Cookie Time

I was pleas­antly sur­prised when watch­ing Mr. G, Mamacita, and D-man have cookie time together. Mr. J was not home at the time & don’t get him started on how “ALL THE FUN STUFF HAPPENS WHEN I AM NOT HOME!” his exact words. When really dude NOTHING much hap­pens with­out you here. But try explain­ing that to an almost 7 year old (ugh, I’m still cring­ing at him being almost 7, my baby.) I mean really I’m writ­ing a post about the other rabble-rousers eat­ing cook­ies. This post is about NOTHING. I’m navel-gazing. It’s almost like a mem­ber of Con­gress, I mean seri­ously talk about some navel-gazers. What have those folks really done for me lately? NOTHING. Yet, we have 24 hour news net­works devoted to them. And I’m the navel gazer???

Any­way, back to me & my beau­ti­ful noth­ing­ness. While watch­ing them they all ate together nicely.

They played with their cook­ies together nicely. Yes, I let them play with their food. Hor­ri­ble Mother I am.

And Mr. G (who did I tell you is 5 now! Um, when did my kids get SO OLD??) shared one of his cook­ies with the D-man. It was a rag­ing suc­cess. As is evi­dent by D-man decid­ing to do the “see food” routine.

He WOULD NOT STOP. I was try­ing to get a pic­ture of him look­ing cute with his sib­lings. Instead he gave me this pic­ture. His sib­lings, includ­ing Mr. J who saw it later thought it was THE. FUNNIEST. THING. EVER. Mr. G’s exact words while laugh­ing his head off “I just LOVE THAT PICTURE!!” I told you the kid’s a born comic he knows where the money is–bodily func­tions. He fits in with the rest of the gang’s sense of humor.

Too bad it just makes me think of “Show Mommy how the pig­gies eat.” And I cringe in true hor­ror at the thought of that scene in A Christ­mas Story. Remem­ber I am the woman who doesn’t even let her food touch. Ah, the HORROR at the mix­ing & eat­ing of food in such a crazed man­ner. But hey, D-man knows that movie is bank given it’s on the ENTIRE (YES, ENTIRE) Christ­mas Day & his Father (my Beloved Hubby) tor­tures me with that scene EVERY YEAR! Let’s hope he gets a movie deal outta this about NOTHING so I can really do some true navel-gazing.
