That's what I get

Just asked Stanky for some ice water. I guess I should have been more specific.

Conversations with Piggy: The Baby Shower

Pig: Momma!  What day is dis?

Me: Saturday.

Pig: Don't we got summin ta dew taday?  Da pawtie? Duh! (insert obnoxious head-waggle & eye rolling)

Me: Yes, the baby shower is at 2:00.

Pig:

Pig: We all gonna be in da bafwoom?  Who gunna be in da shaer?

*Entire family erupts into snorts & giggles

Me: It's not that kind of shower Pigs!  It means everyone brings gifts for the baby.

Pig: Baby Yaksun?  It's  not his burfdey!

Me: The baby hasn't been born yet Pigs.  We bring gifts so his mommy and daddy have nice things for him when he comes home.

Pig: Well.  When it's MY burfdey, I don' wanna take a shower.  I just wanna bouncy house m'kay?

First day of Summer Vay-Cay

Strange things started happening today. 

#1: There was only 1 kid in my bed this morning
#2: I did not have to wake anyone up!
#3: Nobody threw a hissy fit before I left for work
#4: I did not have to make any breakfast/lunch this morning!! Well, except my own, but that's easy.
#5: I actually got to take a nice long shower without being stared at like the jellies at the aquarium.

And then I left for work.  Poor Miss Mandy is bearing the brunt of the summer whines.  Yes, I hear tell they have started already!

Drama woke up in a mood.  Banished himself to the garage to work on a model. 

Stanky doesn't want to eat anything in the house.  Typical.  He's currently killing off brain cells with yet another round of IronMan 2 on the idiot-box.

Piggy got the short stick again.  Brothers ran down the KindleFire battery again before letting him have a turn.  It sucks to be the baby sometimes!

I have just under 2 hours left of work.  What are the chances the meth-monkies will have morphed into sweet children by the time I get home? 

Yeah, I'm not holding my breath either.
