Barbage Trucks don't eat kids

This afternoon while Zack was supposed to be napping, he was instead standing at his window watching the garbage truck come up the street. I had a feeling that he wasn't asleep, so I crept up the stairs and into his room to find him completely intrigued by the garbage truck. When he realized I saw him, he quickly began talking about how he was watching the garbage truck (as he knows the penalty for getting out of his bed when he's supposed to be napping!) So, as I stood as his window watching the truck, he turned to me and said:

Zack: "Mommy (with hands upturned for effect), barbage trucks don't eat kids, they just eat barbage."
Mommy: "What?"
Zack: "Barbage trucks don't eat kids Mommy, they only eat barbage cans."

So, there you have it. Garbage trucks don't eat kids, just in case you were wondering.

Boys get treats

We're nearly finished day training Zack...he's been doing so well! Today, he ran to the bathroom after breakfast, came back and said:

Zack: Mommy, I went potty.
Mommy: That's great Zack! I'm so proud of you.
Zack: I get a treat?
Mommy: No. Not this morning. You don't need a treat everytime you go potty.
Zack: I went pee-pee. I get a treat!
Mommy: Gabby doesn't get a treat every time she goes potty.
Zack: But I a boy Mommy. Only boys get treats when they go potty.
Mommy: Oh, is that how it works?
Zack: Yes, I a boy Mommy. Boys get treats.

Mob Wars

Ok, so I haven't been blogging much lately. I know. But I've been sucked into Facebook AND to Mob Wars. I have quite a life of crime online. Mob Wars is a Mafia style game where you rob people, jewelry stores, smuggle drugs...you know, your everyday crime! You collect weapons and buy up parts of the city to make more money. My arsenal includes: 5 Wesson PPCs, 1 Double Barrel 45, 5 Tactical Shotguns, 1 Colt 1911, 2 44 Magnums, 4 Pump-Action Shotguns, 3 Tommy Guns, 15 Assault Rifles, 2 Miniguns, 12 Grenade Launchers, 25 Body Armors, 1 Crown Vic, 1 BMW 735, 3 Mercedes W220s, 5 Armored Range Rovers, 3 Armored Trucks, 4 S.W.A.T Bearcats, and 1 Yacht.
I also own quite a bit of the city! 1 Empty Downtown Square (on which I'm planning to place an Office) and 1 Container Yard. I own 2 Apartment Buildings, 3 Hotels, 2 Highrise Apartments.
It's really sad how addicting this whole Mob Wars thing has become. I find myself constantly looking at the fight list to see if there is anyone logged in with a Mob smaller than mine so that I can attack them and steal their money. But you do have to be careful who you steal from because they might get mad enough to add you to the Hit List where within a matter of seconds, you'll be dead (which has happened to me 5 times now!)
Want to join my mob? Leave a comment. Let's take over the city together!

The Chase

Husband and Wife finally get some down time. They are sitting on the couch, watching Survivor, and Husband says:

Dave: "This feels so good. You don't even know.
Amy: "Yes, I do. I don't chase bad guys all day long. I just chase three little ones."

Happy Birthday ShaSha!

Happy Birthday ShaSha! We love you!

Photo Tag

Jill tagged me. I"m supposed to find the 4th photo from the 4th file in my photos and tell you about it.



This is a picture of my little Joshua (who's now 14 months old!) This was taken at my sister's house at some party which I cannot remember. This was the stage of just starting to smile (no, it was not gas!)

Now. I tag Karissa and Don.

Two Things Missing

In the last 3 days, we've lost two teeth. My girl is growing up way too fast!

"Like A Cupcake"

This morning, I was greeted by a very happy 2 1/2 year old at 5am, thanks to the time change. I held him at bay for 30 minutes but to ensure my husband had a little more sleep, I had to get up with my Little Bubba. We went downstairs and started to make banana muffins for breakfast. We stirred, poured and mixed and added 1 chocolate chip to the tops of each mini muffin.

As I put them in the oven, Zack said:

"Mommy, I'm growing big and strong...(a little pause for effect)......like a cupcake!
