Did you hear the one about? No never mind I can't ever remember the end to jokes (well at least the non-dirty ones.)
Let me tell you about our weekend. Britt and I took the kids to the outlet mall - killing time waiting for RC to finish his bike ride - raising money for the homeless. Here's a picture of all the riders.
(RC is in the Yellow shirt - hehehehe)..

Anyway while we are at the outlet mall - BTW note if you are ever designing a Children's Clothes Store - please make sure all walk ways are big enough to push a double stroller (heck I would have been happy if they were wide enough for a single) between the racks of clothes. After being in 2 stores and the kids being slapped in the face by low hanging clothes - we found the Carter store - so I sent Brittney in to look around while I had Kailey in the front pack, Andrew in the stroller and the two older boys are climbing a Mountain (okay okay to you and me it would ahve been a small mound of dirt ....but hey think like a boy!). A man is sitting outside the store watching his little boy while wife is shopping. I call the boys to come back over to me (they had gotten to the other side of the mountain and were climbing on top of the covering the pump for the fountain and I could see the lid bow under the weight and Jessica McClure popped into my head....so I called them back.) The man sitting there with his son looked up at me about the time the boys made it to me and said "You are through having kids aren't you?" I'm sure my face showed the shock.....I said "They're my grandkids" "Well they are through aren't they?" was his response........don't get me wrong they already have decided on "Four and no more" but what business is that of this stranger? What gives him the right to say anything to me or even to judge us in that way?.

On a lighter side.............I went to the credit union on Valentine's Day, as I was walking in a gentleman came in before me carrying a HUGE teddy bear (that played music when you pressed the palm of his left hand) holding a big box of chocolate and tied to him was two HUGH HUGE HUGE Dolphin balloons Kissing - tails hooked forming the shape of a HEART and 4 normal size heart balloons. I thought WOW what a lucky girl (actually following that thought I went to - for all that money she could have had diamonds - hehehe) Anyway he walks up to teller @ a closed window gives it to her and visits for a second and says he will let her get back to work. After she assured him she still had 15 minutes left of her lunch - he leaned against the window and they began to talk...........just as I was called up to the "next opened window" which was beside where the couple were talking I noticed a man walking in carrying a small box of candy and 3 normal size balloons - and thought that is so much more like it! He walks up to the couple that are visiting and hands the same girl his gift wishes her a Happy V-day and walks away. The first guy just watches the exchange and then after guy #2 leaves he goes back to talking. I commented to my teller - wow that could have been ugly and she said "At least I know who sent me my V present" she had 3 red roses. All I could think of was "man that could have been UGLY really quick!"
Did I tell you my hunny is coming home for the weekend? Here it is only Monday and I think the week is moving too slow already!
