Stop the madness!

Dinner time last night at the Cragun house:

-Dad had something nasty in his throat and is trying to "scratch" it out OVER and OVER again very loudly.

-Mom gives Tanner milk, but he wants water. She gives Logan milk, but he is screaming for juice. She gives Chase milk, he throws it and when it hits the floor, the lid pops off

-Logan takes a bite of his roll, but doesn't like it so he throws it up into his bowl of food. He realizes that is gross and puts the thrown-up roll into Tanner's bowl when Tanner isn't looking.

-Tanner notices and gets revenge by pouring his milk into Logan's bowl.

-Logan wants to continue the war, but Dad distracts him by making funny faces.

-Chase then begins sticking peas between his toes, then brings his feet to his mouth to eat them out of his toes.

-Mom then notices that Logan is under the table wearing a holiday wreath around his waist doing a song and dance.

-Tanner laughs so hard that milk comes out of his nose

-Logan then gives out a 4 second belch to which Tanner tried to challenge by burping himself.

-Chase leans forward to grab Dad's plate and passes a little gas. Tanner laughs, so Chase leans forward again and...more gas. (repeat 2 more times)

-Jake then grabs my hand and says..."you still sure you want more of this is in our future?" :)

*Later that night I found my new favorite show. It's on TLC on Monday nights. If you haven't seen it, it's a must see. It's called "Jon and Kate plus 8". It's a reality show about a couple with 8 kids. They had twin girls to begin with, then wanted to try for one more baby and they got sextuplets! It'll make your average day seem mellow! She is such an amazing mom, she said that time-outs are as about as common as breathing around their house! I later felt bad that I was complaining about our dinner together with just my 3 kids!

Your dinner is definitely exciting! I LOVE that show. Frank and I watch it all the time. He calls it birth control!

I love that show too and amazed how Kate is so organized and the house is always clean...makes me feel guilty when I can't keep up with my 4 kids!

I love this show, I watched it all last season. I am amazed by all mothers--3 or 8 kids.

Oh my goodness Celeste! First off, I totally would not have recognized you with brown hair! Last time I saw you would be 11 years ago in high school? I've ran into your sister and Dad a couple of times. You look wonderful and your family is gorgeous. After reading this post and your profile... you certainly have your hands full. I'm glad you commented on my blog. I've thought about you now and again and it's great to see you doing well. So do you mind if I link you so I can check in with you more often?
