Yep, still kicking

Have you ever accidentally given your dog two Ambien instead of his normal doggie allergy pills and then had to spend an obscene amount of money having the contents of said dog's stomach forcefully emptied at the emergency vet because it's a Sunday afternoon?

No?  Me neither.

I wish I had a cool excuse for not posting for eighty seven years but I don't.  It's just me and my increasing number of black yoga pants being lazy and watching tivo'ed episodes of Happy Endings.

(it's the funniest show you aren't watching, trust me)

Things are just busy here at casa de Beanie!

Mr. T is a traveling fool - going to places that he really should take along compression socks and a broad spectrum antibiotic.  Instead he takes some power bars and his porn iPad because really, does anyone actually get off on Asian ass porn?

Token is, well...I think we've covered him.

Kiwi is awesome.  He totally understands what we say and actually does it! (most times)

If I tell him to put his blue truck into his wagon, he will.  If I tell him to put the pink block on top of the red block, he will.  If I tell him to stop touching the dog's penis, he will.

He loves water, my kid.  He loves to put his whole face in the bathwater and take big swig.  And then choke for five minutes.  He has a toy in there, we call him Scuba Steve, who spits out water in a stream and Kiwi loves it. 

In fact, if he hears water running anywhere in the house, he's on a freaking mission...his little feet slapping the hardwood trying to find it.

Which, as it turns out, may not have been the best behavior to encourage.

Mr. T was using the facilities yesterday morning and didn't quite have the door closed all the way.

This is what I heard:

tinkle tinkle tinkle

Slap slap slap slap slap

"Oh, shit...Kiwi.  No."

tinkle tin....

"NO!"

flush

the sink turning on

squealing

slap slap slap slap slap

"I don't want to talk about it."

I guess when your hands are full, trying to prevent an excited toddler from sticking his hands in your pee stream is kinda hard.

Welcome to my world.

I've been gone awhile too -- should've thought of the Ambien/dog excuse....I've got a couple/three dogs to choose from.

The Father of my Children/Husband is also gone far too long to too far away....perhaps they are together? Love it when Dad leaves for freak snowstorms, parent/teacher conferences, and Halloween.

(And just so you know, the bathroom thing gets only marginally easier. Now, they barge in and get offended when they find you doing what you're meant to be doing in your own bathroom. (Really, what did they expect to find?)
