This child is killing me today. He woke up at 5 am and was fussy all morning. During breakfast he pulled a full bowl of cereal off the table. I cleaned that up and refilled the cereal bowl. Not 2 minutes later, he pulled that bowl off the table too. By this time I am saying bad words in my head. I take him upstairs to give him another bath. As soon as I get his diaper off he pees all over my floor. I get him all cleaned up and we run the boys to school. We are home for all of 5 seconds when he walks up to me with a cockroach in his mouth. He freakin' ate a cockroach. The leg was hanging out of his mouth. I start screaming. That scared him so he starts screaming. I pick the leg and left over body parts off my child and send him on his way. He walks right over to the kitchen table and pulls another bowl of cereal off the table... More bad words. Who is the idiot that keeps refilling the cereal bowls?! Oh yeah, me.
I take him to the park. He finds the one broken sprinkler and mud puddle. At first I try and keep him away. Then I think, he's already eaten a cockroach and dumped cereal on his head three times, what's a little water and dirt. When it's time to go I strip him down and head home. He falls asleep. He is STILL asleep. Hallelujah!

ahhhh life with boys.
but he is the cutest thing i have ever seen! what great pest control!
Oh my gosh! That is my worst nightmare. I don't know how I would have even pulled the cockroach out. You need a break today! I hope you get to do something other than dealing with crazy kids tonight. I missed you at Bunco last night!
Tate sounds like a handful. My mother in law just bought Avery a baby cage to put her in outside. seriously people buy them to put their dogs in and I put my child in it. If you need to try it out come on over.
Okay, yea, that sounds just horrible. I have the heeby jeebies just thinking about the half eaten cockroach in Tate's mouth!! You're a great mom Em, really!!
You make me laugh! He has been hanging around Tyson too long! I was freaking out today becuase I found Peyton playing with a dead cockroach and a dead bird (with no head, incidently...) out in our backyard...I really think I would have had a coronary if he had have eaten it! I guess after four boys, you really don't have the energy to care--and you are right, a little protein never hurt anybody!!! And by the way, I am so impressed that all those bad words were in your head, I wish I had that much self control!!!
if it makes you feel any better gavin ate a roach the other day too but i got it out before he swallowed it.
