On my mind this moring:

Elisabeth is sooooo close to swimming on her own.

Jude climbed out of his crib the weekend...twice. I love the land of cribs, where you just give a kiss, say goodnight, and shut the door... the big boy bed not so much.

I lost my coffee this morning. I set it down...somewhere? I am sure I will find it later some place crazy like the oven.

&

"Did you eat a lot of paint chips as a kid?" " haha...why?"... can anyone name that movie??

Losing your coffee...haha. I've made mine before, left it because I was so busy, reheated in the microwave, and then turned off the beeping reminder that it was ready because I was busy with something else and finally forgot that it was in there. : )

Duh... Tommy Boy. Haha ohmygosh you need to live next door to me. And how about losing the milk gallon? Did that a few months ago. Found it in the tupperware pantry the next morning.

P.S. Who knew you could do so much with paint chips?!

Cute & creative! I don't drink coffee so I can't relate but I always lose my phone in the morning & it always seems to be in my closet of sitting on a stack of jeans when I start dialing it from my sister's phone lol

The comment about losing your coffee makes me laugh, and the thought of you finding it in the oven makes me laugh even harder. I can TOTALLY relate. The freezer is my go to place when I lose something. Can't find the car keys...check the freezer :)
