Band Aids...

Marquis loves band aids. He is always asking for one. Yesterday morning he wanted one on his face so to humor him I gave him one. I took it off around dinner last night and there was this horrible mark where the band aid had been. It was a perfect outline of the band aid with raised bumps all over. I guess he is allergic to that particular adhesive. I had no idea you could be allergic to adhesive! Oh well! The picture was taken this morning...it looks a lot better in the picture than it did last night.

Sticky situation...

One of our magnets fell apart and I thought I would fix it. Really easy just needed some super glue. I was very careful, I even made a mental note not to touch the glue so I wouldn't get it on my fingers.....Well, I put too much glue inside the magnet and it seeped out. I didn't realize this and put my finger on it and without thinking I used my thumb against that finger to rub it off....Yes, instantly bonding my fingers....I had to laugh I mean come on my fingers were stuck together. I tried olive oil...I don't know why I just thought I had read something about using it if you get glue on yourself. Yeah, that didn't work. So, I went to the internet...I love the internet. If you find yourself in this same situation use finger nail polish remover. I soaked my fingers for like five minutes or so and they came right apart. Go me!

Hair Cut

Yesterday, Molly came over and helped me cut Marquis' hair. He really doesn't like to get his hair cut so it's quite an ordeal at times. Overall I think he did fairly well. This morning I found Marquis with a pair of scissors...yes that's right he was trying to cut his hair. Luckily, I found him in time. He had cut one patch out of the front of his hair but I don't think you can tell....I hope not anyway.

Our Pumpkin

Marquis loves Halloween. He loves all the decorations and the costumes and of course the candy. He was so excited when we bought our pumpkin a week ago and he wanted to "dig" it right away. I tried to explain to him that it was too early to carve the pumpkin it might rot if we did it now. He didn't like that answer much and continued to be persistent asking every day for about three days or so. Finally, we came to a compromise. I told him we could draw the face on paper and then cut it out and tape it to the pumpkin he loved the idea and here is our "masterpiece".

You Win

I'm giving in. I want a place to kinda journal what happens with my family. I want a project, not that I need another thing to add to my already very busy life...but this is something for me. I think I really need my place and this is going to be it. :)
