on the brain

my kids argued over who got to clean the toilets today. true story. after watching the show 'loosing it with jillian' barry commented how he wished we could go on that show but we aren't fat enough.??? apparently his view has become VERY skewed.  this morning ryan asked me why I wasn't as skinny as aunt teri.   i smacked him and told him to go live with aunt teri. ha! i kid...you hope!  see number 2. teri, ryan's bags are ready for your skinny butt to come pick him up. i have a 5 month old who thinks he needs to eat 4 times a night. what's with that? we are driving 1600 miles round trip to my brother's house in kansas in two weeks. we are very excited. sara peed her pants at our family reunion in a sandbox at a woods cross city park yesterday. {hello run on sentence} makes you think before taking your kids to the park huh? sorry. i need a good, inexpensive treadmill. anybody know where to get one? jena just got out of her bed for the 8th time. i kid you not. grrrr. ryan is counting down the days until he gets to be a big 3rd grader. he might not be the only one. if any of you knew jena at 3 years old, sara is jena times 5. for real. 14. barry just walked in from teaching at the academy, sat down in front of the tv and is now eating a bowl of cookie dough. see number 2.
