A Sucker for Matching Tshirts

So here is what I did this morning:

In all honesty, the black shirt on the left is from Target; it’s a candy corn heart.  I got the orange romper for KB and added the sequin candy corns.  The pumpkin is an iron on for Bubba. 

Add a couple orange hair bows and a pair of khaki pants and shazam!
Talk about cute pumpkin patch pictures. . .

One Less Marital Squabble

You know the classic marital argument about whether or not to squeeze the toothpaste from the bottom or the middle? We have never had an argument about that, but it is always used as an example as one of those things that rips marriages apart – whatever.

Well, I have a $4 therapy for all you stressing couples out there.  Read your toothpaste tube! Have you ever done that? No? I mean, why would you? But, I was reading the back of my toothpaste tube today (don’t ask) and it says, “Squeeze from the bottom and flatten as you go up.”  Yes, there are directions on toothpaste, for Pete’s sake. 

So, she wins or he wins and go back to laughing in the morning.
This was so random but I had to share.

Hooked on Responsibility


I hung these hooks over the weekend. Little was right in the middle of it all and asking 100 questions the same question 100 times. 

“What are you DOING?” she would ask.
“I am hanging hooks for your backpacks; one for yours and one for Bubba’s.”
“What – Are – You – Doing?” she would ask.
“I am hanging hooks for your backpacks; one for yours and one for Bubba’s.” I replied again.  Patiently.  I am amazing.
“What are you DOING?” I heard again.  It just kept coming.
Finally I told her (calmly – after all, I am amazing), “I am hanging hooks for your backpacks.  You will come home from school and hang your backpack on your hook.  You are going to learn responsibility!”

For the next five minutes there was a kitchen parade and the music playing was Little’s voice saying, “I am learning responsibility!”
