Kids

I thought that I would make a couple of observations about some things.....some kids and some other stuff. Perhaps my childless friend might get a chuckle.

1) The innocence of the kids is so cute, today while using a plunger on the toilet (come on, thats worth a chuckle right there!) because Holly only goes every three days (thats two), I had to repeatedly tell Ryan to keep is hands out of the swirling water. He just has no concept that it might not be a great idea to touch.

2) On Sunday night we went over to Michelle's parent's house. We had a couple ideas about getting Michelle's Dad to help us throw together a birdfeeder based on a picture in one of Michelle's golden books. We ended up building it in 20 minutes, and then we put it up the next day. It is pretty cute, I'll try to post a picture today.

3) Last night's episode of Scrubs was quite good! The show has really matured over this past year, just since the beginning of this season it has maintained it's comedy status, but become so much more. Sophisticated is quite a wierd word to use for a show that I have been watching since the premiere, but I can't think of any other one that would cover the concept.

4) Kelly, Kyle, I am sorry, I just don't get Napolean Dynamite. I sat through the first 45 minutes, and thought to myself that I would rather be getting a Digital Prostate Exam. (come on, that is good for another one, digital means finger......the exam is done by going, well, the least desirable route).

5) Ryan has been having trouble with some of his words......he mixes some of them up. He picked up a bad of pretzels and started asking me to open them, so he could eat the pencils contained inside. And a couple of weeks ago we bought a Kids Streetside Warning Device, which for some reason got named Gilbert. But Ryan only refers to it as "Yogurt". I guess it sounds similar.

6) I'm on antibiotics for an Ear Infection (otitis media). But, I feel like I got run over. Aches and pains, and exhustion. I'm not used to feeling like this, even on a bad weekend with the kids.....I haven't had an ear infection in a while, but I have quite the history of them when I was a kid.

Well, I think I'm going to go sleep for a bit, while the kids are too.

    1. IDIOT! (Nepolean Dynamite - maybe if you watched the whole thing you would appreciate.)

    2. I like the bird feeder, even though you mocked Nepolean Dynamite.

    3. Scrubs - I like it, but I am don't watch it like you do.

    4. NEPOLEAN DYNAMITE ROCKS! Did you see the cake part? What about the milk part?? Or the boon doggle?? Huh, huh, did ya? yea, you probably wussed out WAY to early. Even my dad thought it was funny.
