Teaching my children to question authority, except mine.

A good laugh

August23

My friend, Priscilla, forwarded this to me today. If you need a good laugh, check out this e-bay auction. The auction has ended so no fear that you may buy something just because you click on the link. I want to take this woman out for a drink! What a hoot!

In other news today, Sabrina and I had lunch with the lovely Melanie and Pilar at the mall food court today. No photos – never got my camera out. But it was great fun meeting them! Unfortunately the play area was closed because apparently a child got sick so violently that they had to close the play area for complete sanitizing for the rest of the day.

And for daddy, who is away on business and hasn’t seen Sabrina sign “more” yet.

Yesterday at lunch:

And to prove it wasn’t a fluke – today at breakfast:

    Hey Michelle, I was hoping you would check in from Texas! 🙂 I continue to be SO EXCITED for you & Steve! Have a fabulous weekend!

    I am tearing up! How wonderful for you both. I am so glad you were both there to receive the call. It is a wonderful day!

    Is that a bib? Or are you so overwhelmed with Steve being gone that you forgot to change your child’s clothes?

    (not like I know from experience or anything)

    and what are these indoor play areas of which you speak? we have no such thing at my snooty mall

  11. On August 23rd, 2007 at 3:07 pm admin Says:

    Yes it is a bib…and yes I feed my kid 1/2 naked – what of it? LOL. She has a new habit of wiping the back of her hand across her food covered mouth and then rubbing said hand all over her – hair, clothes, high chair, etc. So, I undress her before she eats a lot of the time.

  12. On August 23rd, 2007 at 3:08 pm admin Says:

    And actually, now that I look at the photos, they both might be breakfast this morning. Yesterday’s lunch “more” photos may not have made the cut. Oops.

    hee hee…. Ah yes, the smear everything, everywhere…. Sadly, it’s not a habit that seems to go away quickly.

    And can she come and teach Gabriella the “proper” sign for more? She has her own version and I can’t get her to change it. All done is only half of it too. Just the hands up part. They never turn down.

  14. On August 23rd, 2007 at 3:32 pm Julie Lussier Says:

    but she has the same clothes on? oh, just read above, a bib. humm.

    she does “more” really well. Maybe you guys could stop here in TX and teach Matthew cuz he does his own version of “more”.

    hugs —

    p.s. DANG she is sticken cute!

    I like that second pic – she’s like, “I’m so good at this signing thing, I can do it with my eyes closed!”

  16. On August 23rd, 2007 at 5:15 pm DD Says:

    As I was reading the ebay description I was thinking to myself that she definitely has to have a blog. And I was right.

    You have a hundred million clothes but only one bib? Oh, honey. Sabrina’s signing for more bibs, not more food. How are we to know it’s the next day unless you get her a Days of the Week Bibs set.

    OMG! Now I know how to successfully sell stuff on ebay. She is hysterical!

  18. On August 23rd, 2007 at 5:44 pm carla Says:

    SHE IS SO CUTE.

    and now Im obsessed with “dang. how bad must that child have gotten sick to have the play area closed like that”

    ahhh the visual 🙂

    C.

    ps–loved that Pris. email as well.

    LOL, ewwwwww, and awwwwww. (on the ebay, violently sick kid in the play area, and “more” signing, respectively…

    (Kathelyn wont sign “more” for anything. Can Sabrina please come to SC to teach her????????)

    OMGOSH, I am ON the floor laughing my head off after reading that ebay auction. That lady more than deserves a drink or the high amount those pokemon cards sold for!! TOOOOO funny. Thank you for sharing as I really needed a good laugh!

  21. On August 24th, 2007 at 5:07 pm Leigh Says:

    OK the ebay thing is hysterical… I did “the mall” two days ago with my three in (for us) what seemed like 3000 degree heat! I’d def rather have my teeth pulled from my head than do the mall with kiddos….. NOT that they’re bad..it’s just so much easier to do online… My dd who is Hyperlexic (obsessed with letters /numbers) had to be pried from the Victoria Secret Window where “SEXY” was written in a square and had flashing lights around it.. ! Anyway, thanks for sharing…. needed the laugh!!

    I. Hate. Hot. You would never catch me living in the south.

    I need Sabrina to come and teach P’ito that sign. He seems pretty oblivious to our attempts at signing. Mostly he just screams.
