WARNING: Be very careful when cleaning up TOYS!!

Easton: "Uh oh, my mom is cleaning up my toys. She is going to find the chainsaw!!"

THE INNOCENT LOOKING CHAINSAW!

Turn it over and why wouldn't I have known that it was loaded with poop?? Seriously, what is Eastons obsession with making me clean up pooh? I knew something smelled, but never would I have imagined I'd find it HERE.

Bell Family said...: The best part about all the pooping in the house is it happens at YOUR house....the most sterile, clean, no dirt, no disease, highly dis-infected house. NOT ANYMORE!!; September 15, 2008 at 7:51 AM
Wendi said...: You are so positive about this.. ha ha! Best of luck on this adventure.; September 15, 2008 at 9:00 AM
Scha&Andi said...: Honestly, i can totally relate! Usually William goes in the garage and does it and i don't find it for days or he'll take his diaper off during his nap and smear it all over his crib and crib tent.

Ya I can totally relate. My little brother, Sean used to poop in those McDonald's treat or treating buckets and put it in his closet when he was little. crnfkkmq; September 15, 2008 at 2:55 PM

margo said...: I know-- once Mallory tried to hide hers under a book in her room. I'm so glad we are passed those days -- now she just pulls her pants down and pees anywhere outside -- especially outside of food tents!!! ha ha ha; September 15, 2008 at 4:00 PM
Natali Thompson said...: Oh gag! Are you trying to see how many pictures of pooh you can put on your blog in one year? I can honestly say, I never had situations like this-maybe the tub a couple of times! I love the orange baseball jersey's-where did you even get those? Hunting??; September 15, 2008 at 5:35 PM
Durrant said...: Okay so what is it with little boys and poop! I read your blog just shortly after my poop extravaganza! I have to say I really appreciate this post, it did help me feel a little better about the poopy highchair! These boys are too funny!; September 15, 2008 at 6:28 PM

From the mouths of "our babes":

*Our doorbell rang. Chance ran to get it. No one was there. He said, "oh darn,it must have been a knocker-ditcher." (Otherwise known as a doorbell ditcher.)

*Chance climbed in the back of the car this afternoon, and said "ewww mom, the back of your car smells gross...it smells like fries and poo all mixed together."

There was a little boy acting very naughty in Chances primary class...he turned and told the boy that he was an "ANGRY ELF." The teacher told me that it made her whole day and she nearly peed her pants laughing. (We were visiting at a different ward, which makes it even funnier because he didn't even know the boy.)

*Chance's kindergarten teacher's name is Mrs. Rasband, he came home and told Brandon that her name is Mrs. Wristband! Close enough

*As we were driving through the farmlands, Addie blurts out from the backseat, "it's cool how HAY grows, it just randomly pops up in perfect little blocks!" (She was DEAD serious)

*We came home from camping and Addie turns to me and says, "Mom, it feels so good to be home and walk on the grass and have a cup of milk!"

*We ate at a "Thai" restaurant tonight. Addie was so sick of peanuts on all of the food. She finally looked at me and said, "what the heck, do they have a peanut tree in that kitchen or what?"

*Chance asked me, "Mom, why Jesus make me so fast?" (Basically asking why he is such a fast runner)

*Chance was looking through the neighbors fence at their dog and he came running back across the street and said " oh sick, that dog just bless you'd all over my face!" Apparently, that means the dog sneezed on him!

*Chance calls "Walkie Talkies"... "Hickey Tickies"

*Hannah told me that we are going to give her "arthritis" because we are making her camp in a tent this year. (We sold our big fifth wheel last year.) Poor kids!

*We went thru the drive-up at Wendy's and they were out of Frosty's. As we pulled away, Chance murmurs to himself: "damn, damn, damn!" (I will take full responsibility for that one!) Needless to say, we had a little chat!

*Chance says that "chocolate milk" is his favorite taste!

*Chance was picking the seat of his pants today, and I said "what's wrong son, do you have a snuggy?" And he said, "no mom, I don't have a snuggly, my bums are just stuck together.

*Tonight at dinner, Addie told us that her favorite solid food is BUTTER and her favorite liquid food is SPRAY BUTTER!

*Chance told me today that his brain was making him scared to go to school. (He just kept holding his head in his hands)

*We had a "chick" die this weekend. Of course the kids made us do a burial. Apparently it freaked Chance out, and he wouldn't sleep in his bed because he just knew there were dead chicks in the sheets, and his feet could feel the feathers!

Easton "Such a Big Miracle, in such a Little Boy"

For those that don't know, our little boy nearly drowned in a bathtub accident when he was just 7 months old. I had run a bath for myself and left Easton (who could barely crawl) in his room on the floor. I ran out to the kitchen to clean up a glass my daughter had broken. When I returned to the bath... Easton had pulled himself into the bathroom and was floating face down in the water. He had his feet pajama's on which helped him slip over the side. He was under for about two - four minutes and it took four minutes of CPR from his daddy before he took his first breath. He was taken by ambulance to "Primary's" where he stayed in the ICU overnight. He had a full recovery. We are so, so lucky! He is ONE YEAR OLD now and we're so happy that our heavenly father decided that we could keep him!!! He brings so much SUNSHINE into our lives. "We love you Eastie". I put this on my blog for my own journal, but also for people to always be aware of your kids around water...they are capable of sooo much more than you may think!
