…. you are supposed to use newspaper… not napkins.

Fantastagirl reply: Sure NOW you tell me - where were you when I was digging through the cupboard looking… and I don’t get the newspaper - if I don’t read it on-line, or at work, I don’t read it. Too much clutter.

I downsize when Princess is at school too. then I put it aside to see if she notices. she never does.

Fantastagirl reply - I’m hoping the kids don’t notice either.

No training wheels! Yea!!
Face it, the kid is growing up. Only a few steps to that Harley Hog.

Fantastagirl reply: BITE YOUR TONGUE! as long as he is on my insurance he will never never own a harley… the only difference between the Harley and a dirt devil is the placement of the dirt bag. (the boss I can’t stand has a Harley..)

Use newspaper, it’s awesome!!!

p.s. we just bought a carpet cleaner and I thank all things holy everytime a dog pees or someone spills something that we spent the money on it.

Fantastagirl reply: I know exactly what you mean!

YAY for Pan!! And you, cleaning, when no one’s around? Is that so it’ll STAY clean for more than 5 minutes?

Fantastagirl reply: We are actually going on Sun, Mon, Tues, Wed - FOUR DAYS of it being clean…. 4!!! oh shut up - it’s exciting.

Yeah for Pan!! I wanted one of those little carpet cleaners - I still may go out and get one soon - very soon cause I can’t take it anymore!

Fantastagirl reply: the sound of excitement in his voice was amazing….

newspaper works AWESOME on windows (and mirrors) I always do my mirrors on the day that all the junky flyer’s come in my mail box.

Do you notice that pan is different At his grandparents than when he is at home?

For example, blue boy(5) at home, he wets the bed at least three times a week, but never at his nana’s. He stayed there for nine nights and was dry every single one, without her monitoring his water and juice.

And Rainbow Man (7) is way quieter at nana’s tan at my place. He is willing to sit for hours and play legos, but at home, legos are a baby toy.

Just little things like that. Im just wondering, i guess, if this is something all kids do when away from home - changes in behavior I mean…

Fantastagirl reply: Enough with the newspaper already - perhaps I should keep those shopper thingy and use them….
Yes - Pan and Tink are the world’s bestest angels when at Papa and Grandma’s. Pan is willing to TRY to ride his bike - without training wheels - won’t even attempt it at home. They play nice together, pick up their toys and go to bed the first time they are told. COMPLETELY DIFFERENT kids. I have no idea why.
