Thanks to fall break, my week of watching Susie ended two days early! Sarge didn't have to be at school till 9:30, so there was no reason for anyone to get up at six, or six thirty! We enjoyed a late night family jam session on guitar hero, so the kiddos let us sleep in till 8!
We were all (including the cats) cuddled up in the big bed, and sarge brings up breakfast. " Belle what do YOU want for breakfast??" (im thinking -oh you!! don't ask a three year old what they want! you tell them what they can have!!) Belle- I want biscuits!! Sarge- biscuits? huh? what do you say mom?
(his evil plan is becoming clear....) Me- oh, i would have to dig out that recipe. ( no processed biscuits for us since i started insisting on whole wheat flour)
Sarge- wellll.... I was thinking something i could just pick up.... Me- you want doughnuts don't you!
Sarge- It would be nice and easy! Me- ohh alright!! (Sarge checks my pulse, and makes sure im not running a delirious fever)
Belle- NO! i want biscuits daddy! Sarge- (afraid his plan is backfiring) oh, Belle, don't you remember what doughnuts are?? there like biscuits, with sugar on them! and a hole in the middle!
Needless to say, we had doughnuts for breakfast.
And In an early morning sugar high Calvin decided to dance on the table, and narrowly avoided injury when he toppled off, because of super mommy's reflexes. Speaking of super... As long as breakfast is junk, why not watch a movie this morning and just make it a really fun day? Belle thought that was fabulous, and she took about 5 minutes to pick a movie. The whole time, I was thinking and willing in my head- NOT the Incredibles... NOT the Incredibles..... please... "mommy! i wanna watch the credibles!!" It seems like any time I let her watch a movie these days, usually afternoon, when school is done and Calvin and Susie are napping and i need her to be quiet, and I end up listening to a book with earphones so I don't have to hear it again.
Sarge and I are listening to the same book, Stephen Kings 11-22-63 . Im not usually a big Stephen king fan, but this book has me hooked!!
Im gonna go listen to it right now, while i clean up junk cause the exterminator is coming for his regular spray and prevent evil bugs thing.
