My New Underwater Camera

This is one of the best inventions EVER!!! How can you miss the crazy piccies like this!

I have millions now and yes alot are just bottoms under water (when they have come up for a breath) and lots of bubbles but the pictures I have from the beach etc are great and it doesn't matter if it gets wet or sandy - you just rinse it off (sort of like my parenting philosophy) and the kids can drop it as well and it bounces right back - like Snuffy.

Motherhood

I picked up the kids at daycare yesterday and as it was very late and neither Mr Fix It or I had finished early I did the wonderfully bad mother and wife thing and told the kids that we were having Maccas(the good old golden arches) for dinner.
As I was buckling them in their car seats and asking the how their day was and who they played with the following conversation ensued.

Boody Boy - "I love you so very, very much, so much very much"

Me - (feeling all warm and fuzzy and giving him a big hug and kiss) Thanks mate I love you so very much as well"

Boody Boy - "But when you dont buy me McDonald's I only love you this much" (he pinches his thumb and pointer together so only a sliver of light shows through)

Me - "Ohh(that floored me for a bit) That makes mummy sad when you say that because I love you very much all the time"

Boody Boy - "Well you make me sad all the time too"

What can you say to that. i guess you win some and you loose some, mainly I loose them but it all makes it worthwhile later when they cuddle up on your lap before bed, smelling all nice and clean and calm and Snuffy says "Lub oo to moon back" Ahhh Motherhood.

Keeping for his 18th

Boody Boy was just cleaning up his room and the next minute he comes racing out of his room and exclaims to his father in a very indignant voice "Naked girls are not allowed in my big boy bed!" Mr Fix It was rolling around the floor laughing (it was his sister totally naked -I hope she grows out of this, both the naked and the being in Big Boy Beds)

I think this needs to be our embarassing 18th story as I am sure he won't be saying this in a couple of years!!!
