Nutricious, I Think Not

We've had a fabulous weekend, thankyouverymuch. I know you were wondering ;) It's been a great family weekend.

Last night we headed back to the Chldren's Consignment sale to pick up the large items that I purchased yesterday morning{which was a lightweight stroller and ride on toy for Care Bear's birthday} I like those kind of nights. Husband comes home, everybody scrambles to get cleaned up and dressed nicely to head out, grab something to eat on the way, then arrive and have a good time! It was a good time to be had, in fact. There was a line of about 300 people out the door waiting for it to reopen at 7:00pm. Cuh-raziness! It was insanely jam packed with people..err savages{again} trying to find the best bargain. I cautiously looked for a few more items as C chased the wild thangs{hehe, poor guy!} I'll blog about my finds in a later post..so proud btw!

Then today, we spent the majority of the day cleaning our house. I hate the process, but I love the outcome! Nothing better than a clean house..ahh so relaxing! After it was finished, C and I cooked supper together as the girls played. We had fried catfish and goulash{sweet potatos, idaho potatos, cabbage, onions, garlic, carrots cooked in ollive oil in an iron skillet} Yum-O! Even Miss Priss made a happy plate!! =) We layed around for a little while, then decided to go rent a movie and get ice cream from Sonic.

{She will not leave a Bow in when we're at home, but has to have one when we leave the house}

There were no good movies by the way! We finally decided on "I Love You Man" with Paul Rudd and Jason {something?.. the guy from How I Met Your Mother} and Miss Priss got Dora and the Three Little Pigs. C and Miss Priss got ice cream and I got a regular 'ol Coke! Mmm..{I may add a little rum after the kiddos go to bed..shh!} We went walking around our block when we got home. I pushed Care Bear in our new stroller and Miss Priss pushed her babydoll in her stroller. The weather was so nice and cool. I'm loving it!

I came in to make Bear a bottle and turned my back for a minute. When I turned around, she was handing me something hot pink and it was coming from her mouth as well. I ran over to her and realized it was Playdough!! She had eaten a big chunk of it. *OMG!* I freaked out for a minute, ran outside to tell C and he informed me that is mostly made of Wheat, Salt, and Food Coloring. I truly hope that is true! She was very excited about eating it. Apparentley, it tasted absoloutley appetizing, but nutricious for her..I think not!

Not a Motorcycle

It's Wednesday, which means Mother's Day Out again, which means we were late..again!

Miss Priss had a meltdown this morning because she didn't want to go to school. She wanted to go to my grandma's house instead. I told her that Care Bear and I were not doing anything fun and that she would have a better day at school rather than sat here with us. She finally agreed and let me dress her and fix her hair. {I've learned that if I just sit down calmly and explain things to her, she accepts them much easier.}

Once we got her to school, I realized the Director wasn't there so I still have not paid September's tuition..eek! Ah well, they don't mind or they'd be chasing me down for it.

Care Bear and I headed home because every morning after we drop Miss Priss off, she takes a nap. I get her out of the carseat and dig in my purse for my keys. {i'm never successful one handed} I have to shift her around so that I can dig with two hands and that consists of me leaning her against the door. During all of this, I hear a funny sound. I turned around to see if it was a motorcycle or something coming down our street, but nope, nothing was there. The entire time i'm looking backward, Care Bear is looking down at my purse and grabbing for it. I was like "What is she doing?" then I realized the noise was not coming from a motorcycle, but from my purse! It was my massive can of hair spray!!

I was leaned up against it at just the right angle and it sprayed all over everything in my bag! My new 'Gucci' sunglasses{which, thankfully, happened to be in their cloth case..that got soaked} my phone, my lipgloss bag, my wallet, calculator... FAB-u-lous!
