At Least I know it's doin Its Job.....




Yesterday was going pretty smoothly. I only had one more day till Ty got home.  All I had to do was Survive Friday without any incident.  It was going to be a busy day and The boys would be pooped when we were all done.

   I got up with the boys and went to the gym and then ran some errands, then went to Mc D's with a good friend and her kids.  The day was good; I mean, there was whining and fussing but, no more than the norm-so I could handle it.
By the time we got home it was 2:00 and the boys were oober tired and ready for naptime!!!

Yay!!!   Both of the boys went in their rooms without a fuss!
I didn't hear anything from either boy at all!  It was sooo nice!

My plan to stay busy all morning worked! Almost home free!  Ty would be home in 23 hours. Now I just had to survive post nap time and dinner then I'm home free!!!

But during my relaxation time, I started to smell a Mint type smell.  It started getting stronger and stronger and then I could put my finger to what the smell, smelled like.... it smelled like and Icy-hot smell.   

We don't have Icy-hot; what smells like Icy-hot??? OH NO.  Desitin ointment smells like Icy-hot!!!!!

I ran to Rykers bedroom -  The Source of the Smell!!!  I opened his door and found him covered HEAD to TOE in Desitin Cream!  It was also smeared all over his Headboard and some blankets!

Thank goodness for my Lax day or else I would have been in another Rage of Fury.   Ryker, did you make a Mess????  Yes mommy Ryker makin a Mess.

I laughed my butt off and ran to grab the camera.  
I took a few pictures and then started a bath for ryker.

Wow!  That stuff really doesn't come off!!  It took me soooo long to get it off!!!  I washed him over and over and over again!   It's still in his hair!   And I started Smelling like Desitin, then my arms started to feel cool and tingly!    

Our house smelled like desitin for the rest of the day.  Thankfully it's now only smelling like that in Ryker's room.

right now it's 1:30  Ryker is in his bedroom for nap time.  I need to get tyler at 3.   Lets hope nothing happens in an Hour and a half!!

Lackadaisical - Mothers Day


I love my Primary Calling as Secretary .   I love being in there with all of the kids.   This last sunday ( Mothers Day) Was quite rowdy however.

With, all of the coloring and song singing during sharing time all of the kids were pretty wound up, because of Mothers day.   So we finally get the children to calm down for a bit, then it was time to sing the "Builder Song"  I am a builder working......

So Sister Rowland says to the Jr. Primary- It's time to sing the "Builders Song" and all of the Kids (and I mean all of em) yell/sing simultaneously "BOB THE BUILDER CAN HE FIX IT BOB THE BUILDER YES HE CAN."   

I didn't help any by laughing my butt off.   What a great example of reverence I am he he he.  It was HI-larious.

So Tyler has been in Las Vegas since Last week (for work).   So he wasn't here for Mothers Day (he left me a card that i wasn't to open till mothers day... I opened it Mothers day and it was an Olive garden gift card YAY!!!)
Since I took the boys to church by myself, and endured them alone; I thought it would be the best Mothers day Present to have a Nap.

My boys are generally routine when taking naps.   I got home from church POOPED, but ready to feed them lunch and put them to bed.    They Obviously read my mind, by seeming to know that I wanted a nap.   So they wouldn't eat lunch and they would most definitely NOT take a nap!  
I finally got Phoenix down- with milk ( since he wouldn't eat anything) and a nice little body massage (spoiled rotten!!!) at about 1:30. 
                                     And Then it was time to Battle Ryker
After being firm in saying NO MORE TOYS NAP TIME; I dragged Him into his room, while screaming at the top of his lungs TOYS MAMA TOYS, CHOCOLATE MILK MAMA, TOONS.
I got him into bed, and I shut the door.   He was still screaming.   He screamed and cried for a good 10 min.   He Usually falls asleep after that.  

So I finally heard- SILENCE- Awe silence... I will fall asleep.   I drifted off to sleep.   
I got my Mothers Day nap.   A very Short Mothers day Nap.   

Ryker woke me up by saying- Mama change my diaper ( he has to wear a diaper to bed even though he's potty trained for the day).   So I take a deep breath and realize he was POOPY.  YUCK!  Okay Ryker go get undies and Wipes.

The wipes are in Phoenix's room, and phoenix was still taking a nap.   Ryker took the Liberty of Waking Phoenix up from his nap, while getting the wipes.  YAY!   

I start rolling out of bed, then notice that there is something on my upper arm!   What is this??? It looked like Sand.    Ryker came back with the wipes.   He had the "Sand" all over his Face.     It smelled sweet and looked light brown.   OH CRAP. My suspicions are 1- I don't think Ryker took a nap and 2- I think he got into something.   

I rush to the Kitchen I was Correct On both 1 and 2.   Tupperware, lots and lots of Tupperware was all over the kitchen floor, complimented by Brown sugar.    Brown sugar Here, brown sugar there, Brown sugar EVERYWHERE.   

after taking in that I had to clean up the sticky mess... I noticed a faint sugary trail of BS ( because that's what it is, is "BS" lol) leading into the living room, then to the back hall, around the corner and into Rykers Room.   JACKPOT- a Dreaded Jackpot.   More BS all over his room, on his fuzzy-ish batman chair all over his carpet, on his bed sticky spoons on the floor, he even filled his sippy cup to the top of brown sugar; and even took the time to screw the lid back on. 

Infuriation.  I was so raging mad, I couldn't even speak and my head was sooo hot.  I put shoes on the boys; packed them up in the car; backed out of the garage;called olive garden ordered food; drove, to calm myself down; picked up my comfort food ( since it was a gift card it was prepaid so its ok that it was on a sunday); then headed home with a breadstick in my mouth.

When I got home.... I realized how Hilarious it was.   Thank goodness for:  good food, good husbands,good parents/in-laws who listen, and crazy kids who help me learn daily.
