The good, the bad, and the ugly (or icky, messy, making more work for me cuz I have to clean it up).

The Good
We finished our table (I know good huh, I didn't get to those curtains yet though).  It used to be blue and now it's black.  Jason probably did more of the work than me =).  Love you J. 

The Bad
I have a sinus infection.  BUMMER!!!

The Ugly
I put Jonah's diapers in the garage (because I am lazy) and then when I get around to it I move them to the garbage.  This is not the first time this has happened...

Yep, I ran over it.  I hate cleaning up the same icky mess twice!  At least this time it was only #1.

Also
Jonah is getting so curious about stuff (that's my nice way of saying HE IS GETTING INTO EVERYTHING!!).  He dumped out a whole bottle of shampoo in the tub this morning and I was even in the same room and didn't notice till it was too late.  Once he was out and dressed he went into the other bathroom and got the pump soap and made me bubbles EVERYWHERE he was so proud of himself.  Then I took him to do book room at the school and he was throwing books off the shelves and smashing boxes.  Finally, the girl I was working with told me to just go ahead and go and that she'd finish it.  She said he must be so hungry for lunch.  Ya, I wish it was that easy cuz I had just fed that kid a hot dog and 8oz. of milk before we came. 

Then Yesterday
That sweet child of mine (the one I was referring to before) had a stain on his shirt.  I thought he had spilled some milk on it so I went to wipe it off and it was slimy.  Hello, VASELINE!  Luckily it wasn't on the walls just all over Jonah.  Then while we were waiting for my prescription at the store Jonah would not stop screaming.  As one lady walked past him she told him SHHH.  I laughed, like I hadn't tried that one already!

Wow - good luck! There's just not really anything you can say to make that situation better.

You gotta love kids! Good thing they are so extremely cute! I am loving your table! We really should have a play day or lunch sometime. I work Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays so Tuesdays or Thursdays are best for me. What are your days like? call me 358-2394

Your table looks great! Jonah sure keeps your life interesting. Then again both your boys are good at keeping you on your toes and entertained. Don'tcha love it when people in the store try to parent your child for you. Ellie was throwing a fit a few weeks ago because I wouldn't buy her some candy and some lady passing us told me that I needed to fix the buckle strap she was sitting against because she thought it was really hurting her (and she gave me a look like I was the meanest mom). I moved the buckle and said thanks but that's not the problem so back off and yes I am a decent parent and I don't abuse my child! Okay so the last part was in my head but I gave her a look that hopefully conveyed the message.

Oh the table looks great!! And sweet little Jacey did the same thing with not 1 but 2 shampoo bottles a few weeks ago, but he may of had some help from his sister!

your table looks so cute! I'll take Jonah getting in to things and you can have Caitlin. She's our grumpy girl and I don't think I can put up with her much longer. Trade??

Every time I think I can't wait to have kids, I hear some great stories and they work as birth control:) Thanks for helping me with my patience.

Your post makes me laugh because I know we can all relate to that. Just as I think we are slowly understanding things with one, I know that the other won't be far behind. Gotta love it, huh?

Love the table. It looks great! I think your Jonah and my Hannah may be plotting against us in nursery or something. Hannah acts just like that!
