Good Morning Mommy

Woke up this morning to Lorenzo saying "Oh Good Morning Mommy!"....I said "Good morning Benzo and Tater"....Lorenzo said "Oh Hi Mommy!...I got unnerwears on!...Tayshon got unnerwears on...and I need blue juice in blue cup please"....AWWW!!!....my heart burst with emotion!...They did have their underwear on!...Taters were backwards, but on!...So I got their blue juice in a blue cup for Benzo and a green cup for Tater...Lots of Thank yous...then I went into the bathroom...it appeared they both had went potty...due to the pittle on the floor (Benzo) and ALL over the seat (Tater)....but they went!...Then I went into my room(Ive been sleeping on their floor)....THEY UNPACKED A BUNCH OF BOXES!!!!....Little crappers!!!....I said "Um boys?...what did you do in Mommy's room?"...Tayshon ran in and yelled "Toys, Toys, Toys!"...and Benzo came in "Uh Mommy, Mine toys!"....so I explained "boys, we are moving to Grandma's house and we need to leave your toys in the boxes until we get there.  Please leave the boxes alone"....Benzo said "it's ok, it's ok, it's ok. Quit that whinning,  Relax, relax, reeeeeelax Mommy.  Let's play!"...So we shall play!

Benzo's teeth

We went to Sparrow Hospital to have Lorenzo's dental work done.  Due to his "heightened sensitivitydisorder"  they completly put him under and did everything at once....

1. He was determined not to wear their hospital gown, so he put his Thomas the Train shirt back on..

2. Then it was ok because he got to watch cartoons...

                                            3. "Mommy! What is on your head?"

4. "Mommy, I go HOME?...OK?"

                                            5. Made a friend...Just dont Touch my marker

6. Getting ready to be put under...I struggled to hold it together, but he was a trooper..

                   7. Tayshon did a great job waiting for Beebo....

                                  8.  Poor guy had a hard time waking up....

9. Got home and he kept looking in the mirror at his teeth...Poor Guy...He brushed them 3 times trying to get the silver off!

                                  10.  Apparently the tylenol and motrin combo kicked in....

Poor Benzo woke up twice in the night telling me his teeth hurt him...Then he struggled at daycare today so I had to call Aunt Dana to the rescue...Mommy will just stay home for a couple days till my lil man feels better....Hopefully this is the only time he will have to endure all that nonsense!...Glad I am the one they call "Mommy"...

Maxadint!

Yesterday Tayshon and Lorenzo were jumping on their trampoline...Lorenzo says "Um Tayshon you have a maxadint? Dont pee pee in your unnerwears!"...Tayshon replies with a simple "No"...Lorenzo said "Um yeah Tayshon you pee peed in your unnerwears"...Tater "No"...So I said "Tayshon do you need to go potty?"..."NO!"...So I took his hand and walked him to the bathroom...I helped him take off his wet "unnerwears"....and he said "UH OH accident!"...LOL...I said "its ok Tater, next time you will make it to the potty"..He said "yeah potty chair Mommy!"...

He is getting it.  I can handle 1 "maxadint' a day...Ah the joys of potty training....

The feeling of Love

I want to remember all of the things my boys do to make this mommy feel loved!...

Every morning and every night before bed I say to them "I love you guys soooo much"...and I always get Benzo "Love you so much Mommy" and Tater "Blove boo Mommy"....I cant express the feeling of hearing that...anytime I tell them I love you I ALWAYS get one back!...

If I appear upset Benzo will say "are you ok Mommy?..Its ok, Its ok, Its ok"...until I smile and say 'Thank you Benzo, Mommy is ok"...My comforter....

If I tell the boys "No more fighting, THAT'S ENOUGH!"...Tater will come to me and say "Mommy nuggle?"...and climb into my lap as if to say "ok mommy we will quit for 33 seconds"...LOL...My sneaky innocent...

Somedays I forget how blessed I am to have TWO healthy boys (for the most part)...and every so often I think they can sense that I need a reminder...They snuggle me and hug me and kiss me and lick my face like a puppy!...They are pretty well behaved for the most part...LOL!...I have my moments when I just cant take anymore slapping or biting...I holler at them and they try their hardest to stop for a moment...

Sometimes I take the trains for granted...I really don not love to play trains....Benzo will try to convince me otherwise..."Mommy play trains?..Mommy LOVES trains!...Mommy sit play trains?"...But whenever he asks I sit on the floor at the train table and play...because one day he isnt going to want his Mommy to play anymore...one day my boys will be "too cool" to hang with mom...

Sometimes when I lay down with Tater at night and he rubs and rubs and rubs and rubs my face until it feels like he has rubbed a hole in my cheek...I get irritated...but I never say anything to him...I just let him rub my face...because one day before I know it...He wont want me to lay with him until he falls asleep...he wont need the comfort of rubbing my cheek to help him fall asleep....one day my baby is going to "need that"....

So I will take all of the feelings of being loved I can get for now because one day my "Lil Men" are going to be "grown men" and wont need me for the little things...

I LOVE my boys with ALL of my heart...and I can feel they love me with all of theirs...Thank God!

I was thinkin

This morning....We were walking out the door and Benzo said "Uh Mommy, I was thinkin cancakes and sausage then aunt Dana and Chris buddy house"....I said "yeah Benzo we can get cancakes and sausage"...he said "Uh mommy, I was thinkin Aunt Dana house?"...LOL...So I stopped by Mandys house this morning on the way to daycare and Benzo said "yeah mom I will stay here..OK?"...And Tater said 'NO GRANDMASSSSSSSSSSSSS!"

too many boo boos!

Yesterday the boys were at Granny's and Tater cut his foot on a tack strip...and he has been limping around...then today Benzo kept opening the sliding glass door...The last time I shut it his poor lil finger was in it!!...now everytime he bends it he says it hurts!....My poor babies!!

I not Stinky

Its tubby time....
"Lorenzo and Tayshon, come on guys lets take a tubby.  You guys need to wash your stinky butts!"...Tater comes running trying to rip his "diber" off and Lorenzo yells from his room "Um no Mommy, I not stinky!..Tayshon you stinky!"...So I said "come on Lorenzo you too"....he yells "ok one minute Mommy"....and 5 minutes later..."Lorenzo get in here!"...."OK PINE MOM, I COMING!"....and into the tubby they go!

Bumber Party

Tayshon decided we should have a bumber party last night...So I piled the blankets on the floor and turned on "llama" and we all layed down...naturally for the next 40 mins, the boys had to wiggle around, switch spots, readjust the blankets, trade pillows, jump on my stomach a few times, and have a couple slap each other sessions...but finally they snuggled up and we all said "I love you" and I thought we were off to sleep...Then Lorenzo noticied the book shelf next to him..so we spent the next 1/2 hour reading books...No big deal that the light were off...I know Mr. Brown can Moo by heart...LOL...all in all it was a nice "Bumber Party"
