A couple weeks ago, the kids and I were on our way home from work/daycare and Kaiden decided to ask me how babies come out of their mommy’s tummies.  I sat there for a second, silent, thinking “Shit, how am I going to answer this, she is only four!”  She continued:

KAIDEN:
“How did I get out of your tummy Mommy?”

ME:
“Well, I pushed and pushed and you finally just came out.” 

KAIDEN:
“Out where, Mommy?”

ME:
“Well, you came out of Mommy’s tootie”
Tootie = what Kaiden calls her business.

KAIDEN: *beginning to cry and get upset*
“That is disgusting mommy, don’t you EVER say that I came out of a tootie.  I can’t believe you would say that.  It is so disgusting!”

ME:
“Okay, sorry, but it’s the truth.”

So, since this conversation took place, Kaiden has brought up the subject a bazillion times, and each time she tries to word things differently so that I will tell her that babies are born some other way.  She has started in with God and Jesus creating everyone.  She has brought up the stork – EVERYTHING.  Each time we get right back to how a baby is really born and she says “Don’t even say that I came out of a tootie again mommy!”  Whenever we talk about it, she starts to gag (really) and becomes overwhelmed with disgust.  She refuses to believe that a baby would come out of a mommy that way.  It has become the funniest conversation that we have – on a daily basis!!!  Oh the power of truth!

A collection of thoughts and other stuff not worthy of a full post.

This week I got really sunburned.  Because I go into the tanning booth naked, my boobs/nipples also got sunburned.  When I get a sunburn, I get the chills the whole time.  When I get the chills, my nipples get hard.  Hard sunburned nipples = excrutiating pain!

This morning, before Kaiden’s bath, she was running around the house naked.  She apparently had to use the bathroom during this naked time, but did not feel the need to wipe, or call someone to wipe her.  She then ran from room to room jumping around on all the beds, leaving little shit spots everywhere her little bottom landed.  I spent the day stripping beds and washing sheets.

My cat has got some serious, serious dreadlocks going on - I really need to get someone to help hold her down so that I can cut/shave them out!

My son likes saying “Uh-Oh” so much that he has started destroying things on purpose, just to say it and then clap at himself and scream “Yay.”

I swear I buy hangars ALL THE TIME, and yet I never have enough in this house to hang up all the clothes?

I found this while reading someone’s blog.  Discuss amongst yourselves!  If you are a female, would you use this?

IT’S HERE, IT’S HERE!

The new Treo 700w with Windows Mobile.  I want one of these SO BAD I CAN TASTE IT!  I had the Treo 650 and LOVED it, but could not get the damn thing to sync right with my exchange server at work because of the Palm operating system, etc. etc., and had to give it up for something that was Windows based.

Right now they are only being offered through Verizon - which totally sucks, because my account is with Sprint.  Sprint has always been the first to get the Treo’s in the past, and really screwed up by not being first this time.  Hopefully, they will have it within the next few months - time to start saving my money!
