I split this one up in two parts again because of my verbosity. You're welcome.
10-M: Good night, Kye. I love you.
K: Good night, momster . . . momster . . . . hahahahaha. . . You’re a momster. HELP! A momster!! HAHAHAHA!!
Sheesh. Always a comedian.
9-Lucy’s new capris. She wears them every nice day and for the life of me I couldn’t remember where they had come from. I noticed she liked wearing them because they seemed to fit her well, and they weren’t even adjustable-waist. As I was laundering one day, I noticed the tag. Turns out my 8 ½ year old daughter is wearing a pair of 2T jeans for capris. Thanks for sharing your jeans, Audrey-bear!
8-Much to Zach's disappointment, I am not a puzzle person. My brain just doesn’t seem to work that way. (Perhaps lack of video-game playing stunted my hand-eye coordination skills and it came back to bite me in the . . . well, you know.) It took Isaac and I one full hour to complete a 100 piece puzzle. In my defense, we had to stop for snacks and drinks twice, and I had to distract Adam with different activities exactly 7 times. By the time we were finished, Adam had completely destroyed his room, Isaac’s room, the living room, the kitchen and the hall.
7-Latest and greatest Bradshaw vocabulary:
Rooooaaaaaarrrrrr!!!!-- That which every animal on the planet says, especially horses, according to Adam.
Snaining--April storms bring it. To be used when it’s not quite raining and not quite snowing. (Thanks, Zach)
Snailing--Hailing/snowing. (Lucy felt if her dad made up words, she could too.)
6--How to trick your mother—a tutorial. Listen and learn from my eldest. (1) Complement your mom on her cooking. (“Mmmmmm, mom! This is so good.”) (2) Dawdle till your mom leaves the room because she absolutely cannot spend another minute in the kitchen watching you not eat your dinner. (3) Jump up, pour your remaining food in the baby’s bowl, which is already on the counter to be washed. Remember that said baby doesn’t eat, either, so mom will not notice a little more in the bowl. (4) Blush with embarrasment and admit defeat when mom actually DOES notice. Ah, well. Worth a shot, anyway.
Dadadaaaaaaaaaa! Hope you enjoyed. Too be continued . . .

#9 - I can totally relate. My 7 yr old is wearing her 3T capris as shorts. I couldn't really make her give them up as they actually fit her. However her 3T shorts had to go because despite the fact that they fit her, they've become a little Dukes of Hazardish...(and I made my 10 yr old give up her size 5 shorts for the same reason).
I had to look up verbosity. I get it now. =) Love number 6, the compliment was more on the right track then she quickly derailed.
Momster-too funny!
AHA! HAAA HAAA! SO FUNNY! I love 'em all. So glad it's not snaining or railing lately or I might turn into a momster!
