  • Stinky Poo…….

    My Grandson, Alex, just filled his diaper with Toxic Waste!  At least, that is what it smells like since Heather, Tom, Hannah, and Jessie are out in the livingroom making gagging sounds.  Now, there is sounds of bargaining among them trying to convince someone to open that diaper so that Alex can have a diaper change.  I wonder who will be the lucky victim?  Tom got outvoted I guess since he is the one who gets the priviledge of surviving yet another one of Alex’s toxic presents.  I will give the guy his due since I witnessed Tom’s first toxic diaper change while Tom was babysitting Alex last week.  He got the diaper changed even though he gagged about 8 times in his performance of the task.  Me…….I was laughing so hard that tears came into my eyes.  It was just too funny since I am a veteran of many, many diaper changes in all their different varieties.  I am surprised that Tom has not learned to disappear at first whiff.


    Edit:  I wrapped the last present…..unless there is one hiding from me or I have forgotten one.  Still, at this moment, all presents are wrapped and hopefully I will get to sleep in my bed tonight instead of the usual me trying to stretch the scotch tape or manufacture some additional wrapping paper out of paperbags.  I am now doing the do ahead dishes for tomorrow’s family dinner so that I can reduce the rush since this is going to be the first year that my Husband and I will be traveling on Christmas morning to watch grandchildren open presents at their homes and then the rush back to our home to open our own presents and watching Alex and our children open their presents.  It is going to be a full day tomorrow and I am so looking forward to all the activity.

  • Enjoy your Holiday!! 

  • You are far ahead of me! I’ve miles of tape and paper to fight with late tonight, not to mention the ‘made in china’ directions to decipher! My kids span from 22 yrs old to 23 months, my grand daughter is 3! For me it HAS to wait until tonight! I am lucky to roll into bed by 3am and the first kids are up by 7. Its tradition! ::laughs:: At least my turkey is thawed and I bought this cool electric roaster this year so there is oodles more room in my oven. Guess thats as far ahead as I am this year! Oh well, maybe Martha Stewart will drop by and give me some really slick pointers…. ah, I don’t think so! I’ve this little sign above my kitchen sink that says, ‘this ain’t home sweet home… adjust’ for a reason!

    (I can relate, toxic diapers! I’m glad that my last one will be toilet trained soon!)

    You have yourself a very Merry Christmas, stay safe traveling. Happy New Year, may it bring all the best for you and your’s.
