The Mom Song

I'm not sure where Rob got this but I think it is super funny!

Monday, March 30, 2009

This is the newest member of our family. Rob and I made the fatal mistake of going into PetSmart on Saturday. We saw Maggie and obviously couldn't leave without her. We rescued her from the Animal Humane Society or something like that. She has adjusted quickly to our little family. However, we are used to a lazy dog (Cody) and Maggie is nothing but lazy. I think we just bought our form of exercise for this year. But we love her! Cody really liked her in the store but once we got her home he wasn't sure he wanted to share his mommy and daddy with any other doggie. But as you can see they are also adjusting to each other. This little family teaches us patients which I know will come in handy when we finally start having kids.

Have You Seen That Sky Today?

When I saw this picture Rob took I thought about Kronk on Emperor's New Groove. If you haven't seen it you won't understand this post. Anyway, I thought of when Kronk says "Have you seen that sky today? Take about blue." Haha!

Artichokes

My mom used to always cook artichokes for dinner and I LOVED them! Rob said he thought they were gross but said he had not had them in awhile. So I told Rob he needed to try it my way. Or I guess my mom's way. Now I am not sure how you eat artichokes in your family but my mom always dipped them in mayonnaise. Other people like dipping the piece in lemon butter. As you can tell by the pictures Rob wasn't too thrilled with the way my family dipped artichokes. He tried butter after this shot and said it wasn't too bad. But I have a feeling we won't be having artichokes very often in our house.

What A Mess

I was trying to make myself some oatmeal for breakfast. I guess I should have used a bigger bowl! Oops!

Rob's Favorite Candy

Obviously I am making up for lost time. Sorry everybody. Rob's absolute favorite candy is conversation hearts. I have maybe 10 and that is good for a year. But Rob never gets tired of eating them. He decided to share his favorite candy with me in a way that would appeal to me more. And it did!

I LOVE WOOT.COM

I LOVE woot.com! Today's t-shirt for sale is entitled "They Were Delicious!" They always have amazing deals and funny t-shirts. The only bad thing about woot.com is Rob and I don't have money to spend of extra stuff and it is always hard to walk away from an amazing deal. However, we have done a great job of not buying anything on woot.com for awhile now. We just look. Hopefully we will get to point where we can participate in the amazing deals! :)

Richelleisms

I have to explain what my husband most affectionally calls "Richelleisms". Bascially they are things I do or say that are completely crazy. But my husband thinks they're cute.
**NEW**The other day I was at the dentist winched when my mother-in-law started using the sonic machine. She thought she had hurt me but it wasn't my mouth that was hurting, it was my ears. I told her I could hear dog whistles. Anyway, I came home and was telling Rob that story only I said I told her I could hear dogs whistle instead of dog whistles. Rob couldn't stop laughing. Just because I put the "S" in the wrong place in the sentence. I seriously struggle sometimes.
Rob was making shapes with his homemade donuts and I said, "Oh, you tore off the insects antlers!" Rob then asked me when insects first developed antlers.
Today Rob said, "My finger was feeling weird, so I bit it."
Today I put Dawn dish soap in the dishwasher. I didn't think anything of it. I happened to tell Rob just in conversation and he now calls me Lucy (from the I Love Lucy show)! Luckily my husband caught it before we were knee deep in soup suds. And it only took a bottle of vinegar!
My brother-in-law microwaved the Mrs. Butterworth bottle too long and it started to melt the bottle. Not thinking anyone was listening he yelled “Oh no! I melted Mrs. Butterworth. Now she has bad posture! “
When I was asked if I wanted any sauces by the worker in the drive through at Arby's I said "Ya, can I get roast beef?...I mean, Arby's sauce please". I know, I struggle.
The other day I was taking back a book to the library and saw a mom helping her little boy across the parking lot. Well she looked like a friend of mine so I yelled "Hey I.......DON'T know you. Sorry." The back of her head looked like someone I knew but once I started talking to her and she turned her head I no longer knew who she was. That was a little embarressing.
"I had a black gold fish once."
My husband grew up drink wassle during the holidays. Well I had never heard of wassle before. So a couple of years ago I asked Rob "What's a wassle?" Rob laughed super hard.
For the longest time I really did think buffalo wings came from buffalos. I mean why do they call them buffalo wings if they don't come from buffalos. Well recently I found out they got the name for it because the sauce was created in Buffalo, New York.
One Thanksgiving while I was still dating Rob we decided to make some pies to take to his parents house. You have to know that between the two of us Rob is way better at cooking then I am. I was trying so hard to impress him I wanted to make the pie by myself without any help. Big mistake! I was following the recipe so carefully until I dumped 1/2 cup of salt in the batch. I said out loud "Man that is a lot of salt for one pie." As Rob looked over I checked the recipe again. Yeah, it called for 1/2 tsp. of salt, NOT 1/2 cup! I was so embarressed!
Was that a dog barking or just me?"
More often than not I use the word "Pacific" in place of the word "Specific". It just slips out.
A few weeks ago I was driving down the road with a friend and started to honk. She asked what I was honking at. I said there was a bird in the road and I wanted it to get out of the way so I didn't hit it. As we drove closer to the "bird" we discovered it was just a big rock. Man did I feel stupid. My husband will never let that one down.
As much as Rob says I have Richelleisms he has his moments too. One sunny afternoon we were driving down the road and Rob looked at a sign in front of a bakery. The sign read ON SALE Cupcakes - Donut - Cone - Cakes. Right after Rob looked at the sign he turned to me and asked "What's a donut cone?" I couldn't control my laughter! In his defence they did put Donut and Cone on the same line. :)
