Not too much to say today. Caleb and I went to go visit Joe at the station this afternoon, but after the third call we decided to just go home.. LOL So we went to the store and got some stuff for lunch, went home ate and put him to bed. He was so grouchy. The real news came after nap time when we went swimming.
He is forever wanting to impress people with how great he is in the pool.. LOL So a family came with two girls and they were scared of the water. So of course Caleb wants to take off his floaties and show them how he can swim with out them like a big boy. Then he wants to show them how he can go under, then he decides (with out telling me!) that he is going to JUMP IN with out floaties!!! yeah, we had a talk about that, but I let him do it with me standing near by in case he couldn't get back to the side. But man he did sooo good. When he learns how to come up for air, he will be a GREAT swimmer! He is such a show off.. wanting me to throw the football to him so he can try to catch it while jumping in like he has seen the big kids do. LOL He is so cute!
It shouldn't have to be said for the day: Caleb, mommy does not want to hold the ants! Please don't bring me anymore! LOL

Poop in the water
Well as if yesterday wasn't crazy enough.. LOL
After church and nap yesterday we went to the bowling alley and Caleb got to bowl for the first time. He scored a 101, 104 and 112! ROFL Of course with bumpers, but wow he got like 3 strikes and 4 spares. That's so good! Even with bumpers! My it shouldn't have to be said comes from this trip... when we looked up and instead of throwing his ball, he was holding it looking into the holes as a spit string was making its way down into them. I looked up just in time to see it slipping down in there and Joe yelled out, "CALEB NO! We do not spit in our bowling balls!!
Then we decided that we were going to come back here and go swimming. Well right in the middle of swimming Caleb decides he needs to poop in the potty. Well our pool is sitting beside some wooded type area, so I said well he can just go squat there so he doesn't have to walk all the way back to the apt, and then back. So he squatted then said, well nevermind, I just need to go pee pee. Ok whatever. A few min later I see him climbing out and just standing there. And suddenly he says OH NO! Mommy.. I just pooped in my swim trunks! gaah! So I get out, dh gets the poop and bags it up.. (yuck) and I get the hose and hose him and his swim trunk off.. poop was everywhere! LOL! Lesson learned: Caleb doesn't want to squat to poop! Now I'm wondering what we are going to do when we go camping! LOL!
So today, we get up and go to the dentist (I had a short apt) so all of us went then went to eat. Caleb was being HORRIBLE!!!
Before we left, he said the 3 words that can crush everything in me.. I hate you. :o( Not even for a good reason really. He was just so bad all morning, I don't know why. I hope its better later. We were going to take him to the spray park or as he calls it the shower park, but after how bad he was we wouldn't let him go. That was the hardest thing EVER!!! To actually just go home when his little heart was broken and he was crying his eyes out! I wanted to take him so bad, but we had to stand our ground. We took him home and told him that if he can earn it, we will take him some other time. We are going back that way this evening, if he is good for the rest of the day, we will probably take him. *sigh* parenting is hard!
It shouldn't have to be said for the day: "We do not spit in the holes of the bowling ball!!"

It shouldn't have to be said...
I have started this blog to tell about our family life, mostly as an online scrapbook journal.
Today Caleb woke up early. Too early! Joe doesn't get home from work until about 8:15ish, and he brings breakfast home on Sunday mornings. Caleb woke up at 7 wanting to get up and eat. So I turned on cartoons and told him daddy would be home in just a bit with breakfast. Sooo.. fast forward a few snoozes on the alarm clock later.
I am in the family room picking up a bit before Joe gets home and Caleb sneaks into the pantry and gets a pack of raisins. Not normally a problem, he does this a lot.. LOL Usually he will sit at the kitchen table like he is supposed to, BUT this time he goes into my bedroom to watch cartoons again. And comes out 2 min later freaking out, "GET IT OUT!!" I notice that he is running and bouncing in place with his arms flailing everywhere, which is usually his freak out position, and take him seriously. I run to him and stoop down, immediately looking for blood. None found, that's good.. he's breathing, also good. At this point he is pointing to his nose saying its stuck! ... CRAP! LOL! He had a raisin stuck in his nose! So I look and see nothing, so I ask what is stuck (at this point I didn't know he snuck them) and he tells me his raisin.
Well you would think that I would see a raisin in his nose so this has to be WAY up there! I try Joe (he's an EMT), can't get him, try his medic partner, no luck so I start thinking I should just call 911?? until I rememeber all the STUPID calls that they get and decide this would probably be one of them! LOL! So I decide since he is breathing, so it can't be that bad, and Joe should be home any minute.
Finally Joe walks in, and goes into EMT mode when he sees all the commotion, only to laugh at us when he finds out its over a lodged raisin. (I guess after seeing a man hit by a car that day a raisin was a pretty funny thing to see me freak about.) So he plugs the clear nostril and tells him to blow... out flies the raisin. Now you might think at this point my son who is three would be crying because he just had an object stuck, blocking one of his nostrils. NOPE he yells HOORAY my raisin!!! And proceeds to pick it up and start toward his mouth with it! gaah! kids! I promptly take it away, scold him for putting it in his nose, tell him its yucky now and throw it in the trash. *sigh* and this was all before 9am this morning.
So my it shouldn't have to be said for the day is actually a twofer. First: Caleb we do not put raisins or anything else in your nose! Much less shove it as far as you can! and Secondly: We do not eat raisins that have been stuck in your nose!!
LOL really should we have to say these things to our kids?
Previous it shouldn't have to be said's from this week:
Quit licking your DVD and put it in! Actually.. Quit licking the DVD, table, floor, vacuum, wall, sink and especially MY FACE .. am I the only one with a licker?
We do NOT reach in the toilet and touch our poo poo! (gag!)
No you can not go play with that bee, ant, snake, bird.. (you get the point)
I love being a mom.. ROFL
