Just so you know, I'm failing and failing miserably at my FJ1W goal. I've been screaming my head off all week. This one is going to have to be a long term goal, accomplished with tiny baby steps.

If I hear Cameron ask me one more time what the plan is for Disneyland, I just might go insane. I love the boy, but oh.my.hell. Enough is enough. I know he's excited and all, but, well you would just have to be around him to know what I'm talking about. He takes nagging to a whole new level.

Yesterday, I was shopping with Avery and Peyton. We were browsing in the little boys clothing section. On older woman walked up to me and asked me if I could tell her what size an outfit was. She was having trouble seeing it on the tag. I told her and she then asked the price as well. I found it and told her. She thanked me and we started to walk away. As we were walking I started experiencing a feeling of dread. I just knew Avery was going to say something. I tried to walk away quickly so that whatever she said wouldn't be heard. She was too fast. She said in a snotty, I know everything kind of voice, "hmmmm....it looks like she can't read very well." I reached over and clapped my hand over her mouth as she was saying "well". I shook my head vigorously to try and get her to stop. I removed my hand and she said it again and so I covered her mouth again. All the while I was still trying to walk away. I took my hand away and she said it again. I covered her mouth again and when we were finally far enough away, I took it off. She then yelled, "WHY DO YOU KEEP COVERING MY MOUTH!? I JUST WANTED TO SAY THAT SHE CAN'T READ VERY WELL!" I told her that the problem was she couldn't see very well, not that she couldn't read. I told her that what she had just done was very rude. Especially since she said it loud enough for the whole world to hear. She just said, "humph" and shrugged her shoulders. Yes, it was nice and embarrassing and she was a huge brat. We've been talking a lot about manners since.

I love the recipes I've received. It's been so helpful. Please keep them coming.
What's on the menu today: we're having a make your own pizza party with homemade Garlic Bread sticks. I'm using the same recipe for the pizza dough as the bread sticks. I think we're going to go with easy pepperoni as topping.

It reminds me of the time that I took the kids to the dollar store becuase Grandma had given each one a dollar. We got to the register and Z paid for his. Then it was H's turn. She handed the lady her money, looked at me and said, "Mom, why is the lady taking my money so ugly?" Yup--I dided of embarassment. She obviously heard it as did the other 10 people in line. I practically ran out of there after apologizing to her.
That is supposed to day died not dided. UGH!!
Hopefully she couldn't hear either and didn't hear her!
haha Jillene.
And when are you guys going to Disneyland??? How did I miss this?
I know what you mean about the FJ1W goal. Since my kids are sick, does that mean I don't have to clean my bathrooms anymore???
Oh the things kids say! Our neighborhood used to be predominantly caucasion (we have lots of ethnicity now). One day when Ethan was little he saw an African American man walking down the street and asked why the man had "chocolate" skin. Luckily he didn't hear!
