The Joys of Motherhood!

The joys of Motherhood!

Daddy, Sophie, and Tanner having an art day!

So, I had just been thinking to myself...oh it is so great that Tanner and Sophie have become such great friends and like playing with eachother. I was cleaning the kitchen when I kept seeing the kids walk back and forth from eachothers rooms. I didn't think much about it...since they only had one toy each in their hands. Then I could hear all this giggling...so I went to Tanner's room...and this is what I saw...(see pictures below) and empty room with no toys...so i went down the hallway to Sophie's room and this is what I saw (see picture above) They had taken every toy from Tanners room to Sophie's room and thought they were so funny!
The empty room of Tanner!

Attempt of the local park for a picnic!

So, I had been feeling bad for kids and myself because of the yucky long winter we've had so I decided to take them for a picnic down the street to the park. MISTAKE! It was too cold, our food got cold too fast being outside....and of all things...there was DOG POOP all over the playground..Ooooooo it made me so mad! I felt like taking a poopie diaper of Tanner's to every resident in town who owned a dog and smear it on their front porch! Seriously who lets there dogs run and poop on the city playground that is for kids not DOGS! Don't get me started on my feelings about Dogs. Nothing makes me more upset then when I see a dog taking a crap on city property where people walk and kids play. In fact there was dog poop down the slides, because kids would step in it by accident and then go down the slide! I would never let my child squat and poop on city property let alone someone else's yard...and if they did I would clean it up!
I could do a post just on how I feel about dogs.....last word of advice...don't ever compare a dog to my children....BIG DIFFERENCE! I realize people think of their pets as family members which is completely fine, I still think of my cat Ivory as part of my family..but take care of your pet and their crap!

Thanks to the disgusting dogs here in Paradise, my kids now own what they call "their Poopie shoes"! that stay in the garage!

This is one of Tanner's many creations when he is supposed to be sleeping!

Gotta love Sidewalk chalk until it turns into Window Chalk, Brick Chalk, and SIssy Chalk.... Thank you Tanner for all your creative coloring choices!

Well since we no longer live by Seaworld this is what we do with our kids on a Saturday....Go to Cal Ranch Country store and watch baby chicks! Gotta love living in a small town!
