I’m going to have to figure out a way to keep a running list of Bubba’s sayings….

Obviously, you all know that Bubba is not his first name.  We do call him that frequently, though.  Last night, I was trying to get Bubba’s attention.  I said – hey, Bubba – get back in here.

He said:  Mom, remember me?  I’m not Bubba, I’m Regan!  He really was offended. 

We tried to explain that was his nickname, after we stopped laughing!

As if I could ever forget Bubba!

On the heels of the last post about Bubba, I had to share one more thing about him.

He will soon be three, so my titles are going to have to change! 

He says the funniest things.  Typically, he is my main source of entertainment during the day (besides The Young and the Restless!)

He is sitting at the kitchen table with me, eating his breakfast.  I am working on the laptop.  Today, he is having a bagel and hot chocolate.  He has been going back and forth, finishing the cocoa. 

He picks up his mug of hot chocolate, takes a drink, and says – “Mom, I just farted.”  Then he gets down from the table and goes to watch his movie.

Thanks for sharing!

Have you ever been in a situation where you’ve lost something and the place that you find it is so obvious that you can’t believe you didn’t look there? 
Last winter, my husband was getting ready to officiate a basketball game.  He had made a pile in our room of all of the items he needed to have ready to go.  On top of this pile was our Garmin.  Our 2 year old, Bubba, was is in the stage of getting into stuff that he shouldn’t be in.  So, my husband lovingly reminded me that I needed to make sure Bubba didn’t get his little paws on the Garmin.

I remember double checking once in the afternoon that it was still in the same spot.  After that, I don’t remember checking on it again until my husband got home from work and we discovered that it was missing.  In my defense we typically keep our door shut, so he doesn’t have much opportunity to be in there.  That day I was doing laundry and going in and out of the room. 

We searched everywhere.  Every crevice, every bed, every drawer.  We moved our bed -  no Garmin.  We dumped out toy boxes – no Garmin.   I was so irritated, and I told myself that it will turn it up, in a place that we never would expect. 

As months went on, (yes months) I became even more convinced that he had thrown it in the garbage and we unknowingly took the garbage out.  Where else would it have gone? 

By this past July, (this event occured in like February) I was certain it was gone forever. It hadn’t turned up and I ended up buying my husband a new one for his birthday. 

Last weekend, we replaced the VCR/DVD combo set that we had in our bedroom.  My husband picked up the old one and heard a rattle.  He shook it again, and heard a rattle.  He opened the VCR slot and what was on top of the tape?  Can you guess?….That’s right – the Garmin!

Now, I have three children.  All three of them have wanted to stick items in places they don’t belong.  The VCR has been a primary target.  My question to myself is this - Why in the heck didn’t we check there?  Not once did I even as much THINK about opening that little slot and taking a peek.  As a matter of fact, I have tried to tape on that VCR.  It was old and didn’t work, and I never even tried to take the tape out. 

So, it is official….my kids have taken what is left of my good sense.  But, at least we found that Garmin!
