Product of the Year

Ever since the government banned phosphorous from detergents, our dishes just haven't been getting spotless.  I've even sent Stewart to Dollar stores in hopes that they might still have some of the good stuff.  I was starting to come to terms with spotty dishes, until Stewart brought home Lemi Shine from the store. It's a miracle worker.  Seriously, it should win an award.  I wish I had a before and after picture for you, but I can't go back to using just regular dish detergent to get a picture. You'll have to just trust me, it's awesome.

Stewart's Sarcophagus

I came into our bedroom this morning and found Stewart sleeping like this:.

It makes me claustrophobic just seeing him. He loves it though.  I know he's in a good sleeping zone when his head is covered.  I try not to disturb him, but secretly I want to cut out a breathing hole for him.

p.s.  I know you're jealous of our swirly sheets.

At Least He Doesn't Snore

Stewart talks in his sleep a lot.  I always think I'll remember in the morning all the funny things he says, but I never do.  Last night, I was putting a child back in bed after a bad dream and came back into the bedroom to have this conversation with Stewart:  

He's sitting up in bed with his eyes open and looking straight at me.

Stewart:  "There's a good potty....(then he smiles realizing it didn't come out right)... sorry...  there's a good CHAIR in this room for using the potty."  (Smiles and nods his head that he got it out correctly.)

Me: "Oh, okay thanks."

Stewart: "You're welcome."  (Very proud of himself for passing on this valuable information)

I turned to leave.

Stewart: "Where are you going?"

Me: "I'm going to go write what you told me down."

Stewart: (Another nod of approval) "Yes, good idea."


I think I need to keep a pad of paper next to my bed from now on to document his wisdom.
