That is one of Greg's phrases, usually when he spills something. But it works for our trip to the local science center today. First, let me start by saying how much I dislike winter. It puts me in a general mood that leads me to be quickly irritated, especially if we stay home too much. Because I just find myself constantly doing laundry and also telling the boys to "pick that up" while they make forts and change clothes 10 times, leading to more messes and more laundry. So instead we try to get out and do things. So when they asked last night if we could go to the science place, I said yes. I heard there was a new adventure exhibit so I thought this would be just the thing for us. We even pulled out our ranger outfits so we looked like true explorers. I tried to get a picture before we went in. It went something like this:
me: okay, a quick picture....(then we wait on my pitiful camera to get ready)
greg: gives me a crazy fake smile
me: no g, just smile, like a normal smile, like you're laughing...doug just look at me for 2 seconds....seriously, both of you, look at me and smile.....
Why do I even bother? But in Doug's defense, he was distracted by the lady telling us we could go on in. It went great for a while, until Doug got a little scared and the crying started. I told Doug to solve the puzzle we needed to focus, think and not cry, but we were beyond hope at that point. We decided to come back some other time with Daddy.
