This Week's Heart Attacks


If you've read this before...I added some...the week is not over...

1. I thought Ethan ran away again. We were on our way out the door and no Ethan. Dallen was even in the backyard with him and he vanished! I sent the boys around the block. I walked through the backyard and heard rocks moving...down low...Ethan was in the window well (which has a cover on it)!!! The little stinker moved the window well enough to fit through and JUMPED down the window well! Keep in mind this is not a shallow window well!!! He just thought it was cool I made him climb back up the ladder! John will be bolting the window well cover on!

2. The boys are playing upstairs. I am walking upstairs to change the laundry. The laundry room faces the top of the stairs. To my surprise as I am walking up the stairs the washing machine lid pops open and there is Ethan's smiling face!! "Mom, I'm just sitting in here." he says.

3. John and I are getting ready to run some errands. We told Ethan to find his shoes. He walks upstairs to get them. We here this enormous CRASH. John runs upstairs to find Ethan has pulled his dresser drawers out and climed up his dresser causing the whole thing to fall over! He says, "I was trying to get my socks..." Thank goodness he wasn't hurt! The dresser is now BOLTED to the wall!

4. I am waiting in line at the Sonic drive-thru (diet coke and mozarella sticks were calling out to me). Ethan took off his shoes, used his toes to roll down the window, and proceeded to throw his shoes out the window. Why? Because he saw a fly and wanted to squish it....

Ok, seriously, that look is PRICELESS! Shall I just start calling Ethan "Riley"?! Or wait, wasn't it that we called Riley "Dallen"?! The washing machine one is the BEST! Aren't you glad you're having a girl?!!

I didn't know you were pregnant! Congratulations (a bit late). A friend of mine just had a baby today.

Hah! Thanks for cheering up my day! I have to say, I've never had to retrieve shoes that were thrown outside of the car! Knock on wood though, nothing surprises me anymore!
