Pickle Sprinkles


Me: Good morning!
D: I just don't need to burn my eyes, Mom.

J: Stop talking me!!

On sprinkles....
D: The orange one tastes like Cheeto.

Me: How 'bout the red?
D: The red one tastes like spicy.
Me: How 'bout the purple?
D: It just tastes like sprinkle.
Me: What about the green one?
D: It tastes like pickle.
Me: Yuuuum. And what about the blue one?
D: It just tastes like sprinkle too.

Dad: D, did you give J that cheese?
D: Yes.
Dad: J-j, did you say thank you?
*a moment of silence*
D: J-j, say thank you me!


Me: You can watch some TV...
J: Or play. Don't screw around, only play with toys.

J: Mom, you have to hectorcize zombies!
Me: Hypnotize?
J: No, hectorcize.
Me: Exorcize?
J: NO, HECTORCIZE!

Me: What do you want on your burger?
J: Ketchup!
Me: Do you want bacon?
J: Yes!  
Me: Pickles?
J: Yes!
Me: Cheese?
J: Yes! 
Give him the burger.... and ~
J: I DON'T LIKE THIS BURGER!
Twins ate the bun and all the toppings, but not the burger patty itself.  LOL

D to Amanda: I will miss you at preschool.
J: Not me!  I won't miss anybody!
Gee thanks, J.



(5/3) Work and school day.  Dad met me at the gym with the littles after work, and took C to Science Night at his school.  C really got into bingo and a couple of the other games.  Goofy guy. They stopped for ice cream on the way home and brought some back for me.  💙


(5/4) May the 4th be with you!  J's Special Day was today, and it was also their Cinco de Mayo celebration at school.  J picked out patriotic cookies (wrong colors for the holiday, but whatevs) and fruit, and their school had chips, quesadilla, and a piñata.  The kids had a ball!  Nanan came over this afternoon to visit and D excitedly showed her all the paint samples for the new house.  Dad took us all out to dinner at IHOP where the boys ordered cupcake-batter pancakes.  Hence the sprinkle discussion above.


(5/5) Cinco de Mayo!  Work had a fun celebration which included sombreros, margaritas, and history of the battle. Dad ran out and got more margarita fixins after C got home from hockey, and we ordered taco pizza because hello? taco + pizza!


(5/6) I worked from home today, and Dad had the boys.  He went up and grabbed the teenager this evening and got caught up in the zoo that is northbound traffic.  Good grief.  He made us fancy burgers with bacon and all the fixings.  The bacon mysteriously kept disappearing every time I left the kitchen.  C had no idea how that was happening, LOL.


(5/7) We had the best day today!  We headed out to Meadowdale Park and hiked Lund's Gulch down to the beach.  It was a beautiful hike, and it was so awesome to have all the kiddos along.  The teenager even watched the kiddos tonight so Dad and I could go out to dinner when we got home. We hit Red Lobster for their shrimp trio goodness.  We were going to go to a movie too, but the showtimes were all so late, so we opted for renting one instead (Spectre ~ Bond, James Bond).  We kept Mother's Day low key, but Dad did spoil me with a necklace.  Thank you, sweetie!


(5/8) Lazy Sunday.  It was gray and drizzly, and I let the kids play video games until it was time to venture out for lunch.  We hit the grocery store and I let the kiddos choose what they wanted. We then went back to enjoy and hung out until it was time to return the teenager.  Then the boys and I went up to drop off flowers for Nanan and hit the park while we were up there.  It was gorgeous by the time we hit the Island, so it was perfect for it.  We got home in time for a quick dinner and baths before bed.

 
It's tradition to bring Mother's Cookies
on Mother's Day!
(5/9) Happy Monday!  Work, school, and hockey on the docket today.

 
C: Boys!  I beast mode!
