Dogs stink. Last night I was getting the kids ready for bed and all I could smell was that wet dog smell. I kept asking, "Why does it smell like wet dog?" I kept sniffing around everyone and everything. I finally went up to the dog - the dog smelled like wet dog because well, she was a wet dog and REALLY muddy. It had been raining all day - hard rain and she must have been running down the hill in the backyard and slid (she slides without the rain). So now we have this really dirty, smelly dog that I should just wash but can't handle a 90 lb. mass of chaos when wet, so we're loading her in the car and taking her to the groomer.
Other tidbits from last night.
The term "washable paint' applies to bodies. All the kids were painting after dinner last night and Austin suddenly asked, "Is this paint washable?" I said yes. He then took off his shirt and painted his face two different colors and painted an "A" on his chest. I videoed it but didn't have the camera - it's with Randy at High Adventure.
Tyler says to me, "Are you going to have another baby? You're tummy's getting big". Thank you Tyler. I actually thought I was looking better. I told him after you have a baby your tummy is big for a while and then tried to convince him that it was getting smaller.
McKell screaming at the top of her lungs and shaking because she saw a fly in the house. A fly the boys knowingly pointed out to her because they knew what her reaction would be. I don't understand her - she's super confident, not afraid of anything and then become incapacitated when she sees any flying insect. She howls like it was the worst thing it the world. It's going to be a long summer.
Austin trying to pull his loose front tooth out last night. He and Ian teamed up and said, "This tooth IS coming out tonight". They tried everything - even the old slamming the door trick, in which I saw and almost threw up it made me sick to watch. He got it out and was very excited about. McKell then thought she had a loose tooth. We wound up checking each tooth to see if they were loose. Shockingly, none were...
This morning I hear a 'where's the dollar?' Yep, I forgot. I made him look around his pillows and slipped it in on the side of his bed. He then said, "I think I should get more because it was the biggest tooth".
Off to control the masses.
