Just some pictures -

Posted by Heather Manning On April - 17 - 2009

Jordan had soccer last night and I snapped a few pictures of the youngest 2 while he was practicing and Kat was playing with her friend on the big playground.

Miss blue eyes, whose hair is growing longer, but not thicker.  LOL

Hmmm, there are other people around, dare I walk far enough away from mommy so that I could actually go down the slide?

Don’t let the fact that it LOOKS like an action shot, coming down a slide, fool you.  It was a bad shot from my camera, she just climbed up and sat on the end of the slide so no one else could go down.

Ok, one more pic because you’re awfully cute, then you have to move so other kids can go down.  I didn’t have time to put her hair in a pony before we left, hence the hair in the eyes.

funky lighting makes him look like he’s from the other world.  LOL

And a picture taken with it zoomed all the way out because I was all the way across the field, but there’s Jordan practicing.

I know I have another child, but she wouldn’t get in an area where I could see to take a picture.  I’d catch glimpses of her head to know she was a live with the other child and her mother.  LOL

Anyone watch Hell’s Kitchen last night?  I felt so bad for Robert.  *SPOILER ALERT* Skip to the next paragraph if you haven’t watched it yet.  I really liked him and he went to the hospital with heart problems and ended up leaving the show.  I wanted him or Danny to win, now it’s down to wanting Danny to win.  I really like him.

This morning was fun.  Jordan “forgot” he had homework last night, and I legitimately forgot to ask him with everything going on, soccer, trying to get dinner ready afterwards, etc etc.  So, he was up doing it this morning.  At 8:24 I looked up and said, get your butt out to the bus.  He runs and gets his coat, looks out and said, the bus is pulling away.  So, I loaded him in the car and figured on the way as I’m trying to help him do his homework still that it’s like  I don’t have one of those jobs in finance or something that has to do with math, seeing as simple 3rd grade math homework stumps me, I’d hate to live in the adult world of math.  I got A’s and B’s in everything in school, but failed algebra twice.  In my defense, I think it was the teacher.  LOL  I had a different teacher the 3rd time and got a B in it.

I’ve got to say thank you to Barb!  That Target GC she was giving away that I sent you over to check out?  Mr Radomizer drew my name.  How fun is that?  Thanks Barb!

That’s all from me today!  Have a wonderful day!

Do you ever wonder where phrases come from?

Posted by Heather Manning On April - 17 - 2009

I do.  I never tell me children that they are cruising for a bruising – though I do remember that being said to me when I was younger, but I think said parent was joking.  LOL  I do say, you’re cruiseing.  And my children are like, cruising for what mom?  And then you just don’t want to repeat the whole phrase in this era of it’s not cool to beat your children no matter how irritating they might be.  (Ok, really, I don’t want to beat my children, but I’ll settle for a cruise away from them.  LOL)

Here’s the definition of cruising for a bruising.

To say that someone is “cruising for a bruising” means that he is behaving or talking in an inflammatory or intensely irritating way that is liable to get him beaten up. Very similar phrases are “rooting for a booting” or “clammering for a hammering”.

That’s really not just nice.  Our parents were sadistic.

My parents leave to come home

Posted by Heather Manning On April - 17 - 2009

and I am so excited!  They went to Tennessee and used a week in the time share, not quite a free stay at hotel, but still a nice way to travel.  I’ve missed hanging with my mom a lot.  They also got to spend 3 nights at my aunt’s in Alabama and spent the day with my cousin’s family.  Kind of jealous because I haven’t seen them since my grandpa passed away, but happy that they got to spend time together! 

Can’t wait to see you though mom if you read this before you take off!

Find a creative way -

Posted by Heather Manning On April - 17 - 2009

to use the word moth traps in a sentence today.  Hmmmm.  Can you do it?  How about I don’t need any moth traps in my apartment unless one of my children leave the sliding glass door open on a hot summer night.  Then we’re chasing the huge boogers around the apartment.  Usually they are semi-slow and land on walls so we can smash them, but they make quite a mess when you do it.  A trap might be easier and cleaner. 

Now you do it, use moth traps in a sentence.  LOL

Ok, this is definitely TMI,

Posted by Heather Manning On April - 17 - 2009

but you guys know everything.  How do you get rid of blackheads.  No seriously, been having an issue since I had the baby.  There are like 4 on my face.  And foundation doesn’t cover them up that well.  Plus, it’s just not that pretty.

Remember those cysts on my eyes I told you about?  I was supposed to see the dermatologist yesterday to get them cut out, but the nurse that I called and I decided it might be traumatizing for Kat and Alyce to watch the actual procedure, so my appointment is now next Wednesday, Pato’s day off.  I can’t see myself holding a squirming baby very well while they are lancing something off my face right by my eye.  One jerk and that’s all she wrote.

Do you have a child

Posted by Heather Manning On April - 17 - 2009

who likes to play at the water faucet (not necessarily Danze faucets, any old faucet will do).  Alyce does.  If I can’t see her, I just have to listen, she’s usually standing on the toilet in Jordan’s bathroom, filling something with water to wash one of Kat’s babies.  Much to Kat’s dismay, because honestly, she didn’t want her babies washed.  Their hair is never the same when you get it wet.  Then someone has to go rescue both Alyce from falling off the wet toilet because she gets water every where, and Kat’s dolls from having their hair turn into a nasty rat’s nest that you’ll never get brushed out.

The adventures of 4 children.  That’s what I should call my blog.  LOL
