Kidnapping and Costume Changes

It is simply amazing to me how Jacob can't get dressed by himself in the morning, yet magically is wearing a new outfit anytime I turn my back on him. I don't help the kids in the morning really anymore, Danielle took over and they are for the most part ready by the time I wake up. And it's not really a new outfit, it's always pajamas, but he changes into different sets. I swear, he changes more times a day than Cher and I combined!
Danielle went off on a girls' night out so I made chili for dinner. I discovered when browning meat, it is advantageous to have a light on so that you can see the color. Haha. I had Barbra Streisand on while I was cooking, and after the kids were served, I was just standing in the kitchen eating. When Jacob finished eating, he came in and asked if he could have some gummy Krabby Patties. I didn't answer, I was mid-song, belting out along with Babs to a duet with Celine Dion, Tell Him. Instead of responding, I just turned and was singing to, or more like at him. Bringing new meaning to the term domestic diva. You should have seen the face he gave me, it was sooooo funny. I gave him some, and then called Olivia in to get hers. I held it behind my back and was telling her to pick a hand. I kept saying, "Pick a hand," and she was just like, "What?" Finally she just went around behind me and took it, she didn't get the concept, haha.
We had a play date with Amanda and Barrett this afternoon. I am going to steal him. Haha. Just joshin' ya, Amanda. Maybe. Danielle came over when she got home from work. And we were talking about my earlier post about Popses. I know its hard, and not like I was putting him down, it was just frustrating. Also I told Amanda about how I tried on those Sketchers Shape-Ups the other day at DSW. The ones that have a big sole and it's not flat, its like rounded and they are supposed to give you a workout by just walking. I said that they seem to me like a shoe a person would wear if they had one short leg. That sounds bad, I know, but Amanda and Danielle were my test audience and they agreed. And laughed. So if you have grievances, forward them to them. I'm not making fun of these people, or their shoes, just the shoes I was trying on.
BREAKING NEWS: This blog was just interrupted by Jacob coming out into the living room, where I am currently seated on the sofa, pants around his ankles, telling me, "Travis, I put too much toilet paper in the potty!" And I was like, "Is it overflowing?!" and he said, "Um, yes." So I was like Aaaah! It wasn't overflowing luckily, but I still had to plunge it. Ugh.
Back to the Popses thing, well relating to it, but not that part, the part of Jacob calling me Travvy. I forgot another part of it in the last post. Its not that he's calling me Travvy, which wouldn't bother me, but he is putting it in everywhere, where he wouldn't generally use my name. Like at both the beginning and end of a sentence. "Travvy, blah blah blah blah blah, Travvy!"
Catherine is coming over later for Runway.
Don't you love that one word paragraph, that isn't really worth it? Kinda like this one saying that about the previous paragraph, but now this paragraph has two sentences.
xoxo, Travvy
