The Rules

Mike and Will keep coming up with really fascinating things to do around the house. Most of them include using "white pieces of paper" to draw maps, books, pictures, etc. Well a couple days ago Mike decided he was going to use the paper to write rules for the house. This included drawing a picture for every rule, showing a stick person doing the rule with an "x" through them. Then he and Will hung them all over the house.  Some rules are reasonable, some are just ridiculous.
I have included the whole list of 16 (as dictated by Mike) so you can add a little humor in your day:
1. No reading books when there is a fire
2. No hitting computers
3. No hitting Zach (Zach is Mike's "pet" pterodactyl)
4. No smelling the flowers because you might tip it over
5. No tieing your feet
6. Never stand on the stools to get on the counter
7. No hitting the cabinets
8. No stuffed animals on the first floor
9. No playing on the first floor
10. No farting on someone  else
11. No standing on the rocking chair
12. No dancing on the first floor
13. Always do your jobs when someone asks you
14. No shooting "blazer" guns in Mater the fish's tank
15. No pooping on the floor
16. No sliding down the stairs cause you might hit your head on the last step

Amazing what little minds can come up with.

The boys both had soccer today. It was windy and not the warmest so Chris took each boy to their respective games. I missed seeing the boys in action, but it was also kind of nice to not have to get Jack all packed up for the games. Speaking of the Jackster. I started the Ranitidine (reflux med) last Tuesday. Apparently I should be able to tell a big difference in a week's time, so far nothing earth shattering has changed. He is back to sleeping 3 hours at a time so I should, at least, be thankful for that.
Katelyn came to visit on Saturday. We always love having her around. Despite the November-like temp we still managed a trip to the zoo.
The pics for this post include the "rule papers"  and pics from the warm weather we had this past week. Hope you had an enjoyable weekend. Thanks for checking in with us!
