(2013) Dylan and Lily are going to watch a Lego Batman movie and they want me to get out the air mattress for them to lay on while they watch. Lil just came running into my room and said, "Mom! We need to get the air mattress all bloated up!"
True and funny stories from the lighter side of raising my sons and daughter. As the Southern mama of this crew, I'm usually somewhere between "Bless your hearts!" and "Y'all act like you got some sense!" If we ever need to find our way home, we just follow the trail of red clay and glitter.

Yogurt
(2013) I am definitely raising a Southern girl! I just asked Lily Claire what she wanted for a snack and she answered, "Yo-Grits", which is what she thought was the name for "yogurt." Love it!
Cruel
(2013) I am cracking up at Brandon because he is OUTRAGED that ESPN is showing some international spelling bee instead of baseball. A cruel twist of fate for a 15 year old boy stuck at home this evening! Hahahahaha!!!

Bonfire
Seriously considering burning all the dirty laundry in a bonfire in the backyard rathering than doing it all today! No one would notice a twenty foot burning pile of cloth in my backyard, would they?!!!
Gerbil
(2013) Lily just asked me if she could have a JEWEL-BALL. ???? Finally realized she was trying to say GERBIL! I think the Jewel-Ball is a better option.

Lipstick
(2013) So I delievered some news to Lily Claire last night that was followed by ten minutes of uproarious squealing, jumping, twirling, and clapping with delight. Did I tell her we had won the lottery?! No. Did I tell her we were going to Disney World?! No. Did I tell her she could wear pink lipstick to her ballet recital tonight? Yes! It was a major lipstick celebration at our house. :)
Concert
I signed up for this site called "Bandsintown" that tracks when music groups that you like are going to be in town doing concerts. It automatically gets information from your Itunes playlists and puts those artists in a tracking system for you. It then gave me some suggestions for some other groups I might want to see in concert based on my current favorites. I had to crack up when it suggested that I be notified when GENE KELLY was coming in concert! That concert would be quite a marvel since he DIED in 1996!! I DEFINITELY want to know about THAT concert so I can be the first to get tickets!

Baconator
(2016) ONLY for her 16 year old son would a true Southern woman ever be caught dead ordering something at Wendys called a TRIPLE BACON-ATOR BURGER with extra bacon, gynormous supersized fries, and enough sweet tea to fill a bathtub! Even the lady at the counter was laughing as I stood there ALONE in my pink sweater and pearls ordering that monstrosity!!! I must have said "It's for my son" eighteen times!!!! Next time he's getting a side salad and a diet coke.

Weights
(2019) Lily was using some of Skeet’s handheld weights this evening. After about ten minutes of pumping the weights up and down, she informed me that her arms were now very “musculent.” 😂😂😂
