It used to be brought to you by <a>Keely <\/a>at The Un-Mom but she&#8217;s taking a hiatus. Okay, it&#8217;s been a really long hiatus but Random Tuesdays still rock on with help from <a href=\"http:\/\/stacysrandomthoughts.com\/\">Stacy<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m a little sad that everyone is leaving today. It&#8217;s been so much fun having the twins here. Oliver was already walking but Owynn hadn&#8217;t quite let go to walk on his own. But now he is walking around our house and he&#8217;s so proud of himself. They are just so adorable and we&#8217;re going to miss them all <em>so<\/em> much when they leave.<\/p>\n<p>I admit I&#8217;m still wincing over the &#8220;G&#8221; word (grammy). Every time I hear it, I think of my MIL because she&#8217;s Grammy around here. Not me. It is a little weird to be a grandmother and still have younger kids at home. One of the benefits of getting married so young I suppose. For now I&#8217;m Grammy because I can&#8217;t seem to come up with anything better. I&#8217;m looking for something better before the boys talk and I&#8217;m stuck with Grammy for the next 40 to 50 years. Any ideas?<\/p>\n<p>Our fridge seems to be going through menopause. We noticed that it seemed a little warm so we put a thermometer in there. It climbed up to 40 then almost 50 degrees. Ya, let&#8217;s have some meatloaf with a side of food poisoning. Then it dropped to 30 degrees and things started getting frosty. Then back up again to above 40. Right now we&#8217;re in the ice age again until the next hot flash. This is the <a href=\"http:\/\/products.geappliances.com\/ApplProducts\/Dispatcher?REQUEST=SpecPage&amp;Sku=CFSP5RKBSS\">fridge of my dreams<\/a> but it will have to wait. It&#8217;s really not in the budget with out trip to Disney World next month. Food poisoning isn&#8217;t that bad, right?<\/p>\n<p>Over the weekend we received a letter from the principal at J-Man&#8217;s school regarding his attendance. The first sentence went like this &#8220;It has come to my attention that the J-Man&#8230;&#8230;.&#8221; Really, <em>that the J-Man<\/em>? Now, we all make mistakes, but when the letter comes from the school, you would expect it to be correct, especially if it&#8217;s from the principal. Oh, and for the record, when J-Man is sick, he will stay home. Period.<\/p>\n<p>He has been sick for the past two weeks and didn&#8217;t go anywhere during Easter break. He missed the whole week of school before Easter Break also. I sent him back yesterday even though he is still coughing a lot because his pneumonia hasn&#8217;t cleared up, he got an ear infection, and he&#8217;s on yet another round of stronger anti-biotics. I sent in a note to his teacher explaining how sick he is\/has been and when J-Man got home from school I said &#8220;Was the teacher happy to see you? Did she ask how you were feeling?&#8221; He said &#8220;She didn&#8217;t say anything. Nobody cared.&#8221; I&#8217;ll be so glad when 4th grade is over.<\/p>\n<p>Today is the last day to enter our <a href=\"http:\/\/bluemonkeybutt.com\/home\/2012\/04\/15\/jake-and-the-never-land-pirates-peter-pan-returns-review-giveaway\/\">Jake and the Never Land Pirates: Peter Pan Returns&#8221; DVD Combo Pack<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t forget to join us for What The Hell Wednesday tomorrow!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If it&#8217;s Tuesday this must be Random Tuesday Thoughts.
