This is how my 7th year as a parent is shaping up...
- D: Mom, can I get a bra for my birthday?
- Me: No.
- D: <disgruntled noises...stomping feet>
- Me: <sigh>
- D: Mom, am I allowed to watch the MTV Video Music Awards?
- Me: No.
- D: <dramatically flings body onto couch. fake sobbing ensues>
- Me: <siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh>
- Wow. That went well. We aren't even at the tween years. I SO cannot handle this yet.

Moday Morning…
why do you hate me so?

So my Keurig sits beautifully on a very lovely side board in my dining room. (I’d post his handsome pic but my dining room is currently a disaster area. Snow day. Kids running rampant. Toys flying. You get the idea. So for now just imagine his stateliness.) I don’t use it everyday because that single-cup-thing is just not how I drink coffee. I need a great big steaming pot so I can continuously refill, refresh and warm up my cup. The cup that often gets forgotten in various places throughout the house while wrangling three children out of bed and attempting to make them presentable. It would not be cost effective to use my Keurig for my early morning coffee. Sometimes I end up pouring a completely new cup because I can’t find the first one.
I mostly use my Keurig for that late-morning or mid-afternoon treat. So I need some recommendations on the best coffee-treat-k-cups. I am fond of the Donut House Collection. They have on called: “Chocolate Glazed Donut” - anyone ever try this? Let me know. Do you have a favorite k-cup of another brand? I need to know.

Seems the two-year old has graduated from throwing stuff in the toilet, to throwing stuff in the fish tank.

A conversation with my daughter…
Me: Dallas, it’s time to go pick up the pizza, put your shoes on please.
Dallas: OK, mom, I’ll be ready in like, 10 minutes.
Me: (knowing that 6-year olds have no concept of time) Dallas it only takes a minute to put your shoes on.
Dallas: MOM! (said in her best wanna-be-a-teenager voice) I have to put on my make-up and stuff.
Me: We’re just going to pick up a pizza, not to a photo shoot.
Dallas: MOM!
Ten minutes later…
Yes, that is a boa and you can’t see it but she found one of my old pocketbooks and has it slung over her shoulder. She looked so cute and happy that I decided to wait until we got to the pizza place to inform her that she was waiting in the car while I ran in to pick up. #MeanMommy
