The Joy of sons...

Thanks to Mr. Willowtree down under, he directed me to the cutest web page...and since I have 3 boys...I find it funny...and alittle scary to see some of the future things that will happen to me!

you will never believe what happened...

so i had just finished my last post about how i love being a mom...when the horrible happens...my son smashed his mouth on the very corner of our brand new coffee table...

...first of all...let me add that we have had kids for 5 years and we have never owned a coffee table...both of us cracked our heads on the corners of coffee tables when we were kids and we just didn't want to deal with that...we have owned this coffee table for less than 2 weeks...i guess coffee tables will always be injury machines...

...but anyway...back to my disaster...so there is blood everywhere and he is screaming and not understand what is going on..the twins are crying...corrine is looking very scared...he split his lip and knocked loose one of his front teeth...

...let me say another thing...about 2 years ago we had to spend about 9 grand on his baby teeth...yea...that is what we thought...but they grew in rotton...some luck...so this loose tooth is worth about $700...

...so to make this long story very short...i spent the rest of my afternoon calling garrett so he could come home from work so i could take him to the ER...garrett spent the rest of his afternoon baking cookies for treat day...man...i tell ya...kids...ya can't live with them, ya can't live with them and own a coffee table...

Sometimes I just love being a mom...

So if you have read this blog at all, you know I have 4 kids...and they are a handful for me. I have twin infants, which are always keeping us busy...i have a 5 year old who is starting to have a social life---a bigger one than me i might add...and a 1 1/2 year old girl who wants to be the center of the world...and is sick...and is teething...4 teeth at a time!

But tomorrow is Kincaid's treat day at school...and this kind of stuff is my speciality. So I decided to do a super duper milk and cookies treat bag. They already get milk for snack time, so I baking the cookies. I am making oatmeal and raisin, macadamia nut and white choc., and halloween sugar cookies. I am going to decorate paper bags and put one of each cookie in each bag. I love doing this kind of stuff. I know I am so busy already and the pile of dishes on my counter is getting bigger by the second, but I don't care. I want my kids to have that special touch in their childhood. Isn't that one of the reasons I am a stay-at-home mother? I know it isn't for the money. I will take pictures and post later. But the down side of being a stay-at-home mother...I have 2 babies whining, 1 little lady screaming her head off, and one big brother who is bossing everyone around...but i love it!
