Santa, I'd like a bottle of Tequila please! Forget it, I'll get my own!!
Then, I went home and made chili for about 20 or so people. My sister had a cook-out/ suprise party for my brother-in-law's 50th birthday so I offered to make some chili. While there, Nicklaus "entertained" the crowd with his 3-D Human Body book. Quite the talent, yes? Then Daddy and son "bonded" by hitting one another with towels. Do women do this? Most of them don't. And at some point of the evening, my husband decided to look like a WWE wrestler, The Cabinetman or something like that. Personally, dumbass with towel works for me.
And at some point in the evening, I guess all the festivities just made poor Nathan get all stressed out!
TUESDAY
Tuesday was not that busy. I just had to get my mom to take Noni to school so I could get to Nicklaus' school for his chorus concert. I walked in during the LAST song, but told him I'd been in the lobby and heard all of them. In reality, as soon as I got Nathan dressed, he decided that pooping would be a wonderful thing...and to get it from ass to elbows would be even better. By the time I was able to get to the school, the 20 minute concert was over. But, as long as Nicklaus believes his Mommy was there, it's all good!! One question though, am I the only person that thinks the Music Teacher got costume ideas from the Whos' down in Whoville? When I saw them and heard them sing, all I could really hear was:
Fah who for-aze!
Fah who for-aze!
Dah who dor-aze!
Dah who dor-aze!
Welcome Christmas,
Welcome Christmas,
Come this way!
Come this way!
Fah who for-aze!
Fah who for-aze!
Dah who dor-aze!
Dah who dor-aze!
Welcome Christmas,
Welcome Christmas,
Christmas Day.
And I've been told that song wasn't on the program. OOPS!!!
You do know that I could not have a totally uneventful day though. On the left is a picture of the little snack Nathan made for himself. And, in the interest of public safety, I decided to perform the following test, the results are on the right. This is what happens when you have your crock pot on the stove and you are so frazzled because of kids that you turn the burner UNDER the crock pot on. Flames and sparks were shooting at my head, so I bravely ran to unplug the cord. The sparks continued for several more minutes. Why you ask? Because the cord was burn in two and unplugging it didn't do a damn thing. So, now you know what happens, don't try this at home. No more "Fix-It and Forget-It" for me!!
WEDNESDAY
Went to Nicklaus' school today for his Christmas Luncheon. Ahhh...nothing is better than school lunchroom turkey and dressing!! Yummmmmy.....(sarcasm my dears, sarcasm). Later that night, Nathan decided to educate us about his feelings on the whole "size" issue. See, Nathan is the munchkin of the group. Nicklaus and Noni were both really big for their age. Nathan is not. Actually, he's quite small. He found this hat of his dad's and put it on. What does the hat say? Well, it has a picture of a fish...and the phrase "SIZE MATTERS!!"
