This morning as we were doing our normal rush rush rush to get everyone ready to walk out the door, I was slapped in the face with the reality that occasionally the clowns DO listen to me when I talk.
Here is the story.
I have not been feeling 100% for a few days... just temperature change chest congestion and maybe mild allergies, nothing earth shattering. Well I decided to take a shower this morning and try to loosen it up and see if I could clear it out a bit before starting my day. For what it is worth the shower did not work.
I come back down to the kitchen and Freckles is making her lunch for school and she says to me
"Dad says you were up in the shower laying around while he was bustin' our buns to get ready."
To which I respond,
"I was not laying around in the shower I was actually attempting to cough up a lung and see if I could breathe a little bit better."
Freckles say "Oh..."
In chimes Buzzy "Suck it up buttercup!"
All I could do is look and laugh. It is something that we say to him when he is having a tantrum over nothing. So I guess I know that he really does listen to me when I talk. Why can't he hear when I tell him to clean the toy room??

We are still alive and kicking.
Blinker is doing so much better. The tubes are little miracles, she was just a different baby by that afternoon. I wish that there was a miracle for teething. She is working on her top two teeth and has become quite the biter. All I can say is OWIE for mama.
Buzzy had his first wipe out on his tricycle the other day, now he has scraped up knees. I was so proud of him, he got up and dusted off and was back on the tricycle within minutes. There is just no stopping him.
Jane is well, Jane. Still dancing to the song in her head. Never a dull moment. There is always a good story to tell... I just wish that I had more time to devote to writing them down for you all.
Freckles amazes me every day. She is reading more and more. Every time #1 and I turn around she is reading something. I think that over the summer I am going to have to keep her busy with the library and keep it up.
I am feeling better and can say that much. After another appointment, an abdominal ultra sound and an abdominal x-ray I have come to find out that I have irritable bowel syndrome, or so they think. Well due to the fact that I am still pretty exclusively breastfeeding Blinker there is very little that I can do when it comes to medication. I am not going to venture into the realm of untested medications to find out later that I did some harm to her. I am taking a probiotic every day and in the first week has made a tremendous difference. I have gone back to my one true love... the mighty diet coke, but only once a day, first thing in the morning to kick start my engine.
