I have to say that blogging might be very trendy and it might certainly wear off, but right now its rather fun. I am finding many ways to waste time and add stuff to the blog. I thought that I might share a quick excerpt of my evening tonight..
Jenni as she walks out the door - "Tuna noodle casserole is in the oven"
Chris - "Thanks Honey, Have fun tonight"
A few minutes pass by and I am getting dinner on the table. I know that the kids don’t like Tuna noodle and little do they know that Jenni has made some noodles for them separately. So I set the casserole on the table and call in everyone to eat.
G- An Emphatic "What is that?"
Mocky- "Dad, I don’t want that... nope, don’t want that. Dad, I don’t want that."
Lulu- No Words, just scowling at it and then looking at me like, are you really going to feed us that crap?
Dad (me) - "Come on Kids, its just a little tuna noodle, your up for the challenge right?"
Mocky- "No.. I don’t want it"
G- "No, thanks, aren’t there any noodles?"
Lulu- "What else are we having for dinner?"
Of course I fill them in that they don’t have to have any unless they want to try it. Unfortunately, I didn’t have any takers.
We then start to eat dinner and I ask G and Lulu how school was today, the both looked at me and said "fine". I figure that to get them to talk, I need to ask them about something they like, so I ask, "Who did you play with at Recess?"
Here was the response from Lulu "The same people we told you yesterday Dad."
Good Grief - Needless the say the rest of the evening went along uneventfully. No accidents, unnecessary chaos, and everyone was in bed on time.. Mostly...
Have a great evening..

Hey, as far as I am concerned, you can come babysit for our kids anytime you want. Do you hire out? We NEVER have babysitters without chaos and accidents and we can't even get our kids to bed on time. What do you charge?
