Ironies...

Anxiously awaiting some ice cream from big brother,

sporting her new hair clippies from "Aunt" Keidi! Thanks!

Throwing a penny he found into the fountain

Irony of Ironies... today we went to Cold Stone Creamery with our mouths watering for ice cream, only to find a sign on the door saying "We're sorry for the inconvenience but we are unable to serve ice cream today". Can you believe it? Try explaining to your 3 year old that the ice cream store doesn't have ice cream! What I can't believe is that they were still open! All they could serve were smoothies... don't know why and didn't stick around to find out. Then on the way home (and to the OTHER ice cream store! :o) we passed a parking lot with a big truck parked in it, with tables all set up selling :

snow cones








and....................................................................................................................................








Computers! $99 special (Wonder what truck they "fell" off)
What a combo!

For those of you who know and love our neighborhood, it was the parking lot of Buffalo China, just across the street from Rubber Man Tires! :0) You just have to love Atlanta!

Well, we did find an ice cream store that was open and had ice cream! Anson and Ella enjoyed their treat (so did Mommy). And we are looking forward to Dusty coming home tomorrow! He has been in Charleston on business since Wednesday evening.

So here is the next weird thing that happenned... Tonight we were in the middle of our bedtime routine... I was finishing feeding Ella and Anson had just gotten out of the tub. I told him to go get his pull-ups on and come back into Ella's room. He disappeared for a minute and came sheepishly (still naked!) into her room and said "Mommy, I just pooped in your pretty livingroom!" To which I said, "please tell me you're joking". He said "Nope". Well, I put Ella to bed and went out to survey the the scene. I'll spare the details, but it was not as bad as I had imagined! After cleaning and sanitizing, we had a little chat about why it is important to go straight to the bathroom and not stop to play when you have to go! And of course if he had obeyed, he would have at least had his pull-ups on! :o) All the "interesting" things seem to happen when Dusty is away!
