A Bit Scatter-Brained

It has been so long since I blogged last, until today, and I had all sorts of things that I was going blog, but then I went off on a tangent and forgot half the things I was going to say.

I already mentioned that Dakota stayed home from daycare on Friday because he was sick. What I failed to mention, was that Friday night, Joey threw up in our bed again. Then I carried him to the bathroom where he threw up again on me, and a third time in the sink. This time, I did the clean up. I don't know where the strength came from, and even though I was gagging, I made it through. Nick was so proud of me. While the boys and I were at church on Sunday, Nick went through the house and did a thorough cleaning of every hard surface.

Another funny thing that happened while shopping at Costco. We usually get our hamburger at Costco, and get a six-pound (and change, there is never one that is an even poundage.) pack that we freeze in one-pound packages. So Nick picks out the hamburger and says, "Wow! How lucky is that. This one is exactly six...." (At this point, I think he is going to say that it is exactly six pounds.) "point three pounds!" Six point three!?!? Wouldn't that be the same as saying 'exactly six point one-seven, or six point two-four'? Now, I could understand 'exactly six point five' as it is a semi-even weight. But six point three? I laughed so hard. I know he meant that it was as close to an even six pounds as we have seen before, but still, I found how he said it so funny.
It snowed again today, about two inches. So I bundled Joey up and sent him out to shovel the walk with Daddy. He has been waiting all year to be able to help Daddy shovel the walk again. (I must say that I think Joey looks like Jacob in this picture!)
This year, he did a much better job of taking the snow off the walk and throwing it on the side, rather than taking snow from the side and putting it on the walk. He had lots of fun

Well, I better spend some time with the boys before I put them to bed. Then I have got dinner dishes to clean. Have a good night.

Late edit: While I was getting ready for church, I put mousse in my hair and was blow-drying it while hanging my head upside down. As I came back up, my hair looked big and full, as it is supposed to when adding a volumizing mousse. Joey looked at me and said, "You look like a lion!"
