So on the GF's birthday, I tell Junior "your mom is getting to be an old lady." Without missing a beat she comes back with, "but she doesn't have white hairs like you do!"

Minisnick turns 5 tomorrow! My little man is growing up. He wants to go to McDonalds for dinner tomorrow night.

its funny we have been warning him that me is likely going to get shots at his 5 yr dr appt so he doesn't freak out next week. Now when people ask him old old he is, he says almost 5 and I am going to get my shots soon.

Well done Michigan's finest.

A Michigan police officer is being hailed as a hero after he bought a car seat for a mother and daughter in need, and someone posted a photo on social media of their touching encounter.
Emmett Township Public Safety Officer Ben Hall received a call from dispatch Friday in the Michigan township of nearly 20,000 people that a young child was spotted in a car without a booster seat.

When the car matching the description drove by, Hall pulled it over and found a 5-year-old seat belted in the backseat with no booster seat.

East Coast mentality voice- and then he gave the mom a ticket right

Nope. That was the profound thing. Instead of writing her a ticket then and there, he instead asked her to follow him to the Walmart that was just nearby and purchased her a car seat in lieu of a ticket.

so i left work early yesterday to spend some time with minisnick on his bday. We were playing with a Frisbee outside on the front lawn. He way overthrew the frisbee and landed probably 20 ft behind me. I told him it was too far for me to reach. In a calm soft voice he said its ok mommy I'll help you. He walked over to me, grabbed my hand and lead me towards the frisbee. as we were walking In the calm voice again he said see mommy you know how to walk.

I about fell on the ground laughing.

Just finished decorating / setting up for #2's birthday party. He's having a superhero costume party.

So, #3 decided last night that she wanted to view the world as a bipedal. She pulled herself up and and was balanced, briefly, before falling down. But apparently she was doing that all day yesterday.

Got home yesterday after pick up my son and he says his nose bled at nap time. I asked why and he said I was picking it again (recurring problem). I asked why, he says because I just have to eat my new boogers. I no you don't to which he replied, but....but they are so delicious.

At which point I couldn't help laughing and lost all chance at that being a teaching moment, oh well.

 

[Sapper PE LS]

Yes, in the age of virtually no outside playtime, at least our boys can still eat their boogers!

minisnick has his 5 yr dr appt this afternoon. made sure to remind him he might be getting a shot today, that didn't go over too well. I told him it will be ok, I got two shots yesterday (allergy shots) and he ask where they give shots. I said they would probably use his arms now that he is 5. He asked if they would put a bandaid on afterwards. I said they might, but he said he wanted me to tell them no bandaids.

my oldest son is going to get his learners permit today.....

 

[NJmike PE]

congrats ( I think) and good luck with that. I presume as a result you will be appearing more often in the DT.

my wife is going to ask if the parent in the car has to be sober while he is driving...

Colorado has a weird learners permit policy. you either pay around $500 for a 40 hour class (4 sundays) to get your permit, or you can wait till you are 15.5 and then you only have to take an 8 hour class. either way you have to have your learners for 12 months to get your actual license.. so I think they are trying to encourage kids to wait it out, maybe in that 6 months you mature a lot more?

right now he wont be eligible for his drivers license until he is 3 months past his 16th bday. kind of sucks, but we didn't know about / didn't research what we had to do until it was almost too late...

I am afraid to ask what insurance is going to be this time next year...

 

[NJmike PE]

It used to be in NJ that at 16 you could take a class with road experience hours and then you would get you permit. otherwise you wait until 17 and just get your license. But that has since changed and I have no clue what the rules are.

 

[matt267 PE]

Mike, luckily we're a few years away from this nightmare in the making.

Il has some strict rules. There area crazy # of hours of driving. No one under the age of 18 is allowed in the car except siblings or their own kids. so no friends in the car.
