My Happy Place!!!




THIS is my happy place today.

I'll admit I hate laundry. Well, I hate folding and putting it away, that is. The only thing worse, in my opinion, is cleaning my kids' bathroom. I will also admit that I OFTEN have a basket/entire bed covered with clean laundry. A typical response when asked where a particular item of clothing is is usually "check the clean laundry pile."

Today, Blythe was looking for something and asked where the clean laundry was. I was oh, so proud to say folded/hung up and put away!! This, however, really annoyed her since she had already checked the closet. Even an eye roll and stomping down the stairs couldn't ruin my laundry high today! :-)

You're breakin' my heart

Hayden's new saying is "you breakin' my heart"
Perhaps it's from HSM3 being played on DVR a few too many times during 2 days of rain.
The conversation usually goes something like this:

Hayden- Mom! Oyi(Oli) breakin' my heart.
Me- Why?
H- A Tuz (he means because)
Me- Because why?
His response is usually followed by any number of reasons like Oliver (or anyone else) not doing something he wants.

Last night I tried using "breakin' my heart" on him when he wouldn't go pee before bed.
Hayden- NOOO!!!!
Me- Hayden, you breakin' my heart!
Hayden- No, I not!!
Me- Why not?
Hayden- Tuz (meaning cause) You no have one!!

Obviously Jay found this quite a bit funnier than I did.
