Not the kid y'all! The cart! We would never have paid three whole dollars for that Buddy Snickums. He came free. And plus, now that we've trained him pretty good, we figure his value has increased. I mean, not that we need the money anymore since we now have TWO WORKING PARENTS around here. See, things are looking up!
Well, it's been a week exactly since my last post and that may be the norm from here on out. I have a five-day-a-week job now teaching and as a result, I have much less free time. But so far so good!
Today we woke up to a little dusting of snow and some MUCH lower temperatures, so of course we immediately went out into the lovely weather following The Battle of Mittens. He can push that cart all the way down to our mailbox and back. OK, maybe not all the way back. Usually I end up carrying him and the cart, but we're working on it.
And now, a lesson:
HOW TO EAT LEFTOVER SPAGHETTI WITHOUT SAUCE:
First, lean your head WAY down into the bowl and attempt to grab the noodles with your teeth while simultaneously pushing with your hand:
Since this is not likely to be all that successful, then you should lift your head up a bit and get both hands in there:
Third, sit all the way up so that many of the noodles come out of the bowl in one big clump ... continue stuffing them into your mouth:
Finally, withdraw your hand so that most of the spaghetti drops down into your lap. Don't worry, mom will come along at some point and pluck up every noodle and stick it right back in your bowl so you can start over.
