She got me...

Me, to the kiddos while driving: "The NEXT PERSON who asks me if we're going to the Disney Store is going straight home and to bed for the rest of the day!!!!"

Wife: "Hey Erik, are we going to the Disney Store???"

Gotta play by the rules

Me: "OK, we're playing the Quiet Game 'til we get to the store!"

Madeline: "What's the Quiet Game?"

Me: "You're out!"

In this house, we take "safe pooping" VERY seriously!


With a baseball bat!

*Sigh* - The moment all parents fear... we dread this day unlike any other. Weddings, graduations, first dates, first ride on a bike, etc. None compare to this. 

Yes, my kiddos finally discovered "Peanut Butter Jelly Time" and are singing it ad nauseum.

Spelling bee

Me: Rachael, how do you spell "Rachael"?
Rachael: "R-a-c-h-a-e-l"
Me: Good! How do you spell "Ryan"?
Rachael: "R-y-a-n"
Me: Good! How do you spell "Erik"?
Rachael: "D-a-d-d-y"
Me: Awwwww... how do you spell "Michelle"?
Rachael: I don't know. Is that Mommy?

Hitchcock would've been proud...

Birds had built a nest on a wreath on our front door. I disposed of that nest late last night (don't worry, animal lovers, it wasn't completed and no eggs). 

This morning, my car was subject to their method of revenge. And, I swear, they all must've gorged on Mexican food beforehand.

My kids WILL be cool... oh, yes
