation. He's a scumbag. If Jon is so innocent, he should've had his lawyer take care of the issue (this is the kind of thing they are getting paid to do, right?) and on his appearances, simply said, "My lawyer is taking care of it, there's no issue, she spoke prematurely, it's settled, or in the process of being settled." INSTEAD, he chooses to say oh look, here's my bank statements, so we can all track his every move. Which is a sham because he only showed 1 withdrawel statement to my knowledge, which doesn't prove anything except that 1 withdrawel. Way to think that one out Jon.

What next? Really, what next?

Can it get ANY worse???

Agh so as I was watching the season finale of Kourtney & Khloe Take Miami, I see the ticker at the bottom stating Jon Gosselin has emptied the joint account he shares with Kate, leaving her with $1000.

Really, Jon? Really? Do you think this HELPS the situation? Does it?

I can't wait to see Kate on the Today show tomorrow, I have to work, so I have it set up to record. I am FUMING!!!! Kate has reportedly hired a high-power attorney. I think the claws are finally going to come out. This should be an interesting week. I'll follow up on this tomorrow.

An Ode to Saturday Mornings

Okay, so I'm not really gonna write an ode. But it is 9:15 and let me tell you how my day is going so far.

My 3 year old finally accomplished the potty training feat this summer. However, we still have nighttime accidents an average of twice a week. I'm okay with this. I expect it. The issue comes when it is Saturday or Sunday morning and my angelic child waked up before mommy & daddy and for whatever reason, REFUSES to leave his room until we get up & let him out. This is where the majority of the accidents come from.

So this morning, I hear him shouting "ACORN! ACORN!" which is funny because he not only does not have a real acorn, he doesn't have toy that resembles an acorn.

I digress.

I hear the shouting, decide I better get up. I go potty myself, hack up the lower lobe of my right lung (it's true, I saw it. I'm still fighting this cold.) and make my way into my offspring's room. And the first thing he says is

"Mommy, I didn't pee in my pants! I went to the potty!"

Me: "You DID?!? I'M SO PROUD OF YOU!!"

And then come the hugs & kisses & all that. So we go into the kitchen, so he can pick what he wants for breakfast and he drops the bomb:

"Actually, I didn't go in the potty." (I love his use of the word "actually")

"You didn't?"

"No. I peed on the floor."

"Austin, did you pull your pants down and pee on the floor?"

Head shake and smile, yes.

"Why did you do that?"

"Because I wanted to."

"Dogs pee on the floor Austin, and they get in trouble for it. Don't do that again. Your carpet is gonna smell like pee. That's gross."

He laughs.

So that's how my day has gotten started. Oh- and I walked in the pee spot too. He wasn't lying. And now, I'll be attempting to take my child to a public place- a craft show, where they always cheap mums and pumpkins that I MUST have. My husband thinks I'm brave for taking him, I think I'm brave too. lol
