Connors Invention

Connor created a system to water his plant. As you can see it involves my fridge, 2 bar stools, blocking the freezer and access to my kitchen from one side, so it may not last long, so I am immortalizing it by video and blog. The plant does not lack from water, but it defiantly needs a bigger pot, even I knew that without my plant classes in college. Thanks Dad for my college classes of course! I'm not sure I enjoy hearing just how young my voice sounds on the video, still don't think thats a reason for me to have been given a kids menu...

Lost teeth and Murphys Law

Another last for me!! My baby girl lost her first tooth! She wiggled it for days and days and finally pulled it out! Of course it was at 10 pm meaning she was once again to excited to sleep! I've told my kids about Murphy's laws, one being a child loses a tooth late at night and so won't go to sleep, or Connor and AJ getting sick the day before school starts after a long holiday, all of these are Murphy's law. Of course Brig showed the biggest evidence of Murphy's law by breaking his arm the day before going back to school, that may be a bit extreme. But he will learn to fake ear infection or stomach aches soon enough! AJ has something like a bladder infection and I admit I laughed as hard as he did when he had to tell the Dr that his "pepsicles" hurt. It was a funny moment and AJ's laughter is the most infectious of all my kids.
