Dishes Finally done

So I have finally washed the last dish from thanks giving. I have finished off the last left over. I love Thanksgiving but find it interesting that it is probably 6-7 hours of cooking for 30 minutes of eating then 4 days clean up!

But worth it for those 3 days of turkey stuffing gravy cranberry sandwiches.

We are heading to go cut down our tree today.

Confused

So, I don't understand how everything in our house is covered in Maple Syrup. I just got done cleaning the kitchen. Table, floors, walls, counters, and yes even the ceiling had syrup on it. I can't think of the last time we even had pancakes... Where is it all coming from? How did they get it on the ceiling?

The second thing that confuses me is this: If Dora leaves bottles all over the house, how come the only time I can't find them is if they are full of milk? What is it about milk, that if left in a bottle makes it invisible to the naked eye until discovered days later? Of course, days later it is no longer milk but a very soft cheese.

How is Eli better at Ipod Games than I am. Granted I don't practice, or play games, I came down this morning and Eli informed me that he "won" the motorcycle game. He has unlocked 3 levels! I wonder what time he got up... and how did he get the Ipod to begin with!

At least I know why it smells like maple syrup!

Parenting

There are a few things that I was not expecting as a parent. I expected sleepless nights poppy diapers and the occasional fever.
I was suprised, however, by what things kids like. Lately, it has been Dora the explorer. I find it kind of odd that one of the main characters is A thief called Swiper. Every episode has some item he is trying to steal and it is our job to stop him.the sad thing is that Swiper is the coolest character in the show. What is that teaching my kids?
Fortunately Diego is way cooler.
Where can I get a rescue pack?

Eli and stitches

One little monkey jumping on the bed. He fell off and cut his head. Dadda was a doctor and he said, "Eli why won't you take a nap?"

So, Eli was supposed to be taking a nap, instead he was jumping off of his bed hit his head on a table. He cut his eye pretty good. Here are some pictures.

At dadda's work place. Note the special treatment, we get 3 beds to ourselves.

Here is the cut up close. Eli was screaming so much that we had to sedate him with Ketamine, that is why his eyes look wierd below. This is what a stoned 3 year old looks like. He did not feel (or remember) a thing.

Up close... poor kid.

This is him waiting for the ketamine to wear off. If your kid ever looks like this they are stoned.

I get to fix little kids all the time. I am really glad I had someone else fix this. You can't be a good dad and a good doctor to the same kid. My buddy Drew did a great job and the nurses in the ER all did a great job.

I had to work immediately after they finished. Eli was still pretty stoned but I took him home and Bridget took care of him till he was fully awake. It took like a couple of hours for the medicine to completely wear off...

Ketamine causes nystagmus or twiching of the eyes both side to side and up and down... pretty funny to watch. If you kid needs stitches, it is a great experience.
