How do you get a Kleenex to dance?
Put a little boogy in it!
or how about this one?
“Men should be like Kleenex, soft, strong and disposable.”
Braysen decided to raid the Kleenex box while I was getting ready for work earlier this week. I think he got at least ½ the box out on the floor before I took it away and made him a very grumpy little man! You’ll see in some of the pics that he actually puts the Kleenex up to his nose and blows out. He saw his daddy doing it last month or so ago and actually does pretty well at blowing his snot out into it. Sometimes he grabs paper towels, napkins, toilet paper and just blows ..even with no snot in his nose. Such a funny lil kiddo!

Today he scared the sh** out of me. I was upstairs getting ready for work and I had taken him up with me to change his diaper but I guess I didn’t latch the gate (when have I forgotten to latch the gate? I mean I ALWAYS do it!!) Who knows what went on in my mind but I forgot. I came out of the bedroom and am calling his name because it’s soooo quiet and this is very rare folks! I look over and the gates open, my heart races and I look down the stairs and there he is backing down all slow like and almost all the way down to the bottom. By the time I got to him he was at the bottom gate. WHEW, I can’t even tell you how happy I was that he actually went down backwards and didn’t fall. I was scared to death….mom without a brain award goes to me that morning!
I started Yoga last week and LOVE LOVE LOVE it! I am taking it as a “class” for credit even. Guess I’m officially back in school, if you want to call it that. I actually need (3) credits from this area - HHP: Health and Human Performance so figured why not. It was a cheap $50 course for me and is until August plus it is something I’ve wanted to do for a long time. Yoga is much more intense then I thought it would be though and definitely more of a workout then the relaxing side I thought it would be. I realize I also that I haven’t completely lost my flexiblity but hopefully that and my balance will improve. The poses we did today were brutal but it seemed like I finally was figuring out the poses, flow and where my body position should be.
Because of Yoga my hours have been completely wierd, plus my boss has been trying to use up her well needed vacation time since campus is kind of quiet. I did get to take guppyman to the pool today before putting him down for his afternoon nap. He went underwater about 6 times and only 2 of them I counted 1,2,3 and put him under a bit. The other times he dunks his own head or face down and even was reaching under for the diving stick I had in my hand. He’s going to be a fish yet!! He gets so happy in the water and he does this goofy frog / dolphin lunge kick thing when you hold him under his belly. It’s so damn cute…what a true guppy!
