Break a leg!!

Not really though! Don't get all crazy and call CPS!!

The day has finally come. Another motherhood milestone to cross off the list! Today is Mason's very first....wait for it.....SCHOOL PLAY!! That's right ladies and gents, our little dude is making his theater debut. He's finally going to be able to showcase those acting chops! And I know I should be excited but I'm a little...well...nervous.

You see, Mason has the habit of saying and doing the most inappropriate things at the worst time. Like in the middle of a family dinner he decided to follow up someone's comment with a loud "THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID!!!" (that's my boy!! insert fist pump here!). Or at church when he decided to show me how he could fart with his armpits (which is actually impressive at such a young age!). Or at the drive-thru when he asked the cashier if he was chubby from eating too many french fries. Or at the market last night when he told the cashier he was going to stab him. You get the point.

So yeah, I'm a tad nervous. Here's hoping that Vet #1 sticks to the script!! But don't worry...I'm taking my camera along in the likely event that he doesn't. Note to self: crush up extra ritalin into Mason's cereal today.

{Take a hike R-Patz there's a new bad boy in town!!}

Either way, it should make for a fun day. Watch out world, today, a star is born!

Happy Friday!

SERIOUSLY!!!!!!!??????????

You have got to be kidding me.

My mom's dog just friggin URINATED all over my FRESHLY CLEANED couch!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

{say hello to the angel of DARKNESS!}

WHAT THE FREAK?!?!?!

That little pisser lifted his flippin hoof RIGHT NEXT to me and took a straight LEAK! Sweet mother of Abraham Lincoln I am losing my MIND! Who am I kidding...I lost that a long time ago. As for my couches, well, there's just no hope for them anymore.

Somebody pass me a Red Bull and OJ. I need a drink.

So. Hows your week?

5 minutes.......

Is five minutes ALONE too much to ask for?!

Apparently in this house hold it is. There's a lot I can do in 5 minutes. For example, I could switch over and fold laundry. Or I could take a shower and even SHAVE my legs, maybe an armpit or two if I'm lucky. I could read a chapter in my book. Heck, I could read a blog or two. I could friggin poop in PEACE!! That would be glorious!! So you see what I mean? I could really make a lot of use of five minutes.

However....there is also a lot my ritalin snorting crack-head off springs can do in 5 minutes too. They could empty every item of clothing from their dressers or from my bathroom.

{ May I interest you in some Qtips? Perhaps a band aid? }

They can go potty in their training toilet all by themselves and then BRING you the toilet to show you (leaving a trail behind them). They can clear out all of the food in the pantry.

{ Can we have spaghetti for dinner?? }

But I think perhaps the most impressive task they've undertaken is redecorating the living room.

One boy
One marker
One couch
Five minutes.....

{ This is just one cushion....now imagine this on the rest of the ENTIRE couch}

Yeaahhh....Boogie, or Boogaso as I now refer to him, took it upon himself to use the couch as a canvas while I took 5 MINUTES to myself to take a shower. Breathe in, breathe out. Note to self: Hairspray works WONDERS at getting out ink from upholstery.(But your house may reek like a giant bottle of aquanet for days) So I guess the real question shouldn't be 'Is 5 minutes alone too much to ask for?'......it should be....

Is 5 minutes alone even worth it??!!

{Don't ask my husband...he'll say yes...HA!}

ps...winners send me your info!!!!!

What can Brown do for you?

Isn't that the UPS slogan? Sampson should have been an UPS delivery man...

{..because he has a package for you. BWAH! }

This is what I love about living in CA...even my dogs work on their tans. Lazy furballs. Speaking of lazy....I need a nap. You would think that with Spring Break over, the House of Cline daycare closed, and Easter over that a girl could get a break around here. But noooooooo, because of course now Little Miss Presley is sick and she's taking her mama down with her. Booooo. Although I have to admit I love listening to people talk when they're stuffed up because they can't say their 'M's. I can't help but laugh every time the kids ask me for a cup of 'bilk' in their Darth Vader heavy breathing voice.

On a random note...this here is my baby brother, Junior. Doesn't he look like the dude from Prison Break? Wentworth Miller! Sorry for the crappy picture quality. My baby bro turned the big 1-8 last week and he's getting ready to go off to college! **tear** He's gonna be a heart breaker for sure...

If you need me I'll be huffing on Vic's and Pedialyte with the baby!

Happy Wednesday Folks!
