The Man and #6

Today – tonight's To Do list is gonna be a strange one… We are currently "rooming" in with #6 for the evening. The hospital here would like to see if the Man and I still "got it"… and by 'IT" I mean our parenting skills.

You'd think that the parents of 5 children.. would have learned SOMETHING in the last few years.. but maybe not. Some people would think we don't learn too fast since we are STILL having children…

Tonight #6's nurse said to me; "I'd like to watch you change his diaper and take his temp." I looked around the room and waited for Ashton Kutcher to jump out and say: "You've been PUNK'd!" but he didn't.. Did I mention that the nurse was the same age as #1…. ON TO the list..

  • 11:00pm Take temp, change diaper, feed #6
  • 2:00am Take temp, change diaper, feed #6 watch nurse draw blood (I won't be watching..)
  • 5:00am Take temp, change diaper, feed #6
  • 8:00am Take temp, change diaper, feed #6
  • Wait the rest of the day for them to test and approve me as a parent…
  • Remind #1 to remove all animals and sanitize the house
  • #2 should arrive sometime in the early am to ride home with #6 in the backseat.
  • Have #2 run into Target and buy the industrial size bottle of hand sanitizer.. the nurses have scared the poo out of me about germs and babies.
  • Before bringing #6 in the house rub hand sanitizer on everything.

Where’s the Target Lady?

Today I thought we would play a little game. Instead of "Where's Waldo", I thought we could play find the Target lady.

where's waldo, target lady, where's target, lady in red, crazy old lady, big glasses

Do you see her? The lady in red…

There she is…

While shopping at Target in Olathe Kansas… #1 and I saw this woman. We thought it was funny how she completely blended in with the "Target Red" backgrounds.

Black Friday and Other Mishaps

Our morning started a little late.. and at Target. Target opened at 4:00am

we arrived at 4:30am.

Someone got a TV or 3..

Starbucks break…

#1… pondering why she got up so early in the am… What she doesn't

know is in just a few minutes she's going to wait at a fabric store for

3 hours to get some fabric cut…. I should have taken photos of Joann Fabrics

this am.. but I was so annoyed, I couldn't bring myself to do it. We arrived

at 7:00am and they were cutting #16's fabric. We IMMEDIATELY

got our own number.. which was #83… no.. that's not a typo.. it's

actually EIGHTY-THREE.

Hobby Lobby which didn't have many people there.. actually had

a policeman watching for .. I'm not sure? Maybe the Craft Mafia?

Here's P*Tricky and #1 .. we hung out for a while in Borders Books.

When P*Tricky is tired.. he's pretty funny. He was really tired about this time.

The strangest thing I saw today was this GLITTER Jesus Bank

at Borders Book Store. It's only 7.99.. and 50% off this weekend..

Black Friday.. It’s not for the tired..

Black Friday… one of the days #1 and I look forward to all year long. We love the bargains, and people watching.. but mostly love the time we get to spend together. We make a list on Thanksgiving Day of all the things we need, and figure out what time we need to be there to get those things.

You didn't really think I was going to show you the list did you?

This Black Friday morning we left the house at 3:45AM and

headed up to Target in Olathe, Kansas. Target was

having a sale on a couple of things we needed and one thing

Patrick needed.

We arrived at Target around 4:30AM. There was already a HUGE

LINE. The white arrow is where the corner of Target starts…

the red arrow is where Patrick and #1 are waiting. The line got

even longer as it got closer to 5:00AM. (When Target opened)

Here's #1 and Patrick waiting with their SUPER COOL bags

Target handed out to the first 500 people in the store.

Here's Patrick loading up "the beast". I highly recommend having Patrick go shopping with you.. why? He loads the car,pushes the cart through the traffic jams (so we can go on ahead and shop).

We shopped at several places.. Target, Old Navy, Avenue, Starbucks, Michael's, Mardel, Hobby Lobby, S Scents, Apple Store, and Costco.

I think when you go to bed as late as we did (12:30AM) and leave as early as we did.. you are pretty tired. That is what I'm going to

blame what happened next on.. being tired. Around lunchtime we

headed to On The Border restaurant. Like most Mexican

restaurants they serve chips and salsa.

Patrick thought the chips were rather large and decided to

karate chop them in the bowl.

Patrick (being exhausted) didn't realize how funny that was to

#1 and I.

He still doesn't realize we are laughing because of his "karate".

I believe he get's it now…

Really.. It was funny.. or maybe we were exhausted and that made

it funny.

Some of our loot.. This year I'm sad to say we did not go to Toys R Us.

We've gone every year.. but this year, we decided there wasn't anything

we needed THAT bad. You see when we go to Toys R Us one of us stands in the already formed check outline.. while the other shops! There is always a line to get into Toys R Us, and a line to check out. This check out line wraps and weaves in and around the store.

I told you she was tired.. She's sleep walking! Rest up #1 you have 364

days until your next Black Friday adventure.
