Conversations with Eleanor

Last night "we" (I mean Jason, and I just didn't talk) tried very hard to convince Ellee to not go to bed with her pacy becy.  I'm not up for this battle; but found Jasons frank and indepth conversation with an insane 2 year old hilarious. It went something like this:

Jason: "Elle; come here for a minute I want to talk to you about something."
Ellee: "Okay Papa."
Jason: "Lets just have rivee and cuppy and Bambi for bed tonight, okay? How about we don't have a pacy tonight?"
Ellee: "Ma pacy becy.  I want ma pacy becy."
Jason: "Lets just use cuppy tonight.  How about no pacy. Okay?"
Ellee: "I want to talk to momma about this."

She came to find me and I had to keep pretending I didn't know what she was CLEARLY asking me.  Crap her eyes can get pretty sad in a FLASH.

Then, when Papa was reading the bedtime story, Shishter Summer was behind her bed and I was in front of her. (YES, we ALL need to sit and listen to bedtime story... don't judge) Ellee turned around and about 6 inches from Summer's face and whispered "GO GET ME A PACY".  She was hella serious; I know Summer was scared. 

BUT we managed to not have pacy; it only took an extra hour and 45 minutes of rolling around in bed.  Gawd help us.

Any mom would agree...

This is an ooooold email I laugh at just about every time I talk to my sister, Katee.  And since I suck so much communicating with her lately, I have her on the brain and want to make her laugh.  Love you.

I just get so sick and tired of being the house dictator. From 4:35 when I walk inthe house every night after work its "Take the dogs out; but stay out there with them" "Feed and water the dogs" "put Ellee in her high chair so that hellcat can eat" "get me a paper towel" "summer your dog is throwing up" "Can someone please get me a paper towel" "Montgomery go lay down. Stop begging" "Jason switch the load from the washer to the dryer" "Jason take this garbage out it frigging stinks" "Summer did you just throw the puke towels in the garbage? Jesus christ you know you're supposed to take those straight out the trash can outside" "Someone needs to empty the dishwasher" "Summer where is your dog? *Cat hissing in the background* "EEEELLLLEEEEE! STOP throwing your watermelon!" " "Summer put this shit away" "WHY ARE ERASERS ON THE COUCH" "Take this upstairs" "I don't know what we're having for dinner" "Ellee did you poop?" "Someone get me more wipes" Then I look at the clock and its 4:45. I love that everyone is helpful and do what I tell them to, I just wish I didn't have to tell everyone to do everything.  It's the SAME house we were in last night with the SAME cast of charactors; why can't we just do what we did yesterday again today? I don't see why I have to tell everyone the SAME THING day after day.
