Fart Dip

Yuck - - just the name of this post grosses me out. However, my two BOYS think it's hilarious. It's actually called Noise Putty & it's like floam-green slime-jelly-putty in a jar.  My mom gave it to them as part of their valentine's gifts! So you keep sticking your fingers in there & it makes sick noises.  Noises that I have no desire to hear from a jar or elsewhere...ever! 
If you know me at all, you know that I can't stand the indecency of "passing gas"...sick.  See, every time I even type it I just about have to follow it with my opinion.  

Anyways, because my cute adorable fun-loving children think it's funny....so do I.  At the funniest point in play with "Fart Dip" (which is the name Chase came up with by the way) - - Chase was telling Jordan that he has a bigger "wein*#" than him.  I wasn't paying attention, but finally "heard" it about 10 seconds later & told Chase that was inappropriate talk & that we don't use that word or make reference to our private parts.  He proceded to pull the Fart Dip out of the front of his pants....AHA....that's what he meant when he said his was bigger!!! He had it stuffed down his pants! He continued to pull out his green stuff with somewhat of a struggle and at one point had it stuck half-in-half-out....YUCK! My mom & I were cracking up of course & so was Jordan! Hilariously laughing at Chase's antics - - as usual ; )

The mommy guilties...

So today Chase is sick with a 100-101, sometimes 102, fever...after both kids have at some point complained of a sore throat.  Jordan's was Friday/Saturday...Chase finally came up with it Monday night & now all day today. The "guilties" come into play when I have a really productive morning - because one kids is down for the count & doesn't need much attention other than to check his temperature, give meds, push fluids, etc.  But then I decide that I'm neglecting him, so I stop everything to just sit & cuddle him under a blankie.  We sat in a recliner together, shut off the TV & he napped while I sat there staring at him or browsing the internet.  Therein lies another form of guilt.  That I was being lazy & not getting anything done but surfing the 'net!!! Oh well, got to cuddle my babe.  And I guess I spent 1/2 of my day doing some of each - - a little housework, a little cuddling ; ) 
I've attempted to post some pics of the kids today - - Chase sick, Jordan on his beloved iPod (that Braden handed down to him, so it's automatically "COOL", and not to worry critics, I monitor his ipod time to it's not excessive ; )

Here we are...

I'm joining the blogging world...never mind, no I'm not. I'm not joining anything and I know nothing about blogging.  However, I will use this blog to share our lives with friends and family. Perhaps this will create a chronicle of sorts of our lives.  It is my intent to share funny stories, and perhaps the sad ones too.  
I am a wife and stay at home mother of 3 children.  Two of our children are boys who are with me most of every day. Our third is a baby girl who we lost shortly after birth. She too is with us every day...surely watching over us, wishing she could come play with her big brothers.  
I hope I can keep up with this blog...as a SAHM (who also works part-time outside the home), we are very busy & I am generally forgetful!
