in no particular order
1. lice
2. candy corn
3. my dog's breath
4. unsightly chin hair
5. ingrown toenail infections (jack came up with that one.)
6. my husband being out of town all week
he gets back tonight and that makes me very, very happy. i miss him when he is gone. the kids miss him when he is gone. so do the dishes...

the recycling...

and one of the dogs. but we carry on as best we can. thankfully, it was red ribbon week at school which meant free pizza and pop, a cookie and ice cream for jack and em each day of the week. i call that dinner...

i folded a
little laundry while watching "the time traveler's wife" and "date night"...

jack was home sick. again. which means he missed one of only two parties they have at school each year.
again...

ugh. but emmie's was fun. as usual, i did the games...


sweet meghan (one of our students and a dear family friend) came to help me out...

lulu ate her weight in candy corn...

the kids liked my orange wig...

though it looked way better on lulu...

we also had a big event at our house. this is lulu's poopy in the potty...

only she didn't put it there. i did. after i found it on the floor of my bedroom...

note to self, don't wait too long to put a diaper on a baby after bathing her. ewww.
since i already posted those gross pictures, i might as well take it one step further and tell you that our recently inherited dog ate a poopy diaper while bill was gone...

{dear gunga,
is it too late to change my mind about this arrangement?
love, missy}
if you ever come to our home, please remember this: don't EVER let that dog lick your face.
and lastly, lulu yanked a key off my computer...

see, when bill is gone i lose all...

counting down the minutes, babe.

Missy. You posted a picture of your child's poop. On the internet. I have no words. Well, except these: I heart you!
Can't believe you posted poop. Gross, and I guess one of the reasons I keep reading. You're so real and so hilarious! I love your blog! :) On to something more important. I am in charge of kindergarten games for the upcoming fall party. What are your brillant ideas? Thanks! janellrink@gmail.com
too funny...that looks like our house but my hubby doesn't travel..ha. and our LULU pulled a key off too...i'm just not clever enough to make a post out of it :) so funny, kristi
lulu's pooo is on the internet! haaaaa hah ha ha ha! ok so remind me to tell you about the first time emory pooped on the floor. and did you clean just for me? b/c your house looked fantastic when i was there!
Ha! I loved the control key photo....not so much the poo one. :)
Anyway, I have a wonderful solution to what you don't like about #4. I bought one for that same reason.
Go to...www.groupon.com (Lincoln's groupon)
I believe it's this weekend's groupon special. I bought mine last night and it's still on today.
I love Groupon in sooo many ways!
LOL!
I really think in the orange wig you look even more like Katherine Keigl. You are WAY more fun as game mom than I was. I did NOT wear an orange wig...but I love it!
Glad Bill is back. I think I'd be a bit fearful to see photos from week 2 if Bill was gone for 2 weeks! :)
This post is hilarious!! Lovin' all the laundry...now I don't feel so bad. :)
NOw I dont feel too bad about my washing (laundry) all over the place!
And thats the first thing I do after I take Imaan out of the bath & dried her off - put the diaper on!
HAHAHAHA
do you think there is any significance to the fact that it was the "control" key she pulled off? i'm just sayin
giggling. [with you, i hope.]
i lose it a little when matt's gone, too.
I love your blog. Have I told you that before? I read it religiously.
I just wanted to tell you how much I love the poop pics. I mean, I don't love looking at them - but I love that you lived the same experience as me. Except that Eli ate Tallulah's poop. Tallulah is our dog. A few weeks later, I too had waited too long after bath to diaper my sweet boy and he pooped on the living room floor. When I ran in the bathroom to grab toilet paper to clean it up, I came back to find Tallulah sitting beside it. Licking her lips. Eli eats Tallulah's. Tallulah eats Eli's.
So, you probably shouldn't let Tallulah lick you. Or Eli kiss you.
Gross.
There you have it.
Hilarious! I am laughing so hard right now. I found you from Our Front Door's guest post. My dog lives for poopy diapers and my daughter also thinks nothing of pooping on my floor.
This is a perfectly brilliant post. I love it.
And I have posted poop pics too. And told many poop stories. I am so very sorry it was in your floor though!! I think I am glad that I don't have dogs. Or anymore babies. Although I wouldn't put it past Eliana to do something weird with her poop, and my son definitely has (I will refrain from sharing his poo stories). Poop trials. It's one of the many things us moms have in common.
