*Brian is allergic (or at least VERY sensitive) to the tape they used in surgery...remember to mention this for the next surgery
*They don't make soccer shorts for midgets...Alison's will be WAY too big for practice on Sat, just be glad there is a drawstring
*Toddler story time starts next week...make sure you know the dates when promising your kids something
*Telling Ellie not to stand up in the stroller is the same as yelling "GO AHEAD - DO WHAT YOU WANT!"
*You are probably more worried about Alison's all day Gymnastics Camp next week than she is...relax
*Yes you really are turning 31 on Easter...don't worry your Mom will be here to ease you into it
*It's much easier to plan dinner ahead of time than to think of something to fix at 4:30pm...maybe you should make a menu for next week?
*Call Grandma Karen to arrange haircuts for the girls while she is here
*French bread Pizza is not one of the food groups...maybe (just maybe) you should go one day without eating it and eat something healthier
*Remember when you were telling your Aunt that you didn't realize how much your husband does around the house until he is out of commission? - Tell him, I'm sure he'd appreciate it
*Remember how good (and put together) you feel right now with your hair done and toes painted...don't go back to being a slob ;o)
* your oldest is only four, even though you have conversations like these:
You: clean up the toys, its time to get out of the shower
Al: I don't want to get out yet
You: How long do you think we are going to be in here? We've got stuff to do today
Al: How about 20 minutes?
You: I don't think so
Al: Well then how about 20 more 1 minutes?
everything that makes up french bread pizza is in a food group, so it totally counts.
ReplyDeletealison may be 3, but she is 3 going on 16.
i totally agree about the cooking dinner.... i'm so good about cooking if i just plan ahead. i absolutely hate trying to decide WHAT to cook ...
ReplyDeletegotta love the way you feel when your toes are freshly painted!!
hahaa love the 20 more 1 minutes that's so cute. I'm allergic to the adhesive tape they use in surgery too. and I always forget what it feels like to be well put together and put makeup on and do my hair hahaha. I've been a slob for the past 6 months now. I literally just started putting make up on the last 2 days in a row.
ReplyDeleteWell, Mandi, you have met your match with Alison! I can't wait until she is 14 and see how YOU handle it!
ReplyDeleteI like the "Notes to Self". I think I will start doing that too.
See you on Thursday....
Love you, Mom
Those are some pretty good reminders!
