Happy Hearts


J: Mom, you need to carry me up!

Bieber comes on ~
D: Mom, I hate this music!
Pet Shop Boys come on ~
D: Dad, I told Mom I love this music!

Me: Okie dokie.
D: But I don't want pokies!

C: There's a truck with lots of daddy beer! (Pointing at a Miller lite truck)
Dad: I drink way better beer than that. 
C: Yeah I guess that stuff's for really dumb people then.

Teacher: What do you call your mom?
J: Mom.
Teacher: What do you call your dad?
J: Geoffrey.

J: I thirsty!
Me: Here's your water.
J: No, I not thirsty for that!  I thirsty for THAT!  (pointing to my milkshake)

Me: Owww!
J: Sorry, Mom. I give you hugs, kisses, or chop it off?


(2/9) Work day for Dad and me.  I hit a class after work, so completely missed the little guys tonight. I guess D was full of it today.  He's been a real pistol lately.


(2/10) Work day for Dad, and my day to work in the twins' preschool.  They had their Valentine's party today, and I brought them home completely wired for sound. J decided to decorate me while I watched a movie that I had put on hoping it would calm them down.  Ha.  Nanan came to visit this afternoon when her plans fell through.  It was nice to see her!


(2/11) Work day for me, and Dad had the boys.  They ran the truck in for an alignment and got a rental minivan, which D was totally stoked about.  He kept asking me to come out and "feel the new van!"  LOL.  Dad and the twins stopped by Spuds and visited me at work today.  Lunch was delicious!  I took a few hours off at the end of the day in order to go fulfill my childcare requirement for the twins' preschool.  I brought them to add the chaos too.  Once I got them home, it was time for bed.  Shew.


(2/12) Work day for me, and Dad had the boys.  He hauled the crew to the doctor this morning because C's cough is just not getting better. Not much to do about it, it's just what the flu strain does this year. They did bring me some lovely flowers and Oreos back from their outings. I gave them their Valentine's early too, since C is going to spend the weekend with Nanan.


(2/13) Dad spoiled us with donuts this morning from Frost. J predictably ate the frosting off his and declared he was done.  D helped him finish the frosting, and also left the donut portion. I don't understand.  Our plan was to have Nanan come stay with the boys and go out for dinner by ourselves tonight, but alas she wasn't feeling well, so we hauled the whole crew to Anthony's and had a romantic dinner together.  We ordered some calamari, and it was a huge hit with the boys. Particularly C!


(2/14) Happy Valentine's Day!  I was home with the boys today and we did nothing - like hang out in our jammies kind of nothing. All day.  And it was glorious.  Once Dad got home from work, he fixed us up a fancy steak dinner.  We fed the littles tortellini, so they would actually eat, and then spent a romantic evening in watching The Walking Dead.


(2/15) Happy President's Day!  It poured pretty much all day, so we stayed indoors for the holiday.  I took the kiddos to the gym in the morning, and then my wildlings tore up the house in between viewings of Inside Out and Mickey Mouse Club.  C had hockey this evening, and I may have put the twins to bed a half hour early because they can't tell time accurately yet.


(2/16) Work day for Dad and me.  The kids are off on mid-winter break.  Lucky ducks!  The twins were just bananas today so I suggested a nap.  They both conked out immediately.  Subsequently, they were still up talking late tonight.  Ah well.


(2/17) Work day for Dad and school for C. The twins are on break from school, but us parents (me) got to go in and clean.  After my shift, we ran some errands and then came home for lunch.  Then there was playdough and Paw Patrol for the afternoon until C and Dad came home.


(2/18) Work day for me, and Dad has the kiddos. Off we go!
