whatever eli wants….

I’ve given up the battle.

I just lose anyway.

I let my son wear whatever he wants.

So if he wants to wear his sister’s pajamas and go ride bikes.  Okay.

I guess.

But seriously can you please stop changing your clothes a bazillion times a day????

Griffin was the same way. I used to have clothes everywhere. I have a million pictures of him in his sisters clothes. He is super embarassed about them now that he's a big kid. LOL. The clothes thing drove me crazy so I geniusly decided to put his clean pants and shirts in laundry baskets and he could basically get into them and change a few times a day but he had to make sure the clothes stayed in the basket. Less mess and less of a battle.

That is so funny! My son LOVES wearing his sisters clothes/pajamas. Especially the silky ones! He has even gone to Walmart at one point wearing some of his sisters clothes. I wonder how that will fly when daddy comes home from deployment ;)

Heard that about so many kids. Thankfully (I guess) we don't have to deal with it. Lukas is not particular at all about the clothes he wears. He usually lets us choose.

Perhaps her pajamas are simply more stylish than his are?

And thank you for spelling "lose" correctly, unlike 65% of bloggers out there.

Oh no...he's in THAT stage now??!! I went through that with Landon...he was always wearing Bella's clothes and insisting on wearing them everywhere we went. And then he'd change like 4 times in one day, creating a butt load of laundry for me (more than I already had!)

Good news, though...this stage is temporary!!! You gotta admit that purple is a great color on him!

Love the picture of your husband. His facial expression is too much! And yes, just give up. They will do as they please evidently. Bean changes so much each day. I'm just glad she wants to put on clothes. I have a friend who has a child who always takes her's off. She is praying her child grows out of this before high school. :)

Champ

We met you in May of 2004 at the Humane Society. You were the only dog who could have cared less that there were humans walking around.  While all the other dogs barked and barked at us, you lay on the floor curled up and awake, yet quiet and uninterested.  We almost passed you by but after mentioning you to one of the employees they said you were a good boy and that we should take you out for a walk.  Once outside you perked right up and wanted to sniff everything and explore and didn't seem at all like the dog you were inside.  We were hooked. We agreed to take you home and took care of the necessary arrangements.  Your name was Champ because the Humane Society had picked you up on the side of the road, very injured in what they assumed was a fight with another dog.  We were told you were maybe two years old at most.  The Humane Society fixed you up and you healed like a, well, like a champ.  We decided to rename you Baxter. We brought you h...

I’m more than just a stay at home mom.  I read. (see, the stack has grown since last time I showed this picture) I watch television. I exercise. I floss every day.  I go out with girlfriends. I spend time with my husband. I pay attention to current events.  I enjoy cooking. I enjoy drinking wine. I enjoy cooking while drinking wine.  I love trivia games. And Boggle. I make sure most of the food we have in our house is healthy. I love music. I am silly. I am serious. I DON’T like to be scared (meaning that my husband really needs to let me know when he comes home unannounced in the middle of the day and just lets me come downstairs to find him standing there staring at me like a criminal because for a split second I was sure he had just broken in  and that is the ONLY reason I screamed bloody murder and about lost my lunch before realizing who it really was). I am anxious. I am focused. I like schedules and routines. ...

Except Death and Taxes and School Pick Up Problems

Dear you, Hi there! We haven't met so I thought I would introduce myself.  I am a mom of two, a fifth and a third grader, at the school our kids attend.  You might recognize my car, as you drive by it nearly every day when you pass me (and plenty other parents) 10 minutes before school gets out to park at the very front of the pick up line. In a spot that is not a spot. Genius!  I mean why should you get to school early like many of us other parents do and park appropriately in the pick up lane when you can just come nearly at the last minute, go around a line of 30 vehicles, and park in a spot that is not a spot? Why didn't I think of that? You probably have special circumstances.  I'm sure you think that NOBODY else in the pick up lane,  many of whom have been sitting there waiting for 30-45 minutes have ANYTHING better that they could be doing with their time. I especially loved the day that you were parked there and ran over to grab your child and...
