A Big Shish

This morning when I woke up I could hear Benjamin talking when he woke up and he was saying " I want to hold it, I want to hold the shish (fish)." He said it twice. Then I heard his door open and I said "benjamin, mommy is in her room" so he came in and stood beside the bed and said "I want to hold the shish" I said "benjamin we can't hold fish, they have to stay in the water." He climbed up in my bed and said " Ben Ben catch a big shish, go shishing with gaga." I said "oh you went fishing with Gaga?" to which he replied "yeah, Ben Ben hook a big one!" I am guessing he was fishing in his dream right before he woke up.

After our two minute conversation he decided mommy needed to get up! Caleb started fussing and Benjamin looked at me and said "I hear "Key-ub, he's wakin up" I then told Benjamin to go turn on the lights so Caleb could see. So he turned around and went in there and I could hear him moving things around in the dark (i have blackout curtains on their windows... no light comes in) and finally I see the light come on under the door. Benjamin opens the door and says "mommy look... its Key-ub!!" "He's wakin up, come get him" so then Benjamin came in and pulled and tugged on my arms and feet and pulled me out of bed (not really I helped him).

I got them up, diapers changed and headed out for coffee because we were out. I also got the boys a muffin. We came back home and had breakfast and then the boys got down to play etc... well after a little while I hear Caleb start crying and Benjamin had pushed him over. So I gave Benjamin a spanking and put him on the couch for time out (he is crying and all upset) then he starts choking... I didn't know he had found popcorn on the floor, decided to eat it and then all the crying made him inhale it. So I had to flip him over and start beating on his back. He finally recovers and my heart is in a complete panic! Benjamin chokes a lot and I am going to have to talk to the doctors about it. He should not be choking so much. Anyway...right after this happens I realize both boys have poopy diapers so I walk in their room to get the diapers and can't find the wipes. I come out and start looking for the wipes... I turn around and Caleb has climbed up on top of the coffee table and is bouncing on his knees. Two seconds later, before I can get to Caleb, Benjamin pushes him head first off the coffee table onto the hardwood floors! He is screaming, and I told Benjamin he is getting a spanking, so he is screaming before he even gets it. Now Caleb has a huge knot on his forhead. We have recoverd and benjamin is watching a movie so I can go take a shower and caleb is now napping. It has been quite a morning and I am going to completely enjoy getting my hair done today!!! Thank you GaGa for watching the boys so I can have a few hours of quiet!!!

Oh the joys of having boys!
