Boogers

Remember those little pink paper hearts I talked about awhile back and how they kept "showing up" in wierd places. Well, they have been replaced by little green boogers. I wasn't even sure I wanted to write about this but I have to know if other kids are doing the same thing or if it's just my kid (in which case, I lay all blame upon his father). I've found boogers on my couch, the walls, the stair rail. Recently I went to get Calvin out of his carseat, only to find four (yes, four!) boogers smeared on the door. Yuck! I've tried to explain to Calvin how gross that is and that he needs to get a kleenex to wipe his nose. One day I caught him with a booger (sometimes he tries to hand them to me or other people - sorry Uncle Nate) and I told him to go get a piece of tissue paper and put it on there. Guess what I found when I went to the bathroom later? Boogers stuck to the toilet paper, still on the roll!!! And that has happened more than once! Is anybody else having this problem????

Oh, Steph! Oh, Steph!!!! I don't even know what to say! That little story made Andy and I laugh out loud. And I'm very sorry (well, not really!) to say Tate doesn't do that fun stuff. You are such a lucky mom ;)

Ha! That's hilarious. I've definitely been handed boogers from Ethan, but I have yet to find them around the house. Perhaps I'm one of the lucky(?) ones, my kid probably just eats them:)

Gunner does dig for gold in very inappropriate places and always in front of Grandma; but doesn't leave me presents afterwards. If nothing else that makes for a totally hilarious story(sorry)! This goes under the "I am sure it's just a phase" category!

Never found any on walls or toilet paper (that was hilarious!!) but I have seen him wipe them on his pants, the carseat, and blankets. Most of the time he'll tell me that he needs a kleenex while waving his gooey finger in front of my face....boys are gross!!!!!!

Ok I don't know if you jinxed me or what but, lo and behold what did I find smeared on Grant's freshly painted walls today after his nap? That is right a booger! Thanks a lot! :-)

Yuck!!!! I can handle vomit, diarrea, owies or almost anything else but not boogers. I used to see my cousin eat them as a kid and I still start gagging just the thought of it. Can't believe Holley found one after the post...too hilarious. I bet you wish you were still finding hearts, ha,ha.
