Something Miraculous...

I had completely forgotten to post this image below until I saw that I had saved it to my desktop...my friend Linda had sent this card for my birthday and honestly I must've looked at it 20 times and smiled...I LOVE it...I love the mess, I love how the random kids are strewn about on the floor, in the cupboards, in the microwave, in the refrigerator...and that the dog is eating leftovers...and lastly, that the mom is pregnant and going to be adding another one into the chaos...on the inside of the card it said: Everyday at your house is a party!  So I guess having lots of kids just means parties everyday! =)




I digress...I think I've mentioned a time or two before that girls are just crazy...I've always known we were...I just didn't think it started at like 3 years of age...so I'm now going on about 2 years worth of drama and craziness with Ayris already...Here is just a small/random example of what I'm talking about:

Chris:  Are you ready to take your shower Ayris?
Ayris:  No, I need to talk to Mommy alone first.

Ayris and I go upstairs...

Ayris:  My life just really isn't going good right now.
Me:  Why not?
Ayris:  Because you yell at me and I get into trouble.
Me:  Wait...what?  Just yesterday when we were taking a bath you told me that I was your favorite person because I played games with you and took baths with you and watched movies with you instead of doing as much of the dirty work (cleaning, laundry, etc) as I used to.  Where is this coming from?  I haven't even yelled at you today...you've been upstairs with Daddy all day long???
Ayris:  Well sometimes you yell at me.
Me:  Yeah, sometimes I do...but that isn't today so why is your life not good right now?  It'd be like me telling you that you were being bad today when, in fact, you weren't but then saying that sometimes you do act badly.
Ayris:  Well I just don't know how to be nice!

Seriously....what the heck?!? We haven't even seen each other most of the day because she's been hanging out with Chris the entire day...and now her life is crap because of the fact that in the past she has gotten into trouble?  Aahhhh!

This blog post really was just intended to be a mishmash so I figured I'd post January's damnyouautocorrect.com's favorites...Chris just the other day was saying that he might like to get a smartphone when his contract was up...I asked him to think about if he'd really use it because if we were going to pay $30 extra a month just to have a smartphone, I wanted it to be worth it...well Verizon just got the Iphone 4 and with the autocorrect feature...just reading some of these have made me think autocorrect musings might be worth it alone! =)  And this first one says Michelle, but it's not me...we don't have these phones...it's just the name of whoever submitted it to the website...and most of these are vulgar...but that's what makes them funny...because the people weren't intending them to be that way...
