actual things people in this house have said to me (unprompted!) in the past 24 hours, in order but without any context
Charlie: ‘I went pee pee! Standing up! All by myself! And then I washed my hands! With soap! See, I did everything I was supposed to.’
Henry: ‘I want my hair really short. So it doesn’t stick up AT ALL. Like I had it when I was three.’
Wade: ‘I don’ t know how you do it all day with these kids. I’m here for an hour, and they’re driving me crazy.’
Henry: ‘Being with my family is the best Christmas gift of all.’
Charlie: ‘Oh no! Mommy, I fregot to get you a Christmas present!’ Followed by: ‘Mommy, you’re going to get LOTS of Christmas presents! From ME!’
Wade: ‘Everyone in my office has been giving me wine. I told them you would appreciate it.’

Did Wade mean whine? Because I’d totally be sending that crap back.
So glad to hear that you are going to receive MANY presents, the majority being alcohol. Yippee!

“Being with my family is the best Christmas gift of all.”
Henry has been reading too much Hallmark.

Give Charlie a big kiss since he’s including you on the whole Xmas present thing! I asked Zoey what she was getting me for Xmas and she replied, “Mommies and Daddies don’t get Xmas presents. Just kids.”
How true.

I went potty, too! All by myself! AND I washed with soap!
I need some wine, too. No whine, though. I had enough of that shizznit last night, thank you very much.

And Henry says the sweetest things!

hey, your blog looks totally different today. It’s such a change from the last header pic of your backyard. And you’ve cleaned up your links lists. It’s a goodlokking site even if I did like it the old way also.
In case I don’t get around to blogging much in the next few days, I wish Friday Playdate and it’s happy little choir of bloggers a merry Christmas and a happy new year, Happy Chanukah and happy Kwanzaa! & hoping everyone has a better one in 2006.

I’m here to comment only on the new look. Because as usual I love the post itself and it’s probably getting redundant.
Oh, my. New header. Too much white for me. I like the list of links except I notice that MY SITE IS MISSING.
Oh, it never was there in the first place? Then this is a shameless and poorly disguised request.
Did I just break all the rules of Mombloggerati?
