First Corn on the Cobb

Perhaps I should title this Why I Don't Take My Kids Out to Resturants. Apparently none of us explained to the sweet little man how to eat sweet corn. After he tried to eat like a puppy for a few minutes The Husband demonstrated to him how it's done.

Jake watched intently before trying again, but I have no idea what the heck Snoo is doing. Dear, it's sweet corn, not spicy corn.

This is precisely why we don't take our kids out in public these days. Not to mention I barely have any decent pictures of Snoo because she's either hiding from the camera, trying to poke the lense out, or she looks like a 10 year old strung out on crack sugar.

Now, I'm not sure if the corn is just so good it's making Jake crazy or maybe it's so bad that he's about to eat our thumbs off. Something's up though because Snoo is plugging her nose? Um, is she going to take a dip underwater or does the corn taste like seaweed or something? Sometimes I wonder about that kid...

Jake eventually gets the hang of it and puts on those charming glances. Even though he was leaving behind a salty greasy mess, I was too busy looking into those great big brown eyes. And wondering why I can never keep any clothes on the kid.

Boys and their... Dollhouses?

Who says boys shouldn't play with dollhouses? Yes, I know what it looks like. In one of the pictures it appears as though the T-Rex is humping poor Cookie monster, or as Snoo used to call him, Oodie Odder, but I can assure you it's just a friendly hu and this is a G-rated site. He's giving Big Bird a kiss on the cheek in the third picture which proves T-Rex is a lover and not a fighter all after. Either that or he's eating off Big Bird's face but Jakey's expression is just too sweet to concede to that theory.

Snoo had this toy when she was little, only she made sure to scratch all the eyes off of every character. They were staring at her and she didn't like that.

I found this house at a yard sale and swooped it up for old time's sake. As you can see Jakey bee quite enjoys the Sesame Street house so long as dinosaurs can chill with the baby puppets. It started off really friendly, he was just checking Big Bird out at first. Then T-Rex came into the picture. Sometime's he gives hugs and kisses and other times I hear a big ROAR and it appears he's stompng them to death. In the second picture, I'm certain the dinosaur is bowing in reverence to King Big Bird. What dinosaur wouldn't? It's not every day that you meet a ten foot tall yellow bird that sings and talks. Unless you went to Woodstock.

Why Moms are on Prozac

Could this be why so many young moms are on Prozac these days? Now, I'm good at shrugging this off and waiting for what's next but day after day, after awhile you get tired of cleaning the house and finding it totally destroyed ten minutes later. There's crap all over the table, floor, and counters. It's ridiculous. Why do I bother?

Oh. My. God. This is what it has come to. And who keeps leaving the cereal out?

And note the toddler that's standing on the table, while trying to shove his chubby little gut into a crayola crafts tub.

It's no wonder that he hasn't hurt himself yet.
