*grins*

Heh...these stories...are....priceless . He he he....

I needed that laugh .

If my parents have stories to share...they haven't yet. Maybe they're waiting for me to get a gf. As of now...they'll be waiting for a long time...heh.

Cort my man, they aren't waiting for a girl friend, their waiting for you to have children so they can embarrass the hell out of you to them! That's the first law of parenting. Getting even with the kids!

Janet,

They won't if they know what is good for them . LOL!

*pauses*

Yeah know...they had a great opportunity to tell some of those stories when I was dating Amy....(ugh)...but they didn't. Course, *winces*, I suspect we gave them some good stories to tell others...lol.


*turns to Ross*

Well, buddy, if that's what they are waiting for...they're going to be waiting a long freekin' time...because I sorta need a girlfriend/wife to have kids.....LOL.... *sighs*

Jean,
The problem is, my son's in a fraternity and I suspect he hasn't outgrown it.

Your son is quite a cutie! Too bad my daughter is dating someone!

One of the stories my mother likes to pull out does not have to do with potty training or neckedness. When I was little I would pretend to nurse my dolls (my little brother nursed, so I knew that was how to feed a baby). One day I'm in the back of the van "nursing" my doll when I suddenly throw her to the front of the van yelling "Don't bite!" Makes you wonder what my mom did with my brother...

kids, kids, kids

kids, kids, kids

I don't have any kids of my own but a niece and nephew do just fine for teaching all the naughty tricks that i can't remember doing myself when i was a kid. There where 5 of us kids including my brother and i who where twins so i'd imagine we did a few things to our parents dismay.

But those are htings we forget and our parents tease us about now. And my neice and nephew do many things that have us just rollin on the floor gigglin about.

But I do bet that Katie is the most charmin little girl in those parts and that she'll be a sweet one to show off in later days!!

Thanks, Erica. I just hope she is keeping her clothes on by then and isn't quite the little exhibitionist she is now.

Niki, I died laughing...........little slow tonight, so I had to read through it a couple of times, and then it hit me! Too funny! Have you asked your mom about that one recently???? Would love to know the answer she gives you.

Take care and God bless................

Thinking back............

Thinking back............

Katie has always been an exhibitionist. Erica, your post got me to thinking (dangerous, I know! ) and Katie really has always been a little exhibitionist. I was cleaning out my "sent mailbox" the other day and ran across this old post (two years ago, July 2002) to a pediatric heart group for parents of kids with heart defects..........just thought I would share it below. Keep in mind it is from two years ago. Last one for a while, I promise. We are bugging out of here to go to the beach for a week if Don's leave doesn't get cancelled. Take care, J.

Hey Gang,

I can't help myself - I have to share a Katie funny. Katie has been
infatuated with bandaids as of late. She takes great joy in helping to pick
out and apply a bandaid to even a hint of a scratch. She even insisted on
having a bandaid to cover up a red ink mark on her leg from a pen that she
had gotten hold of. Well, yesterday we were in the bathroom, and I was
picking up all the toys from her bath..........I swear I only took my eyes
off of her for a few seconds, but when I looked up........ lo and behold,
Katie's legs were covered in my pantiliners (YES! they were new ones!). She
had managed to get the backs off, stuck them up and down her legs, and was really quite pleased with herself. She pranced around the house admiring her new "bandaids" for an hour before I could convince her to take them off............

In the meantime, unfortunately for me, the UPS guy had come to the door and was somewhat taken aback by Katie in her pantiliners, as discerned from his wide-eyed gaping stare. I just laughed, turned 5 shades of red, mumbled something about "the attack of the pantiliners" and "kids will be kids," and shut the door as quickly as possible. Oh, well, I'm sure he'll recover from it ("Honey, you won't believe what I saw at work today!"), 'cuz I've been laughing about it ever since. Anyway, just one more cabinet I have to "Katie-proof."

Take care and God bless,

You seriously need to write a book about raising this child!

Love It!

Love It!

Janet,
I just love this story. I thought for sure you were going to say that Katie ended up going potty right there on top of the box. Kids are so precious.
I am potty training my 2 year old (Faith) right now. Her older sister, Kristen, just graduated preschool this year. We were at her last day preschool picnic and right in the middle of the potato sack race, Faith decides she has to go potty and pulls down her pants and pull-up right there in the middle of the lawn. I was looking the other direction at Kristen and when I quickly turned around other mothers were laughing and there Faith stood in all her glory. "I gotta go potty Mom". I didn't get too ambarrassed because there were mothers everywhere with small children. They all knew exactly what it was like. That is my potty story for right now. I'm sure as Faith continues on her potty journey there will be plenty more.

Take Care!
