Bad blogger!
We carved pumpkins. Correction: Trophy Hub carved pumpkins. I was busy making treats for Peanut to take to BASP tomorrow (info to follow), Peanut thought the insides were gross and Bubba thought the insides were scary. Last year he actually cried.

H1N1
The dreaded H1N1 has hit our area pretty hard.
At any given public place, you will find several people walking around with surgical masks on.
Seriously? That's ridiculous.
And it makes me wonder - Are they protecting themselves from us or us from them?

I suck
I suck at a lot of things.
Putting away laundry? I suck. Being patient with my kids at bedtime? I suck. Going to bed early and getting up early? I suck.
But...when it comes to baking, I do not suck. So why is it that I suck at making cut-out sugar cookies? I am completely incapable. What's the secret? My dough is always too dry and I can never seem to get them the right thickness and end up baking them too long. Can anyone help?!

Obsess much?
Welcome to Wednesday nights on ABC! Come on, who's watching with me? Modern Family and Cougartown and HILARIOUS. Lots of adult humor, so make sure the tater tots are sound asleep. I actually snorted. More than once. During both shows.
It has been a long time since I've watched sitcoms (are they still called sitcoms?). Seriously...probably since Seinfeld!? I've been stuck in dramas and reality shows. Oh, don't get me wrong. I still love me some Amazing Race, Survivor and Brothers & Sisters. But I have abandoned Grey's Anatomy and Desperate Housewives.
Speaking of reality shows and drama, do you watch Flipping Out on Bravo? That guy is completely off the hook. Million Dollar Listing on Bravo is also very addictive.
What have you been watching?

Announcement!
Queen is stuck in my head
Remember when I said he was a bruit and got over things in a matter of hours? This poor kid has it worse than Bubba did. He's got aches and a high fever. You can definitely tell when his Tylenol kicks in though. He's off the couch and playing within about 30 minutes of his dose.
I hope he'll be better tomorrow. Either way, he can't go to school. I was surprised when I called him in this morning (my first time) that they wanted his symptoms.
I hate it when either of my boys are sick, but they are so snugly and sweet. When I got home today, I sat with Peanut's head in my lap, stroking his head and Trophy Hub was just like "Oh my goodness, that is ridiculous". I totally wait on them hand and foot when they are sick and Peanut is old enough to milk it a little bit. Because as you all know, I don't wait on them any other time!
My bet is that after a good night's sleep he'll be good as new tomorrow!
