Wordless Wednesday – Beeper? 7

Posted on March 17, 2010 by Lisa

Where I live, kindergarten is only half day so I’m on a search for a school that has a full day kindergarten for my five year old.  I received applications for some private schools and a couple of Catholic and Christian schools.  On one of the applications, I could not believe what I saw.  I have not seen this option on an application in YEARS so I thought it would be PERFECT for a Wordless Wednesday.

Do you think this application needs a revision? lol

:) Happy St. Patrick’s Day all.  Today EVERYONE is Irish! LOL

Enjoy your day!

Wordless Wednesday | The Way I Feel 6

Posted on February 24, 2010 by Lisa

Since February 2, my email subscription updates have not been working.  No one is getting my updates and it has got me sad/disappointed/aggrevated.  So, this is the way I’ve been feeling since then. I still can’t get it to work but hopefully someone sweet will be willing to help me ;) Enjoy!

Unique Conversations With My 4 Year Old 6

Posted on January 10, 2010 by Lisa

My four year old and I have lots of conversations in the car.  Some conversations make me laugh and some make me wonder, “where does  she hear this stuff from”.  Anyway, they’re all so cute because it lets me me know what she’s thinking.

Here are two small conversations I just had to share with everyone.  It made me laugh out loud because she’ll come out and just say some random things.

4 y.o.  – Mama, that’s a hospital truck, right?

Me – Hospital truck? (looking around really quickly while I drive) Oh yea, that is actually an ambulance baby (yes, I still call her baby).

4 y.o. – What is that for?

Me – It’s how they take sick or hurt people to the hospital.

4 y.o. – And dead people too, right mama?

OMG! I had no idea she would say something like that.  So I had to say,

Me – Yes, and dead people too.

Immediately I changed the subject because I knew the conversation would go somewhere else along those same lines.  I was not ready for that!

Another funny conversation happened while driving home from picking her up from school one day.  She said she was hungry so she asked for lunch and said she wanted pizza.  So I told her that right before we go home, that we’ll get pizza.  This is the conversation that we had in the car:

4 y.o. – Mama, I’m hungry, can we have pizza for lunch?

Me – That sounds like a good idea. Right before we get home, we’ll get it.

4 y.o. – But I don’t want pizza at home (she meant she didn’t want Ellio’s pizza).  I want triangle pizza from the pizza place.

Me – Oh, excuse me missy (saying it with a laugh).  Ok, then, we’ll go to the pizzeria and get you triangle pizza.

4 y.o. – YAY!!! I love triangle pizza mama.

I had no idea a 4 year old would know how to distinguish between frozen pizza and “pizzeria” pizza.  C’mon, at her age, a pizza is a pizza…right?

It’s true, kids say the darnest things.

Do you have some wacky conversations you’d like to share? I would love to hear them!!

Happy Sunday!

Ever heard of the Wedding Fairy? 6

Posted on May 27, 2009 by Lisa

I was sent an email containing the riddle below.  It’s so true and funny at the same time.

Enjoy!

WEDDING FAIRY

A married couple in their early 60 ‘ s were celebrating their 40th Wedding Anniversary in a quiet, romantic little restaurant….

Suddenly, a tiny yet beautiful fairy appeared on their table. She said, “For being such an exemplary married couple and for being loving to each other for all this time, I will grant you each a wish.”
The wife answered, “Oh, I want to travel around the world with my darling husband.” The fairy waved her magic wand and – poof!
- two tickets for the Queen Mary II appeared in her hands.

The husband thought for a moment: “Well, this is all very romantic, but an opportunity like this will never come again. I’m sorry my love, but my wish is to have a wife 30 years younger than I.” The wife, and the fairy, were deeply disappointed, but a wish is a wish.

So the fairy waved her magic wand and poof!….the husband became 93 years old. The moral of this story: Men who are ungrateful bastards should remember fairies are Female…..

Ready for a laugh? 5

My husband is addicted to watching Jerry Springer.  Everyone knows that crazy, wild show, right? Well,  since he is not here during the day, he records the show so he can watch it at night.  He usually watches it when the kids are in bed and I’m on the computer because sometimes those people on that show are just plain dumb, I can’t bear to watch it.  Other times, I can’t help but watch it because it is so damn interesting and entertaining too.

This particular episode had us both laughing so hard.  I knew something was going to erupt when I saw her face.

Men, this will happen to you if you are caught cheating!!! LOL!

There’s alway a funny kid’s moment at my house! 9

Posted on April 21, 2009 by Lisa

img_2745My four year old daughter LOVES to dress herself. She dresses and undresses herself all the time. If I try to help her, she gets upset.  So I leave her alone. She is a very independent girl when it comes to that.

So one day, after running a whole lot of errands, she mentioned to me that she was getting tired and asked if she could put on her pajamas. I was in the middle of cooking dinner so I told her she knew where her pajamas were and that she can go to her room and change.

She comes out of her room and something looks wrong. I looked at her and said: “Vanessa, where did you get those pajamas from”? She looks down at them and says, “I didn’t get them from my hamper Mommy”.

My son and I laughed so hard because we knew exactly what she meant.  I asked her why did she take her pj’s from the hamper.

She looked at me with a surprised face (like I wouldn’t find out) and said “But Mommy, I wanted to wear my favorite pajamas, the ones in my draws are not my favorite”!

Needless to say, she won.

She ended up wearing her “hampered” pj’s to bed.

I’m telling you, there’s never a dull moment at our house!

Note: They weren’t really dirty, she only wore it once after her bath.
