Does it have to be dirt?!?!?

Well, it was one of those days. My BFF/teaching partner was out of town at a conference so unfortunately for her, she was unable to listen to my witty comments all day. Since I kept to myself in the morning and got some teaching done, I decided to reward myself in the afternoon with this heavenly goodness:

I mean, can you believe this. If you're wondering, yes, this is an  oreo with a chocolate chip cookie wrapped around it and then baked. How dare that student's mother create such a sinful treat! I was actually happy to take it off her hands. And yes, if you're wondering, she is one of those moms that you can gladly accept treats from. Not one of those that you know, you have to throw it away before you accidentally throw up in your mouth!

Anyway! After having such a great treat, I decided to do about 3 extra hours of cardio to get rid of those calories. Or, maybe I just watched my babies try and burn those calories off for me. I greatly appreciate their effort. I wish it worked that way! Babies?! you're saying in your head? Yes, I have twin boys, almost 16 months old. I also have a 5 year old boy but he decided he needed some technology credit in the afternoon and he decided to play a little baseball on the Wii!!  So, getting back to the babies trying so hard to help their momma out. They apparently burned many calories! So many calories that one decided he needed some fuel from his favorite go to source: dirt. The kid eats it any chance he gets. It. Makes. Me. Crazy. I am, kind of, how do I put this nicely...a GERMAPHOBE!!! And that kid thinks one of the funniest things on earth is to see his momma freak out when he puts dirt in his mouth. But then, how do I scold him?

I mean, would you scold that little dirt eater? Oh well, what're ya gonna do. I took the babies inside, where we played some more and Brayden ate his second favorite energy source: dog food. Oh, good golly, I feel the hairs turning gray as we speak!

I hope you visit again soon!!!
