Un-Interuppted

This Little Miss decided to sleep from 10:30 P.M. until 8 A.M..
And this Little Dude decided he would cooperate and sleep from 9:30 P.M. until 7:50 A.M.
which means that this Mr. and Mrs. had 9 1/2 hours of uninterrupted sleep! We serve a gracious God! And I say that in ALL seriousness.

Now on to some funnies.

Yesterday, Dalen was taken to the McDonald's in town that has an indoor AMAZING playground. We went other moms and their kiddos. He played from 10-12 and then left with Aunt Mary & Livi so we could follow them to another outdoor playground! Wow, did he ever expend some energy!

Of course, as we were leaving he began his typical meltdown. The conversation went a little like this...

Me: Time to go home buddy!
Dalen: Why?!
Me: Because it's just time and DON'T run from me!
Dalen: I don't wanna go home!
Me: I know! But we HAVE to!
Dalen: Why?!
Me: BECAUSE THAT'S WHERE WE LIVE!!!!

We get in the car and start driving.

Dalen: I don't wanna go home!
Me: Sorry, we have to!
Dalen: WHY?!
Me: Because that's where we live!
Dalen: I wanna live somewhere else, Mom!
Me: Oh really? Like where?
Dalen: The park!
Me: (as sarcastic as I could say it) Oh yeah that would be great Dalen because the park doesn't have water, showers, tv, beds or snacks!
Dalen: Oh! Oh! Mommy, I live at home! Yeah, I live at home!

Yeah that was a classic moment that let him know home wasn't as bad as he thought. I don't think he will be much of the camping type. lol

This morning I got Dalen ready for school and handed him his pull up to put on. He looked at it very closely because there is a special car on the side that goes in the front. He began putting it on and singing, "Car in the front, Car in the front, Lookin' like a fool with a car in the front!" He sang this in the tune of Pants On The Ground. I absolutely lost it.

Last night I was trying to get Dalen to say really hard words like rhinoceros (yeah, spell check totally got me on that one!), hippopotamus (and that one), Massachusetts (and pretty pathetic but on that one too, lol). I must say, he said all of them pretty close to how they were to be pronounced UNTIL I said, "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious". He began laughing so hard and I said, "Come on! Try it!" He then says, "Super, super, call me from the ocean!"

If these stories don't have you convinced motherhood is so fun I don't know what will.
