We've Got Mail!

Saturday, February 9, 2008-After making the hectic trip to Costco (not that it is far away, but there are just so many people there!), we stopped by "The Pie" Pizzeria (http://www.thepie.com/enter.htm) on our way home for dinner. (There's a restaurant in South Jordan.) Well, before heading into the restaurant, we saw several children ice skating just outside the SJ Library (which happens to share the open space/ walk way to The Pie), so of course, we just had to have a look. The children "skated" with their shoes on around this small ice skating rink (forgot the camera). Because we hit 41 F today, the ice was very slushy. When we got home, finally, the children's pants and shoes were soaked, so I took them off and just let them run wild until tubby time. That is why both children are pantless-FYI...

Any who, before putting the children in a bath, I thought I would get all the laundry folded and put away since the kiddos were having fun playing-don't ask me what, I just listen to make sure they are still breathing. (Darrin was preoccupied with the Spongebob game on his Wii to notice what the children were up to.) It wasn't until I heard Jack say: "Mommy, you've got mail" and tried to hand me what I thought was a tissue. (Megan has this notorious ability to unroll a brand new roll of toilet paper and string it around the house.) Well, this time, they happened to open a brand new package of baby wipes and stuff them into Megan's hoodie and present it to me like "mail". As I ran to go get my camera (how could you be mad?), Jack chased after me with wipes in hand saying: "Mommy, mommy, don't forget your mail..." Of course, once they saw dad on the Wii and Spongebob on the tv screen, that was that! The "You've Got Mail" was history.
