Our little Escape Artist

Once again I had left my precious lil man in the care of his G-ma and G-pa on Monday while Josh and I were at work. They raised me and I made it out alive right!?! Well, Alive… yes, normal and unscarred… up for debate! Nonetheless, Luke discovered something new while he was there… The Doggie Door! And word on the street was that he tried to escape out of it on more then one occasion. What’s this kids deal? He doesn’t know how good he has it haha… EPS, Eat, Poop, Sleep, that’s all he does. But noooo, he wants to escape to the mean streets of A-town where his mom grew up banging, (and by banging I mean having the most ridiculous set of bangs ever!) Anyhow, of course they didn’t get video of him when he had actually made it out, but they knew he would be back! So Wendo got a video of him thinking about trying it again. He doesn’t get all the way through this time but its still funny. Enjoy

You know...Punch face

On Monday Josh had some more training at work so my parents were watching Luke till I got off work. They decided to take him to the park so he could get down on some playground equipment. You know, slides, swings, etc… Well, I receive a picture message on my phone from my mom of Luke in one of those baby swings and he had quite the sourpuss face. I wrote back something along the lines of “oh he looks like he is having an awesome time…sike” My mom returns with “This is his happy face” Oh man! If this is this kids “happy” face I’m in trouble!

So later that night we are having dinner at their house, and after my mom was done feeding Luke, she got out the Gorilla hand... Ok ok, so its not really a gorilla hand per se, but its this huge fake black hand that is in the shape of a fist, and it has a hole in it were you put your beer. Hahaha sounds ridiculous right? Well it is, and if you have ever been to Billy Bonneys you know what I’m talking about. Anyways so my mom proceeds to play “Punch Face” with him, which consists of Wendo acting like she is punching Luke in the face with this so called “gorilla” hand. This is the kid who was bored with swings and could probably come up with a million better things to do (play in the dogs water bowls, or try an escape out the doggie door), then go down the slide that day mind you. Well he starts cracking up. I mean the laugh you rarely hear, because unlike his mother he is not easily amused! I tried to get my video working on my phone before he was over it, and I did manage to get a lil bit of it. Not the huge laughter but it will do.

BTWS...if it weren't for Wendo's damn cackle you could hear Luke's better haha

Lukes first day out of the nest

Josh has decided to take a job opportunity that came up recently. I of course was not happy about this because I was really fond of the idea of Luke getting to stay home with one of us. But Josh was “dying” at home, (haha he’s such a melodramatic) so we decided to start looking for someone to watch Luke during the day. I really had an aversion to someone I didn’t know watching him before he could communicate with us but Josh really wanted to get back to work so I started looking at day cares.

Thankfully I remember a friend of mine that does daycare at her home. I called her up and she was willing to take Mini Luke into her home. Now unfortunately her “home” is in Parker! Yep so now I will be making an hour long trip to pick my lil man up after work. So I came in early today so I could get off earlier so I could try and miss some of the dreadful traffic and was, lets say… a lil crabby about it to say the least. But then I received a video of Luke already having a blast with her lil girl and it made the drive all worth it. I guess peace of mind is worth a lot more then I thought. Check it…

"Don't put me on that Damn Blog"

This lil “incident” happened on Monday but it wasn’t safe to post till now since Aunt Lisa will be leaving the state today. Haha she said we could blame her but don’t put me on that damn blog haha too bad I do what I want! Alright I’m starting to Tarantino this story, I need to start from the beginning.

We went over to my parent’s house on Monday for a family dinner of Corn Beef and Cabbage, one of my favorite meals ever! So while under Aunt Lisa’s watchful eye or lack there of we should say, Luke was climbing on Champ (or family pug) by the bar where people were eating and Champ was begging. I was on my way into the kitchen to throw my plate away when I noticed this bad idea on Lukes part. As I’m walking over to grab him, champ moves and Luke falls on his face on the corner (of all places of course) of the bar. Bam! instant bump/bruise on his forehead. He only cried for a second but it was definitely his worst fall yet, good thing he’s tough!

So after 20 minutes of trying to put a frozen bag of corn on his forehead, and Bill Bo getting pissed “Who’s watching that kid”( yeah you know the tone) Luke was back to his normal self and we started chitchatting about the prior events. We were discussing who was suppose to be watching him (in a room full of people mind you) and all fingers were pointing to Aunt Lisa, which she took responsibility for but only if she didn’t end up on the blog. Too bad for her we lead an uneventful life and this is the most action we’ve see this week haha. But in all fairness, shit happens and there’s a long road ahead of us with many more “incidents” in the future.

Here’s the proof, don’t call CPS on us



Tough as nails



Aunt Lisa's Culprit (only pic i could get at work haha)


A lil side note, as I'm getting my phone ready to take a pic Josh is like "why are you going to take a picture of this" and I told him, "I gotta blog man" haha he just doesn't get it :)

More Stupid Hats Please

So I had to venture to the A-Town Mall last night because a certain someone (rhymes with puke) pulled out my last nose ring on Tuesday. So after hitting up Hot Topic, which is always an experience to say the least, My 2 boyfriends, Luke and I walked around the rest of the mall. While we were there we managed to find two ridiculous hats to put Luke in which he was not happy about. He wouldn’t even crack a smile. But we didn’t care because we found it entertaining. But thankfully he was comatosed so i could take some good pics, Take a look…

First He’s visiting Del Boca Vista (yes this is a real kids hat at Old Navy)
He'll be all over those shuffleboard courts haha


And obviously I couldn’t pass up putting him an a Oscar the Grouch hat!

Outlaw Lukey C

So after celebrating Bill Bo’s birthday on Saturday night with some of my favorite people, I was what we like to say “Emilee” hungover. For those of you who don’t know what it means to be Emilee hungover its something you never want to experience in your life. Before I had Luke I never would get hungover, it was like I had a freak gene that excluded me from this phenomenon I had heard so much about. Which was awesome because I would see the after math of what a night out drinking would do to my best friend Emilee and is was unimaginable. I’m talking puking at 6:00pm the next day, they should just follow her around that next day and put her in those Public Service Announcements to tell kids not to drink…Not even Once!

Anyways so I had been laying around all day with Chad watching trash tv, while Josh was out playing basketball and enjoying the beautiful weather that I wanted nothing to do with because I was literally dying right there in my living room. At about 7:00pm after a couple relapses I was finally starting to feel decent and a lil hungry. So I order us some wings from wing stop which I can not get enough of! So I order enough so I would have leftovers for Monday night when I got home from Hell aka work. So Josh and Chad leave and it’s me and my lil bandit just hanging out. I had heated up my scrumptious snack and had them on a plate in my lap with the side of ranch that comes with them. I receive a text and continued to write back. When I finish my text I put my phone down and notice Luke just pulled a robbery on me. He didn’t grab any of my wings just ate half of my Ranch! His eyes were huge which matched the size of the smile on his face and he had ranch all around his mouth and hands. I obviously couldn’t help but laugh and had to put the plate away because he became possessed by the ranch and was just yelling at me for more. So I took a few pics with my camera phone so here they are…

An old nasty friend is back!

So this may come as a surprise to some of you, but probably not, but I use to/have the "worst gag reflex" ever. My gag reflex use to be really bad, just thinking about something that grossed me out could send me to the bathroom, sink, or near by field. Some jackasses thought it was funny (you know who you are) and would purposely try and make me puke. Although this was amusing to others, who would use it as their own personal party trick "wanna see Val puke", I was pretty apprehensive about changing dirty diapers when Luke arrived. To my surprised I had no problem with it at all. I was CURED! So I thought…

Unfortunately Luke drank a lil WA water while we were there and Holy crap how that upset his stomach. The poor kid has been having blow out after blow out. I don’t even put him in clothes anymore. Nope crawling around in his diaper with the heat cranked to 75 (my dad would pass out if his heat ever went above 65 "put some clothes on" is his answer for freezing his family in their own house haha) .

So on Friday night, I gave Josh a Hall Pass to go hang out with his friends, I know I’m a easy going Warden. Anyways Luke and I were hanging out watching a ridiculous movie on MTV eating some baby trail mix (yea that’s right I eat it sometimes too), when all of a sudden I smelt it. I lifted up his shirt and immediately took him into the bathroom and put him in the tub, I wasn’t even going to attempt to use wipes on this one! So I take his shirt off and then proceed to the diaper of doom. As I am pulling it off I had a sudden urge from the past creeping up my throat. Before I knew it I gagged once and then just straight puked in the tub. So there we are me , Luke and a pile of puke. Naturally Luke goes right for it, so I am fending off a baby, trying to clean up my own puke, and kicking The Dude away form the ghastly diaper. Good thing Luke can’t repeat anything I say yet because there were a few profanities being tossed around as I remember.

Oh man the joys of mother hood, I’m sad to see my old friend gag reflex, but hopefully it wont make an appearance too often.

Who am I kidding I’m screwed!
