I missed the Royal Wedding!

I am so sad to say I missed watching the Royal Wedding. We watched a movie I am reviewing and stayed up too late and I fell asleep! I really wanted to see it live! My mom told me she watched Princess Diana get married when she was pregnant with me. I wanted to watch it with my son. I am searching for a way to watch a re-airing of it somewhere and I do not have cable tv! If you know of anywhere to see it please let me know.

Where is your Diaper!?!

Yesterday I was having a blast playing with my little guy. We were chasing each other from his room to the living room, playing with his drum (he head butts it to make it work!) and rolling the basketball back and forth. I was so happy! He is at the point where he is running to everything and has so much energy. He wants Mama to be his side kick as he plays and I adore every second of his attention.

We took a break to have some juice and he was standing by the couch leaning on it looking so cute when he had a concern look on his face and there was pee running down his leg and the whole front of his overalls were getting soaked! I found this to be very surprising since I had just changed his diaper. I thought for a moment to myself "Did I not put a diaper back on him!?" But I realized I am not going crazy over here but he had taken it off in his room when we were playing chase. I was relieved to see it clean and still closed on one side diaper on his bedroom floor. He has been doing that a lot lately, sneaking his diaper off and kicking it out the bottom of his pants of shorts. I was just glad it was only pee!

What do you do when your little one won't keep their diaper on?

You know your geting old when.....

I had a "I'm official an adult" moment on Easter! I used the phrase, "those darn teenagers" it made me laugh after I said it because I know it means I am getting old! We were having a picnic at the park for our Easter celebration. We laid out our blanket, got our picnic basket out, and got comfy. We started to notice a few teenagers with cardboard shields and swords walking in our direction. I was a bit puzzled as to what they were doing but figured they were teenagers who knows what they are up to. Slowly over the next 15 minutes more and more teenagers dressed in cardboard armor we setting up next to us on the grass field under beautiful oak trees. I told my husband I think there is going to be a battle of some sort, then the ammo arrived! There were about 30 or more teenagers gathered next to us when they all got excited at the huge crate full of eggs that a few teenagers were walking over to the group.

At that moment I declared we really need to move our picnic! We gather up all our stuff and headed to the other end of the park just in time. We looked over to where 5 minutes early we were relaxing and there was an all out battle! These teenagers were going wild having a egg fight! There were raw eggs flying through the air and splattering all over their cardboard armor. It was funny to see them having so much fun but my thoughts were, "so much food going to waste when there are hungry people", "what about the salmanola in raw eggs" and "oh their poor mothers who have to do their laundry". I knew at that moment I am official old and a party pooper! lol

The grassy field before we had to move!
