the good, the not-so-good, the funny, and the just plain awkward.

{picture from a few Sundays ago.}

It seems as though a lot of little random things have happened lately that could either be classified as good, not-so-good, funny, or just plain awkward.

Here, I'll prove it:

The Good:

-Jack waking me up the other morning by singing "I Love to See the Temple" and asking me to sing it with him.

-My soon-to-be-sister-in-law having me try on a bridesmaid dress that I LOVED. (It's from Banana Republic. The girl has awesome taste.)

-Finding a darling pair of little springtime sneakers at Payless for $3.

-Laughing and talking about memories over breakfast the other morning with Kurt.

-Renting the book 365 TV-Free Activities to do With your Child from the library.

-Having a free subscription to Parenting Magazine thanks to my sister-in-law and getting my first issue in the mail this month.

-Kurt grilling some mean burgers the other night for dinner...and then cleaning it all up afterward.

-Finally cleaning our laundry room. I actually kind of enjoy going in there now.

The Not-So-Good:

-Jack spilling an entire glass of ice cold water all over my lap at Fuddruckers. (Does anyone else hate saying that name?)

-Forgetting one of my grocery bags at Walmart. It's because of those stupid turn table things they use for their plastic bags! I always feel like I'm forgetting a bag and then lo and behold I did actually forget one. And it was the one with all the baby food. I was way bugged. Why can't they just have baggers like they used to?

-Stubbing my toe SO hard and maybe saying a not so good word under my breath. Oh and it was right before going out the door for church. Sweet.

-The UPS delivery man banging on the door as if his life depended on it - during the boys' NAPS! Grrrr...

-Not being able to find the TV remote anywhere all morning so the TV was stuck on Sportscenter. Then I randomly found it in the diaper bag. What the ?....

The Funny:

-Pretty much any conversation I have with Jack lately. Some recent examples:

Me: "Jack do you want some breakfast?"

J: "I can't right now, mom, I'm exercising with Dad. Maybe tomorrow."

J: "Mom, bums get poops out."

Me: "Yep. They do."

Me: "How are you feeling, sweety?"

J: {long sigh} "Not very good. I think I have a fever. I think it's time for my nap."

J: {pretending to be on the phone} "No way! You are KIDDING me!!"

The just plain awkward:

- A girl in my sewing class announcing to everyone that she thinks the word diarrhea is pretty. Ummm....okay?.....

-The window by our kitchen table that people always walk by while we're eating. And then having eye contact with them mid-bite.

-Having to stay late at school and being the only other one in the room while the T.A. and a boy in my class totally flirted up a storm. Yep, just the three of us in there. So awkward.
