first post of 2012

It's been a LONG time since I have blogged. But, in the words of AC/DC " I am BACK IN BLAAAACK!" Everyone at our house has a name for their bottom. Emma - Stop talking about my bottom - bottom, Brown - Hamburger buns bottom, Sayers -Sloppy Joe bottom (oh so fitting), Mary Frances - Pink Piglet Bottom. I need to figure out a pole to name my bottom & Ford's. Will work on that next....I am sure it will have something to do with my "bottom leaves"...
On another note, all of the kids are in bed with Ford right now. I have heard the following,
Ford: - "Brown, stop trying to touch my weiner. Football players DO NOT touch other people's weiners."
Sayers - (bawling hysterically): "Mommy, Mary stuck a screwdriver in my eye."
Ford - "Are y'all gonna let Mary Frances date anyone?"
Sayers - "Where are my balls?"
I promise to be a better blogger!!! I am trying to get ELLEN DEGENERES to follow me!!!!!

I have been M.I.A...

...because we moved to Dallas from Austin last week. Just before embarking on our adventure, poor Sayers fell on my mom's shoe scraper & ended up at the ER for a lacerated scrotum. I can't make it up. 6 stitches & 7 hours later...we got on the road to Dallas. I have spent the last few days organizing & settling in. Our internet just got up & running today...so, I will be posting again soon! Ciao!

Dingle berry

Well, Sayers is at it again. I heard some yelling coming from my bedroom. I looked & Sayers had a giant doo doo hanging off his shorts. WHICH...Stoley, the dog, promptly ate.

We've got new neighbors....

Their names are Lucy & Patty...and, they are CHICKENS. I thought they would be confined to their coop, but alas...I was wrong. Brown & Sayers have been feeding them cocoa puffs through the fence this morning. Brown also assured me that they could eat starbursts.

Wacky Wednesday

It's 9:13a & I have already found 2 articles in the toilet:

Sponge Bob toothbrush

Medicine dispenser

Emma & Brown have been playing dentist this morning. Some commentary I have heard from them:
Emma: "Dentist, where are your clothes?"
Brown: "I like to be a naked dentist...but, I will put my dentist clothes on so no one sees my bottom."

Emma using "dentist tools" aka. a WINE opener on her Fancy Nancy.

Tools that every GOOD dentist needs - plasticware, scissors, a wine opener, motrin & check book deposit slips.

ikea

I have a new obsession. It's called Ikea. Not only do they have cool stuff at affordable prices, BUT...you can also drop your kid off in the playland area & do some shopping. In fact, I was thinking I could host a dinner party at ikea. Drop the kids in the playland & then arrange for a dinner party in one of the dining room vignettes they have set up. OR, even better...drop them off for the day & go run errands around town, they don't have to know that I am not actually at Ikea, right? What an amazing concept!

Shortly after my last post, Sayers pooped in the yard. He then stuck a super soaker water gun in the poop & smeared it all over the garage. No pics as Ford managed to power wash it off before I had a chance to document.
