Birthday preparations

We don't make a big deal out of birthdays in this house. So, while I was laying down with Madden tonite I asked him where he'd like to go for his birthday supper Thursday. He told me he wanted one of those mousse cakes... the ones you get at Sobeys... (McCain's cake) and he wanted to go to Swiss Chalet for his birthday supper & he wants to order ribs. I said, "Sure thing! And they'll be coming to the table singing Happy Birthday with their tambourines!" His response was, "OH NO! NONE OF THAT! NO SINGING... they're strangers! And they can stick the tambourines up their arses!"

😁

Future preparation...

So, I'm standing at the kitchen counter eating supper whole Kyle is eating his in the living room watching the LPGA on tv.

Madden leans in close to me and says,

"You know, Mom. When Dad grows up & you pass away (if you pass away before him), I'm pretty sure he's going to marry Brooke Henderson or the other half-Asian girl on the LPGA..."


Crickets.

Feeling older...

Madden was in the tub tonite & was hollering and hollering for mom.

"I want MOM! M-O-M! Not you, Dad! I want MOM!"

So I walked into the bathroom to find him in there with a huge beard and moustache made of soap suds.

He looks at me, points up & says,

"Pass me the razor there, eh, Mom?!"

Lol

Hockey season has started

Last weekend after hockey Madden STUNK. He smelled of dirty little boy & hockey gear. Lol. So we made him get in the shower as soon as he got home. 2 minutes into the shower he yells, "I'm done!" Kyle said to him through the shower curtain, "You are NOT done! Get some suds on that facecloth, wash your face, your neck, under your arm pits, and between the cheeks of your arse! And do a good job!"
Madden replies, "THERE IS NO WAY I'm WASHING BETWEEN THE CHEEKS OF MY ARSE WITH A HABS FACECLOTH!!! GET ME ANOTHER FACECLOTH!" We had a pretty good chuckle. And the purple facecloth made him smell nice.

Where did he come from?!

After arguing, complaining, whining and driving poor Kyle nuts over a stupid BATH this evening, Kyle was left pondering genetics (cuz he's so much like his Papa) but also wondering out loud, "Where did you come from?!"

Madden's response... In song was...
"I came from the place where angels are born..."

Oh my.

A holiday weekend, eh?

A PSA on Mother's Day: Always be honest with your mom.

Madden was reading me the Mother's Day card he made for me at school,

"You’re the best mom euvr!”

Me: “ahhhhhhhh! Thanks, Madden!”

Him: “well, uh, only sometimes...”
