I suck...and NOT in that way

I just read The Dad's blog and I suck. I TOTALLY forgot him when ordering pizza tonight. I feel so bad. I guess he could have ordered it himself though right?

I think I finally slept last night, at least I was able to wake up this morning and not immediately need a nap. Maybe I actually NEED to drink 2 Diet Cokes right before bed? The Baby was up before 10 again. I got him back to sleep just in time for Princess Spazzy to wake up and demand her pancakes. So we all trotted off to the kitchen and made oatmeal (The Baby), pancakes (Princess Spazzy) and waffles (me) and then we did something we have never done before. We ate breakfast at the table. HOLY SHIT....I think I just heard the princess pee on the bathroom floor. She just came up here (she was in the basement with her brother) in a snow suit asking if she could pee. I told her to get it off and get in the bathroom. At least she made it to the bathroom, right. Oh yeah, I just asked her..."There is a tow-yul its ok" UGH...Where was I . Oh we ate breakfast at the table today. I think we should pr'y do that everyday. I went through a bag of garbage, from when Number One cleaned out the van, looking for my license, while Princess Spazzy took 400 years to eat her cancakes. I didn't find my license. I think I am going to have to cave and go get a new one. BARF After breakfast we came back to the bedroom and played, watched a little TV and took some pictures, some of us took more than others. :-)

The Dad came home from work early today. I had big plans....we would leave as soon as he got home and go shopping without the other kids. It would be great. It would be peaceful. It...wasn't gonna happen. The Dad had stopped at Walmart and got a chicken and some chips and brought it all in the bedroom for us to eat. I guess he didn't get the memo that we weren't eating in bed anymore. Princess Spazzy ate her weight in chips and The Baby and I had some chicken. Then Princess and I decided to get the mail. She beat me back to the house and started ringing the doorbell like a madwoman. The Dad came to the door to see what was up. He left The Baby on the bed. I nearly had a heart attack when I saw him at the door sans baby. He ran back to the bed and I heard him say "oh no, you can't do that" or something like that. The Baby had rolled his little buns over to the BAG OF CHIPS and had two fistfuls of them. Thank God he hasn't really figured out how to get things out of his little fists. We sat on the bed debating whether I should take The Princess and The Baby shopping or if we should wait until the boys got home and everyone could go shopping. Princess Spazzy was watching her new favorite show "Maggie and the Rowshus Beef" (Maggie and the Ferocious Beast) I think The Dad must have asked her the name of the show 15 times. We are such mean parents. I decided to go shopping with Princess Spazzy, The Dad decided I had to take The Baby with me. I swear that someday I will escape the house without him.

We all got into the van and I decided I needed to potty before we left. The Dad stayed in the van to keep the kiddos company. When I came out he had backed it halfway out of the garage so he could turn it on and get it warm without asphyxiating everyone inside. He hopped out, I hopped in and we were on our way. "Daddy moved the ban so you wouldn't run over stuff....this is grandma's ban and we can't crash it" UM WHAT? I explained that it was our van, that it had gotten fixed. "oh they painted it and it is new, so now you can't crash anymore reindeers, OK?" GEEZ you hit one little deer and they never let you live it down. I guess I need to tell her about all the Bambis others in the family have slaughtered so she'll get off my back. I called The Dad to tell him what was said and he swore he didn't tell her that. I believe him. She's just a shit. Princess Spazzy decided we should do our shopping in Peoria today. I should have ignored her. I don't think she knows the difference and I was unable to find what I wanted. However we were able to find an Easter Dress that we didn't need and we did get to stop by Sister #1/Sister#2's house and see the babies...and Sister #2. Princess Spazzy even got to hold little E. She was pretty excited. I was holding little A and The Baby at the same time. THAT was a trip. The Baby REALLY likes his cousins. I think he wants to eat them. Although today we decided he was trying to kiss him, it just looked like he was trying to eat his arm. Seriously though I think it was a kiss. Then he tried to rip off his ear. OOPS

We made it home from our shopping trip and Princess Spazzy tried on her Easter Dress for The Dad. She looks so freaking cute. I am gonna have to hide the dress. She is gonna want to wear it everyday. We also bought a present for the neighbor so I packaged that up and The Dad and Princess Spazzy went over to deliver it but no one came to the door. I decided to do what every good neighbor does....emailed them to see if they were home. Then I dumped The Baby on Number One and Princess Spazzy and I walked over.

When I got back I ordered the pizza but not before I got a really strange phone call. I was talking to my mom when I got the call. I saw that it was a local number and figured it was safe to answer. It was Neighbor Jake's dad. He said that he had talked to his wife and it was OK for Jake to stay here but he needed to come home and take a shower first. Um...OK. I hung up and called Joe in. He said that while I was gone Jake had called and asked his dad if he could stay here and play, NOT stay all night, but just stay a little longer. I guess somehow wires got crossed or whatever. At any rate, we have an extra kid tonight. Oh well THAT is what the basement is for right? I think they are still awake down there playing PS2. I wonder if he will ever get to stay here again. LOL At least I fed him some pizza right?

It was kinda nice tonight with the big boys in the basement. The Dad, Princess Spazzy, The Baby and I all watched Gone Country and we got some cute videos of The Baby giggling and crawling (if you can call it that) for the remote. We are sooo in trouble. Everyone (upstairs anyway) is finally asleep. I feel like I might even be soon. WOOHOO
