I think I’ve mentioned before that Shmoo sometimes thinks it’s funny to stick his hand down his throat and make himself gag.
We find this disturbing. He finds it hysterical. We’re trying not to have any reaction to this in hopes he will stop. Like I said, it’s not all the time, but on occasion.
Thursday night, as we were attempting to get out of the door for dinner, he was standing in the dining room testing his gag reflex. I was trying to distract him when he was successful and puked on himself and all over the hardwood floor.
I had my hands full and Lois was around the corner with her hands full. I found myself shrieking as he decided to step in it and dance in it laughing his ass off.
My attempts to grab him with one arm and hold him out of the puke while trying not to let my voice rise too many more octaves made Shmoo laugh even more.
Ugh. So gross.
So, how was our weekend?!?!!?
It was AWESOME!
Saturday was amazing and I am making anyone I know in CT play next year. It’s just a fun tournament and I get to hang with people I never see.
We took about 10-15 mulligans per person in one round of golf (Scramble) but we still were no where close to winning.
Drinking beers around the course, laughing our asses off, cheering, etc. We were obnoxious and had a f*ing blast!
Sunday was another perfect day.
It was the first weekend day in as long as we can remember that we had zero plans.
We did go to church. Shmoo was a gigantic burst of energy and volume during the entire service. It made things stressful for us, but the churchgoers loved it and were very forgiving that we hadn’t been there for months.
After church, the wife and I did something we haven’t done in 8+ years.
We took a nap.
It was amazing.
Shmoo woke up from his nap after only an hour and he led us into our bedroom. All 3 of us collapsed on our bed and we just snoozed.
I can’t remember the last time I took a nap. It was perfect.
Not much got done yesterday. We made it to the grocery store, but we didn’t iron or do laundry or clean out our cars.
We made homemade nachos for lunch and watched TV in the afternoon, lying on the coach.
Ahhhhh…..
Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend.
It I can charge the batteries in my camera, I will post a recent picture or two soon.

Ewwwww! Thankfully the gagging isn’t something I’ve had to put up with yet. I hope KJ is right!
I’m glad you managed to have a good weekend despite the barf!

Ugh, I’m so sorry about the puking incident. I’ve heard of kids doing this and it’s probably pretty common, although I’m sure it’s not much fun to deal with!!
Glad you had a nice relaxing weekend. We did too!

NAPS are WONDERFUL!!!!!!! We occassionally nap on the weekends, and Cam doesn’t even nap any more! He lets us rest while he plays or watches TV. It’s awesome! Glad your weekend was good, well minus the vomit!

The puke is gross and funny in a I’m-glad-it’s-not-me kind of way.
Naps are awesome and I want one right now.
