trick and treat

epic fail

anatomy one, oh, one

so both children are in potty training mode. full time. and it's going very well. thank. god. except will thinks that just because he pooped on the potty once it's good enough. and continues to wait until nap time. when he has a training pant on. that cost about ninety-seven dollars apiece. to take a crap. anyway, usually both go into the bathroom at the same time and wait for one another. and, at times, strike up a little conversation. this particular day i wished i had the video camera.

will [sitting on the potty exercising the muscle that makes his penis go up and down. it's a new trick he learned at that very moment. and he thinks it's hilarious. and the more he laughs the more his penis is going up and down.]: look it!

sophie [now with her face down in the potty. about two inches from will's penis. and laughing.]: what are you doing?!

will [still laughing. hysterically. as his penis keeps bouncing all over]: look it!

this goes on for several minutes. and then sophie decides to blow on will's penis. which makes them laugh even more. and causes me to just about pee my pants.

then, out of the blue, sophie looks down at herself: where's my penis?

me: you don't have one. you have a vagina.

will: yeah, soph, you have a vagina.

sophie [looking down again]: oh. my penis musta fallen off. i just have two bahginas.

hands on

i must say that lately i have been thinking we should have named our son johnson. so i can tell him to stop playing with himself. seriously.

we're not worthy

[1] so excited to get the chance to go to a game in green bay. even if it was against the lions. [2] the lions suck so bad their fans want hockey players on the team. they don't even care if they're retired. anything has to be better. [3] i wish we had taken photos of all of the packer mobiles. they were priceless. all of them. [4] drum line. they. were. awesome. [5] i also wish we could have taken a photo of all of the crazy attire we saw this day. i hadn't ever seen a cheesehead bra. autographed by one mark chmura. like there was any doubt. [6] view from our awesome free seats. [7] this guy sat right in front of us. the economy is bad. but there isn't anything duct tape can't fix. red green would be proud. [7] they almost got us. it would have been our luck to travel to green bay. and get beat by the lions. even if they had, the experience was all worth it.
