I thought I would take part in a really fun blog hop today. This is from Musings of a Housewife. The rules are to put down the first line of the first blog post for each month in 2010. I tweaked mine a bit ( surprise, surprise) and chose a sentence from somewhere in a blog post for each month of the year. It’s hard to believe 2010 is coming to a close. The old saying “The days are long, but the years are short” is so very true isn’t it?
January – Door knob covers? I not only have to have them, but I have to duct tape them closed because they have figured out how to pop them apart.I could keep going, Oh trust me!
February - Funny how different men and women are.
I said “awww, David…look at Wade’s butt. I have got to get a picture, it is so cute!”
David said “Hey Wade….Crack kills“.
March – I’m just going to put this out there – you all are my family and friends so I’m not going to be all prim and proper…I would rather smell a fart.
April - Hello, my name is Debbie…and I’m a Targeholic.
May – Because I have not “birthed” babies…. I have birthed bloodhounds.
June – Olivia’s first encounter with a pot bellied pig
July – The only “downer” of the evening was being terrorized by a swooping bat. Not fun
August - Vertigo is really funny, If it isn’t happening to me.
October – And see what happens when I try to take a few minutes to rest
November – I told her the doctor at the hospital helped get her out of my belly.
Her response was, “DID YOU EAT ME!?!?”
December – I looked down at the four little humans and realized I was going to have to take these things back home with me.

I hope you all have a safe and happy New Year Celebration. Me? I’m going to be sleeping at midnight. That’s what happens when you get old.
SICK.
Before I whine, I will say I’m thankful the kids were healthy over Christmas and we were able to go celebrate Christmas with family. Now, with THAT out of the way -
What the heck is going on?? My kids have been sick with some thing or other for over a month now. Colds circle round, high fevers circle round, stomach bugs circle round, sore throats circle round…doctor visits, medicine, sleepless nights, sick whiny children – I’m SOOOO not having a good time in the McCormick Mad House.
And when one child gets sick…I just wait it out knowing the other 3 will follow.
Soooo, I have been using this:
A lot
And as stated on the can; “KILLS 99.99% OF GERMS”.Well – I think I know where the 1/100th germ is. IT”S HERE! (
Stupid Germ!)I wonder just what kind of germ the 1/100th is? Don’t you? It kind of freaks me out a little knowing there is this “germ” that will not die.
Go away you stupid germ…
Due to some snow and ice, schools were closed today. Let’s see…three 4 year olds and a 2 year old…at home…together…all day. The best solution to this is to keep them busy. So I rented a couple kid movies from Amazon On Demand – and planned to also let them bake cookies.
I really saw their personalities show during the cookie decorating. It’s funny how different they are.
Luke – neat, precise, fast.

Wade – free spirited, reckless.

Zoe – meticulous, artistic, patient

Olivia – 100% toddler

And after the cookies were done, we had sprinkles all over the floor. Not a problem with Wade around. I handed off my floor vacuum and said “have fun”. That kept him busy for about 30 additional minutes. HA!

Just heard school is also out tomorrow. I need to come up with a game plan for day two! Because we all know a bored preschooler is a dangerouspreschooler.
