I gotta remember...


The kids have done some pretty funny things in the last week that I just had to get on the blog to remember.

The other day I was sitting in the office working while Teagan and Wyatt were in their rooms happily playing together (a rare moment indeed!) I heard Wyatt going to the bathroom - I actually heard him pee'ing in the toilet. Then I hear him holler at Teagan:

"teeg - we are out of toilet paper"

To which Teagan replies:

"I know. Just shake. It will be OK."

I swear to god she sounded just like me. It was hysterical.

One night last week Teagan had actually taken a nap during the day (neither kids nap at all anymore...which makes for a long day for Mommy!) so we knew she would be up till at least 10:00 pm. There is no sense fighting her to go to bed because she will simply not go to sleep until she is ready. Period. End of discussion. So after we get Wyatt to sleep I ask if she wants to come out and spend some time with Mommy and Daddy. She happily accepts. With all her Care Bears in tow (Cheer and Share are her favorites), her blankie and her Bubba (bunny rabbit) she comes into watch TV with Travis and I. It happens to be Survivor. My favorite show to watch will snacking on popcorn as they are all starving of hunger. (I have a dark sense of humor - I know) I ask Teagan if she wants to share some popcorn with Mommy - and she is thrilled. You see popcorn is like one of her all time favorites next to strawberries. The girl has literally all of my DNA and none of Trav's. We all snuggle in to watch Survivor and munch popcorn.

All of a sudden Teagan jumps off the couch and runs to the bathroom to go potty - then she runs back in and says:
"I have to go potty - can you pause it for a second?!"

Travis and I look at each other and bust out laughing. Then of course, we paused Survivor until our 3 year old was done going potty!
