Over-reaction...

Good Morning -
I have just a minute...as usual, to write down a couple funny stories before I forget them. Last week, Friday maybe, I walked into my bathroom to find a ridiculously large at the time what I thought was a spider on my shower curtain. So, being as brave as I am got a shoe, and tried to get it. However it was to my surprise that this thing JUMPS! And he somehow knows right when I'm coming. He's a fast little bugger. So now he is on my floor near the toilet, and I try one more time with my shoe and he jumps a couple more times. Thats when I realize I needed a different strategy. I know it sounds crazy now, but I grabbed my can of aerosol hairspray and shoot. However that didn't last long because is just jumps around a little more. At this point I had to go the bathroom so bad, but dont because I am worried about the spider/cricket coming near me. So, I leave him in there, hoping i'll come back to him already dead because of the hairspray right. Wrong. Now he is just gone, and I still need to go to the bathroom! But of course I dont until later that day when Josh is home and can go inspect the bathroom for me! It wasnt until 2am the next morning that I find my new little enemy in Henry's bedroom on the floor just under his crib!! I weighed my options and decided the only thing to be done was wake up Josh. He wasnt very happy with me but after just a few jumps Josh was able to get the little guy. YAY! (I am hoping it was the same cricket that was in the bathroom...EW! crickets!? EW!)

My other funny story that I wanted to write down really fast was that just the other night when I was getting back into bed after a 2am feeding with Henry, I was adjusting the twisted up blanket when Josh (in his sleep) grabbed a big chunk of it. So I climbed in bed and tugged on the blanket just a little when he tugged back, and rolled right of the bed! At first I was startled! There was a big heap of husband and blanket on the floor. It takes just a second before Josh climbs back into bed, and thats when I start laughing almost to the point of peeing my pants. Who rolls out of bed?! My dear sweet husband, thats who.

Until our next fun adventure......
