as of late Bryson has been very obsessed with who is watching him throughout any given day. in fact when he first wakes up he asks, "who is watching me today?" i realize that most kids have some sort of stability - either one of their parents are home, or they are at daycare or a nanny, but i think for the majority of children it is fairly constant...not so much here. one week i could be with them all week, the next it could be Bryan, or the next we could have a sitter and both B and I are in the office. it changes...always...organically...based on the needs of the office and we cant really predict it sometimes. anyway - i always thought that our kids would love this - that they would get daddy and do daddy things and when they have mommy they get to do mommy things...but with bryson i can sense this is affecting him in a negative way and he needs more stability. and he definitely needs more mommy time...this also happens to be my busiest time in the office - end of the month and end of the year...so i knew i had the day today to spend with my boys and bryson was oh so excited, so i thought it would be fun to take them to disneyland...and it was...for a while...until this happened. we were playing in a little play area in toon town and he fell off a watermelon. there was a lot of blood. all the other parents were freaking out. i mean freaking out. what a horrible thing to do! i mean the poor kid is already scared people...i just kept telling him its fine, its just a cut lip and there is a lot of blood cause there is a lot of blood in your lip...and that seemed to freak out the parents even more... "you should go to medical services" "he needs first aid" "are you okay, buddy?" - people...its a split lip...a cut - he is fine...you never cut your lip before? he'll live...even without a disney first aid person making me sign some waiver before they even look at my child (j/k i dont know if they really do that - i never went). anyway - the funny part of the story is that bryson kept crying. i asked if he was crying cause it hurt or if it was because of all the blood and he said, "no...its cause i want to still go on a ride"....okay...so lets wait till the bleeding stops and we'll go on a ride. this is my life with boys...very boyish boys...

Darn Toontown...dangers left and right...did you know last time I went I asked if the Jolly Trolley still ran and they sounded shocked and were like "No! It's far too dangerous!" Yeah, I know, I drove it for two summers.
