I'm no fool

Here it is, Wednesday night. It's late. I've been surfing the web, looking at other blogs, watching a few videos. Really nothing at all. My husband is also glued to his laptop on the couch next to me. Thought that I'd write a quick post before retiring to my soft inviting bed. Went to church tonight. Practiced with the choir. Sunday we'll be singing a song called "Hosanna." I was singing it in the car on the way home. Ho sa a na... Ho sa a na... Hosanna to the King. Ho sa a na... Ho sa a na.......
My middle son started singing the same melody along with me, but changed it just a bit...Lasagna Lasagna Lasagna tastes so good....

Did any one of you get an April Fool's prank? Well, my youngest son got me. Apparently he got the trick from Nickelodeon. This morning when I went for my regular bowl of Strawberry Frosted Mini Wheats, I opened the box and started to pour the cereal when I realized that it wasn't my cereal! I got a bowl full of Frosted Flakes! Chandler had switched the bags before he went to sleep. Cute huh?!


And here's Glynis yet again. We went to Costco yesterday. Needed to stock up on some meats and a few other things. Wasn't planning to buy anything else, but look at this. It's a Step2 play sink with a working (battery operated) faucet. Glynis loves water, so we just couldn't pass this up. It's obviously an outdoor toy, but how could we not let her try it out last night?! How many of you would let you child play with 2 gallons of water right in your living room! Yes, we're a little crazy. It all turned out ok. Most of the water stayed in the sink.

Are you kidding? When I was doing home daycare one year, I brought the sandbox in my kitchen and let the kiddies play in the sand!

The kids played ALL DAY - had a blast and it was really pretty easy to clean up.

Hey, it was a long winter!

BTW, if you haven't already done so, hop on over to my new blog and leave your link & join in the fun.

I love that sink, I must find my "twins" would love it : ) You are a good Mommy, and yes I would let them play inside with it as well. At least the first time.
I played a joke for April Fool's day on my kiddos. It was so fun! Dinner looked like mini-hamburgers, but it was actually vanilla wafers and peppermint patties : ) Needless to say they ate their dinner!

My kids had a water table too and it was one of their very favorite toys! Good call on buying that!

Your son is too funny! No one played any tricks on me, fortunately. I think they felt sorry for me because I've been sick. Works every time! LOL

You are a brave soul with the water toy inside the house.
