what i never thought i would ever say...

things like; get that snail out of your mouth
and we don't poop in the shoe basket, we poop on the potty
are things i never dreamed i would ever possibly have any reason to say whatsoever

however, i am a mother, and as mothers we are blessed with the onslaught of new, strange, different, and innocent activities of our extremely curious tiny humans. sometimes it's hard not to laugh!

other things you might hear me say if you're within earshot is:
please don't torture your stuffed animals by suffocating them in the cooler.
no pointing at the lady with 89 body piercings and 65 tattoos, just pray for her.
please pet the cat instead of carrying her by her hind legs,
and no she doesn't like dress up (poor cat)
where did you put your waffle?
no, i'm sorry, we can't live in the cave with the bear at the zoo.
please put your clothes back on.
get your hand out of there.
no running down the hall with a ruler in your mouth.
why is there a waffle in your toy box?
please don't put sand in their dog's rear!

who are you?
where did you come from?

*sigh* my sweet curious little babies, i love you.

have you been surprised as a mother at some of the things you have to say?

have a beautiful day :)

xoxo,

what i love wednesday {No. 22}

for the summer having fun with the kiddos is at the top of my list.
trying to make sure we enjoy the short 10 weeks as much as possible,
relishing every precious day down to the last sunset.

some fun things we want to do are...

what i love wednesday!

lemonade stands
popscicles
souvenir jars
beach days
campfires

what are you loving this week?

can't wait to see!

xoxo,
