"Eeew, Poop Poop Balloons"

My phone went down today and I don't know when it is going to be back up. It's weird how when that happens it's like instant isolation and a wave of depression just kind of washes over you. Last night I was waiting for it to get late enough to call my sister-in-law Calixta and then we had some bedtime issues... so I didn't call Calixta, to get Juliann's phone number, to call Juliann, to wish her a happy birthday, so if you read this Juliann Happy Birthday! I'm trying to call you...sorry, but now I can't call anyone probably as punishment for not calling you on time.

So today was pretty good. Chio is getting A LOT easier to take care of if we stay in the house and I think that it's going to stick because she's been that way since mid December and that included a bout of sickness.

When I was changing Chio this morning she sneezed while her legs were up in the air, diaper off and I was standing above her (disregard the irony of me writing this on this blog, you knew it was bound to happen with two kids) I had poop speckled across the white shirt I was wearing, on the wall, and where ever else it landed. This has never happened to me before. alex saw it and after staring for a couple of second said, "eeew, poop poop balloons" (but in his words which sound different and I can't spell and still convey the meaning). I was pretty grossed out and actually considered just throwing the shirt out, but then decided that I would end up having to go out and buy a new one that much sooner and I should just try to wash it.

It may seem like I'm rambling, I'm kind of tired but I would like to stay up to see what happens in New Hampshire and so I thought I would write a quick post.

Here are some pictures that I took today. I was trying to get a cute one of Chio in her outfit which I love but alex kept standing in front of me so I would take his picture instead to the extent that at one point that he was actually sitting on top of her in her chair (I think that was the point where her shoe fell off). I only ended up getting these two photos: one of alex looking great and one of Chio looking completely rattled. Enjoy.
