Just when I thought we had nothing to blog about.

I have been wondering if i would really be able to jump in and start blogging again. Our life is fun and a little crazy but, blog worthy? I wasn't sure. Until yesterday.

Aidan had his little friend over and all the kids were running around having a great time playing together when suddenly, I heard a big crash followed but a frantic little, "Oh no! Oh no!" Experienced enough in motherhood enough to know that that is never a good sign, I ran in the kitchen to see for myself what the problem might be.
To my dismay I found our new drinking fountain laying on the ground with water spraying out!!




Once I was somewhat able to regain my cool, I summoned the kids to find out what had happened. Aidan responded, "It is all my fault. I was walking on top of the counter and I thought it would be a good idea to stand on the drinking fountain. I don't think it was a good idea anymore."
WHAT!!
I lost it again. My smart little neighbor decided he wanted to go home at this point. Very wise I thought.

Long story short, with the wisdom of my father, the moral support of my handy neighbor and my husband's mad plumbing skills, it appears to be up and running again. YEAH! Crisis averted.

Wow...look at you...a drinking fountain! I would never have thought to put one of those in my house.

Glad your husband has mad plumbing skills. Let's hear it for handy husbands!

I grew up with a drinking fountain in my house. It is SO convenient with a bunch of little ones. I have always wanted to have one in my house. Love it.
You baby is so precious by the way! Congrats!

Holy crap! At least Aiden was honest, right? I gotta get me a drinking fountain!
