A Game...


I was given this container of soda tops on Monday. I do not know who donated them, they dropped them off at my mom's work and she was not there. (She was at my house being a slave driving, mulch throwing, weed pulling crazy woman-Really Mommy...I love you and appreciate your help!!!) So, to make this a little fun...Let's Guess how many soda tops are in there. The container is 7.25 inches X 7.25 inches X 11 inches high. I did not include the rim. Whomever guesses correctly or closest to the correct amount I will send them a silicone Chiari Bracelet. These are Gabe's absolute favorite and wears 1 on each wrist at all times. Of course, we know this family and love them much. The deadline to guess is Monday May 25th at 11:59pm. :)

The difference

in a few hours, less than 2 to be exact....

Hannah the Hairdresser...



First off, please let me tell you that these tears are NOT from cutting her hair. They are because she got in trouble for playing with scissors and lying to mommy. She thinks that her hair looks beautiful. I could have cared less if it were not 4 weeks to recital and recital pics have not been taken yet.

My mom stopped by yesterday to see the disaster that Hannah caused to her hair and Lindsay said to my mom...

Lindsay: Remember how Daddy yelled at me when I pulled my loose tooth out? That was loud! Can you imagine how much more loud he is going to be when he sees Hannah's hair?

Oh yes child, you hit the nail right on the head....

Science....I hope?

As shared with a friend....

Me: My daughter (Lindsay) wants to keep a baby earth worm in a bucket and see how long it takes them to die....
Her: oh my
Me: Yep. Why do you want to know that Lindsay? "So that I know how long I can keep a baby earth worm until it dies. So if it take 4 days for the worm to die, the next worm I will let go back to the wild in 3 days. Doesn't that make sense? Why kill a bunch of worms on accident when you can sacrifice 1 and the others will live?!"
Her: maybe she wants to be a scientist when she grows up
Me: She wants to be a nurse that works with Gabe who is going to be a dancing neurosurgeon...
Her: LOL well that should be interesting
