OMG, OMG, OMG!

Ok, so I might be biased, but I really do think that I have one of THE cutest kids in exsistance.

Squirt's t-ball team won a pre-season tournament out in Jones last month, completely undefeated. In fact, they didn't have their first loss until just this past Tuesday. After they won the tournament, their coach entered them in a contest at one of the local news stations (news9) called "Little Blitzers". The weekly winner would have one of their games covered, just like college and the pros, with highlights and commentary. The footage would play on the news, and the team would win a party for 40 people to Braums (a burger and icecream joint).

Guess whose team won the very first week??? GO SOONERS!!!

Here is the link to the footage from last nights 10 o'clock news. You better watch, because it's too cute.

And this is the second time that he's been on the news. About a month ago, the same channel sent their morning weather guy to throw a pizza party for Little Man's Kindergarten class!

The camera loves him, don't you think?

I shot up out of bed at 8:30 this morning to hear Squirt bawling. Apparently Daddy and I slept in too late and the poor kid was "starving to deaf". Those are his words, not mine. Maybe that's why he has problems with doing what he's told, because he's always "starving to deaf".

So we all got up and I gave him a little dry cereal to tide him over while he helped me make blueberry muffins, or as the little man calls them, muffmans.


And because he's always such a willing little helper, I decided to let him have first pick when they were done.



This is him informing me that since the hole from the toothpick is in this muffin, then it must be the biggest and that's the one he wants.

Isn't he just too cute? He's gonna be the "deaf" of me one of these days.



I'm linking up again with Rebecca over at simple as that. Enjoy your Sunday!

I am completely sick to my stomach. What am I going to do with this kid???

I just got a note from the teacher (again) about his behavior. I thought he had been doing so well! He was telling me that school was great and even said he got rewarded by the substitute on Tuesday.

Now I'm being told that he's been "struggling with good choices this week" and that he was hitting. And not just because the other kid hit him, he also hit someone that hadn't even touched him.

Now she is saying that this is his warning and that next time he won't get to go to the zoo with the rest of the class next week. Why is my good kid turning back in to this crazy, impulsive brat?

Hubby told him last night that if he could behave the rest of the week (just one more day!), then he would go get him pancakes from Braums for breakfast on Saturday. Guess who won't be getting pancakes tomorrow.

I know that the late nights with t-ball probably have a little to do with it, but I don't want to use that as an excuse. He knows how he is supposed to behave!

And while I'm definitely upset/mad/angry/whatever, I also feel bad for him. He was bawling and I didn't raise my voice at all. I did send him to bed though. He looked so tired and was crying, so I told him to go take a nap.

I'm just hoping that this is not a sign of what the rest of his school career is going to be like.  = (

We have a problem.

Not a single post for the month of March.

I know it's my own fault. I haven't taken the time to sit down and write anything.

For some reason, I have convinced myself that no one wants to read about all of the mundane goings on in my life.

Like the fact that Hubby decided to sell the tractor, and I am the one that actually found him a buyer. I told him that I should get a handling fee for that. I was paid with new scrapbook materials! = )



Or the fact that Squirt decided to play t-ball instead of soccer this season, and I don't think I've ever seen anything so funny in all of my life. 3, 4, and 5 year olds trying to play baseball??? Hilarious.



Or how about how funny I must be when I go watch him play ball? Jumping up and down and screaming and yelling my fool head off. I think I must scare the other parents.

And the boys both got haircuts this weekend. I like Hubby's short short. But I like Squirts longer on top.

A coworker of mine wants me to do maternity pictures for her, but she had some others done by a member of her church that were gorgeous and so now I'm not feeling very confident. I worry that mine won't be as good as the other ones. I'm always second guessing myself. It's why I don't usually have any follow thru on dreams/goals/etc...

We had a scheduled black-out at work today. Joy. A prison, in the warmth of Oklahoma, with no circulating air. That place has the potential to be RIPE.

OK. That's all for now.



I need to go locate my wit and humor.
