Our house can sometimes be a crazy little bee hive. We are so fortunate to have 3 great boys and our sweet little girl. As it goes with busy households sometimes we don't always pay full attention to everyone when we are talking. Here is a little scenario that I overheard while doing laundry. Phil and the 4 kids are in the kitchen. Matt just had his Karate test and moved up a level. All 3 boys do karate and must do push ups and sit ups at home and keep a log.
Lauren: Having a snack in her high chair
Matt: Talking about how excited he is with his new belt.
Josh: Gets down on the floor and starts doing push ups.
Jake: Gets down from the table to join him.
Phil: Those are great push ups. You boys have a lot of push ups and sit ups for the new log.
Josh: Finishing his push up, sits down on the floor and looks up an at Phil and says, " Carlos and Charlies."
Phil: Oh is that what they are calling them these days.
Josh: Just looks at Phil who is wearing a shirt from Carlos and Charlies.
As I write this I am chuckling to myself. Phil never noticed that Josh had switched topics and really thought that they were now calling sit ups and push ups, Carlos and Charlies.

Oh...and Carlos and Charlies...ugh, I have some fuzzy memories of that place!
We have a few of those days here too! Many times I'm thinking of something, only 'half' listening, and the kids have to repeat what they said. Then I'm getting the stink eye! :-)
ReplyDeleteIt was great to catch up on Lauren's happenings! She is getting so big and and cuter each time I stop by. She's beautiful!I've been in hibernation from blog world, so I'm trying to catch up. So many friends to see, so much I've missed. :-)
That's great about Matt's new belt - nice job! Sorry to read about your tree, we had a few trees come down with all the snow & wind too. I'm ready for Spring!!
