Dee-sgusting!

I made some applesauce recently and tried serving it to the kids. Rick and I both love it (and so do a few others in the house), but Zachary is not-too-thrilled with the few lumps and chunks that are in it.

At dinner, Rick tried to convince Zachary that the applesauce was tasty.

R: Eat it. It's really good.

Z: No, it isn't.

R: Mommy made it. It's delicious.

Z: It isn't delicious. It's de-sgusting!

While getting breakfast ready for the kids, Zachary came in the kitchen and asked what we were having. I told him 'bagels' and he immediately started whining. And whining. And WHINING.

He loves bagels, so amid all the screaming I asked him, "Since when don't you like bagels?"

The whining immediately stopped.

"Bagels? Oh. I thought you said 'pickles'!"

Z: "Mom. I need some more pants - my drawer is empty."

(Mommy digs through a laundry pile).

Z: "Can you buy me some new pants? With patches on them?"

Can you tell who gets a lot of hand-me-downs and yard sale finds? *grins*

Since you voted...

On your way home from voting, be sure to wear your sticker into a few local stores and pick up some bonus freebies for taking part in another election day.

Starbucks is offering a free 12 oz. cup of coffee.

Krispy Kreme has some yummy star shaped patriotic donuts for you.

Check in too with your local Chick-fil-A. Some stores are offering a free chicken sandwich (but you have to trade in your "I Voted" sticker...so hit this one last!). On a side note, there are only 56 days left to get their peppermint chocolate chip shake - hey, the sandwich is free, so might as well add dessert in too!

And if you are lucky enough to have a Ben and Jerry's - stop in between 5-8pm and pick up a free scoop.

Things I Never Thought I Would Hear...

"Sorry, Mom. I didn't mean to glue the girl's bedspread to their bed."

And, yes. He really did.

The Early Bird Gets the Guitar

I thought I'd gotten up before the kids were fully functioning this morning.

I threw in a load of laundry. Ground some wheat...apparently the noise I made was a mere coverup for a more elaborate plan of Zachary's.

While I was getting breakfast ready I kept hearing guitar music and couldn't figure out where in the world it was coming from.

Until I walked in the boy's room - and found Rick's $800 guitar in Kaleb's crib.

I'm sure it just magically appeared there without a bit of help from anyone.

It Oddly Disturbs Me

I know that there are plenty of other things in life that should cause me more alarm, but had to take a picture of one thing that made my list today.

I know that it is a mere doll.

But when the kids were napping and playing today, I would come around the corner and jump, thinking somebody was there.

And it made me feel like I was being watched.

Which just greatly bothered me.

Grocery List by Aisle

Having a list to grocery shop (for me) is essential - and I hate wasting time wandering around the store for that one thing that was buried in a list somewhere, so I put together a grocery list grouped by catergories/aisles to help me out. And if it helps you out too, that's an added bonus!
