Some Kind of an Update

I know I've been behind on updating anything lately. Sorry folks (all 5 of you that might check this site on a semi-regular basis). Things have been hectic around here and I just haven't had much of an opportunity to sit down and put some words out here.


I wanted to take a moment and share two specific instances from this week before I forgot them though. One was a couple of days ago, and one was this morning. Sometime on Monday, Anita went into the bathroom and I hear her shriek and groan that motherly "oh great, look what one of my brood has done now" kind of groan. I was sitting on the couch and had just seen Zach run into and out of the bathroom about 2 minutes prior to this. He was in there for less than 20 seconds before I yelled for him to get out of the bathroom and he did so. Well, I go into the bathroom to see Anita scowling over the toilet with a quite disgusted look on her face. I look down to see the toilet seat up and the hand towel floating in the toilet water. Classic. Of course, a laugh just popped from my mouth like a soap bubble popping. I couldn't help it. I caught the blame of course. After all, I should have kept him out of the bathroom right? I mean, 20 seconds and all..... I figured that was about the same as keeping him out of there.


This morning, I awoke suddenly to Anita shrieking quite loudly, "CONNER NO! What on earth are you thinking!?" To which Conner replied, "I was going to cut Zach's hair. I got a haircut, and I wanted him to have a haircut like mine." Though I wasn't in the room, I can very well picture the scene with the look on Anita's face and the pose the boys were in.... good stuff.
