How did this start??
How did I decide to blog about life with Josh? Well, a few things happened, my friend Shelly said I made her laugh with some of the comments I made at bible study and that if I had a blog she would read it. Then yesterday at dinner while describing my day with Josh I said" I am going to pitch my life to TLC, and call it life with Josh. Well of course who am I to pitch anything to TLC right? So I decided I will blog about it and hope that it makes someone out there laugh! Yesterday in my life with Josh, he started the day by getting my coffee creamer out of the fridge and opening it and drinking it. For some reason he LOVES to get condiments out of the fridge and drink them.His next trick of the day is taking my new body wash and taking the lid off. He then proceeded to pour it out in my make up case, effectively ruining my eyeshadow and new dental floss. Shut the door on that mess to get paper towel to clean the floor of the leaking body wash. Promptly got distracted by doing dishes and laundry. WAIT, what is that sound I hear?? Sounds like water running. HMMM IT'S JOSH. He got the apple juice, took off the lid and is pouring it out on my coffee table!!!! I run over there and grab the juice while yelling for my two older kids, who are home on a snow day to get me some towels! Okay that is cleaned up. As is the case EVERY day, I wash the pots and pans and put them away. Very nice right? Well as soon as I put them away this signals Josh to quickly pull them all out of the cupboard and put them all around the house. After lunch Josh eats a pudding. YUM, except he prefers to use his hand instead of his spoon and smear it all over his highchair tray. Now he needs a bath. Okay off to the bathroom, Josh is enjoying his nice warm bath for a few minutes, until he decides he should fill his play cup with water and pour it on the floor. I tell him if he does that again he has to get out. Does he care? NOPE. He starts throwing all his toys out onto the floor. Well, if you have little kids, you know most of their bath toys hold water, so now the floor is thoroughly soaked. Bath time is DONE!. I am almost out of diapers and the roads are in terrible shape and it is FREEZING out so I decide to supplement the diapers by using Josh's leftover little swimmers, after all, it is winter so he isn't swimming anytime soon. WOW I am proud of my ingenuity. The day continues on, calmly for a second. Josh wants to sit in my lap. YEAH! I love to cuddle him, wait, what is that on my leg?? Have you guessed yet?? That's right. His little swimmer is leaking on my leg. GREAT, now I am covered in urine and I have to put Josh's fourth outfit of the day on him! Jeff gets home from work that evening and we eat a yummy dinner of beef homemade lo mein. Jeff and Ian are playing a fun game on xbox, where you have to go through an obstacle course. Josh is sitting on the coffee table SCREAMING GO! GO! GO! He wants to be part of guys time. The noise is at an unbearable level. So guys time ends and Jeff and I want to watch a little TV and relax together. What is Josh doing you ask? He has gotten a pan from the cupboard and is filling it with soy sauce. Good grief! Brianna stops him and puts the soy sauce away. (who left that out? ooops, I think it was me) Finally Josh is worn out and falls asleep. Thank God, I made it through another day with Josh. You may wonder, did I remember to get paper towels and clean up the body wash off the floor? Why yes, I did. After twice during the day going into the bathroom and stepping in it, causing me to have to change my socks, but not immediately getting paper towels to clean it. Until my third pair of socks, then I got paper towel and cleaned it. with Josh helping of course.
