TGIF...

It was brought to my attention that I have failed my kids!

They had no idea what T.G.I.F means...

Oh.My.Goodness!

The girls and I were riding in the car

I don't remember how it came up but I said,

"T.G.I.F"

Lilly responds with,

"What is Gele-i-f"

I thought for a second (and giggled)

and thought maybe she didn't understand me

so I repeated myself

"I said T.G.I.F"

To that they said, "What's that?"

Oh. My.

Have I taught my children NOTHING in life??

Fridays were a big deal as a kid

not because it was Friday

or the weekend

but there was Friday Night T.V....TGIF!

Full House

America's Funniest Home Videos

(When Bob Saget was host!)

Steve Urkle

(What's the name of that show??)

I know that there were others that came on too,

but man, as a kid I loved those shows

So I officially schooled my girls in what TGIF means!

Whew...disaster averted! HA!

More of my Mad Parenting Skills...

My girls each have a water bottle exactly like the one above.

Madelyn uses her's for soccer practice & games

Lilly uses her's for whatever

So I have to keep a close eye on what she puts in it

It's not just water

Imagine milk just a few days old...

ewe!

We've discovered that these water bottles make a "puffing" noise when squeezed

Imagine an O2 puff

or the puff of air that they shoot in your eye at the eye Dr.

Or maybe that's just me

cause I'm so darn blind

Either way

When you squeeze this water bottle and it "puffs" air

Water rarely comes out of it

Until I do it

Lilly and I were playing around the other night

She was pretending to squirt me with the bottle

making those "puffs of air"

So "mommy" returns

I ask her for the bottle so I can go wash it

Thankfully it's just water....and not milk

So I turn in the hallway and act like I'm  going to squirt her

but only making a "puff"

Yeah...not so much

I'm pretty certain that every ounce of water that was in there

shot right out and into Lilly's eye!

I managed to make her cry for a good 10 minutes

Nice!
