My Mouth is Squeaky!

Yesterday the bug man came to spray or house so the boys had to be taken out. I packed them up in the van and went out to do whatever I could think of. We ended up going to Target where I purchased a new dress (to replace the same one I had to return after it shrunk in the wash...and I got it $5 cheaper!) and a new skirt as well as some fun things for the boys and a new dress for my mom.

While I was hooking Monkey into his seat I asked him if he wanted pancakes (McDonalds) or chicken (Chic-fil-A) for breakfast. He put both hands on his cheeks and said, "hmmm." So I asked him again. He said, "Well, I don't really eat a lot of pancakes but I DO eat hot dogs!" Then he tried to reassure me that hot dogs were a suitable breakfast because he eats them all the time. I am assuring you that he only eats them at lunch and dinner.

Then as we were driving down the road he said, "My mouth is squeaky! Can you fix it when we get there?" I said I would. I still have no idea what a squeaky mouth is. No clue at all.

Other than that, not much has been happening. I had a nice relaxing weekend with shopping and laziness galore. Lauren has been preparing meals using stuff from the farm so we had things like Kale Pie and Kohlrabi Casserole. Both of those things sound gross but they really were quite delish. The Kale Pie was really just like a spinach and sausage quiche and the Kohlrabi Casserole was a yummy creamy and cheesy meat and cabbage kind of thing with mashed potatoes. I'm a fan of these new and different recipes.

I have a pile of books waiting to be read and a possible beach vacation in the near future where I will have plenty of time to read them.

Monkey is going to be getting his tonsils and adnoids out and new tubes put in his ears. This is good because it will mean longer periods of time where he is actually a healthy and happy kid. Most of his mood swings are usually a side effect of him feeling icky (ie, ear infections, tonsilitis, etc.). I still can't help but feel a little bad for him having to go through that surgery so young. But the younger it happens, the faster it heals.

He's also been doing good with the potty training. Things turned around recently and as much as I would like to get excited about it and share, I'm afraid to jinx it so that's all I will say.

So there's an update for you. We are watching 101 Dalmations right now and I am remembering that I kinda don't like this movie. I don't hate it (like Pinocchio, I HATE that movie) but I don't really like it either. Monkey loves it though so whatever.
