sticky sticky

When the husband yelled “Mama!” this afternoon I knew something was wrong. I asked what was the matter and he pointed the center table to me. I then realized that it had something to do with the little man. Who else would put stickers on the wood table? I tried to clean the mess but the adhesive was pretty good which means I will have to scrub the table (how I will do that without scratching it, beats me) to get rid of the adhesive and some paper that stuck to it. Well, it was partly  my fault. You see, I underestimated him. When I got free stickers from the mail (from Disney) I showed it to the little man and decided to give it to him since he knows Mickey and the gang. It did not even occur to me that he will realize what the stickers were good for. Now I know I should have been more cautious. I did not clean the table yet. I thought about taking pictures of it but I am too lazy to dig for the camera.

lovin’ Sundays

Today was a beautiful day. And the husband’s lucky day. Or so he claimed :D I went to church this morning and I feel a lot better since I have not been to church for a long time. The husband and the little man were already waiting for me in the parking area when I got out with burger and fries on the ready. He knew I was starving since I did not have breakfast. I did not bring the little man because I was not sure if I he would sit through the mass without getting whiny.

We had late lunch at our favorite restaurant. The little man was well behaved and did not give us any problems. We were waiting for the stepdaughter to call because we were supposed to celebrate her son’s birthday but she did not call and it was too pretty to be spent inside the house so the we did not go home even if the husband was complaining about his back. He was the one who did not want to go home and I was fine with it. Do you know what we did to pass the time? Bought scratch card and made a game out of it, lol. Well, he claimed this to be his lucky day which proved to be true since we won a good amount just by scratching cards.

This is why I love Sundays. There are no pressures. We just had a quality family time which we all enjoyed. It did not hurt that the weather was warm and the day was beautiful :)

handy manny

Since my little boy likes Handy Manny I figured he would love the toy I bought for him, Handy Manny’s toolbox! He does and he has been carrying the box wherever he goes now. He even wanted it in the tub when I gave gim a bath. Silly kid! He likes Pat and Felipe more than the others though. He has been using Pat to pounce on the coffee table. What I am afraid of is how he is using Felipe for, to clean his ears! I had to explain to him several times that screw drivers are only good for tightening and losening, well, screws. He has to learn that early on before he gets into trouble, lol. He seems to understand and hopefully he will not forget. We are glad we decided to buy him this toy after thinking about it. It was worth the money as far as we are concerned.
