Rule #151

Rule #151 (for those in business suits at Qdoba):  If I were you, I wouldn’t sit at the table behind my toddler.  There’s a good chance he will rub quesadilla on your nice suit.

Rule #139

Rule #139:  Please do not throw ketchup packets and pickles at our new friends.  At least wait until we know them better.

Rule #118

Rule #118:  Apparently the number of times you tell your child to “Be Careful” is proportional to how likely he is to need stitches.  On a weekend.  When Mommy is out of town.

Day 4

When I was out of town a few weekends ago, Gavin fell into the wooden part of our rocking chair.  Meanest Daddy did a great job handling the 6 stitches (with the other 2 kids in tow) at the urgent care clinic.  Stitches were removed last week, and Gavin is healing nicely.  I am almost recovered from being gone when my kid got hurt.  😦

Rule #116

Rule #116:  That little space between the couch & the corner of the wall… It’s not a garbage can. Or a toy box. Or a hamper. Or book drop.  Or a place for the remote.
