You've all heard the excuse..."My dog ate my homework!"
Well, today I went to go grab my appointment book which I often call my Bible because it holds EVERYTHING I need to know to function on a daily basis! I found it on the floor near the dining room table and there were a few remnants of wet and chewed paper next to it.
JOAQUIN ATE MY CALENDAR BOOK!!!
He helped himself to two pages...this week and next week...and now I'm totally LOST!!!
I'd be freaking out if it wasn't so darn funny. Silly...and apparently hungry...boy!
Now off to figure out what I had planned and scheduled for this week and next. Yikes! Just happens to be two very important and busy weeks in our lives right now!
Living life one day at a time as a family of six...3 busy and bouncy boys and 1 Ukrainian princess. Our third son Joaquin was our unexpected blessing who came to us with a little something extra called Down syndrome and inspired us to adopt Sofia an orphan we fell in love with through Reece's Rainbow. We hope that our story will help open people's eyes to the beauty and gift that ALL children are. We are all more alike than different!
That is to funny as I just caught Sam eating some paper that he found on the floor in Cody's room, he eats paper all the time, loves it!! hahaha Hope you find out what you had scheduled.
ReplyDeleteAmazing, of all the weeks, it had to be this one and next week (he couldn't have helped you out by going back a couple of weeks, huh?!) *Sigh*...oh well, gotta love him!!
ReplyDeleteLOL! I can so relate - Malakai also has an 'aquired taste' for anything paper-related!
ReplyDeleteHope you find your way through the next two weeks without forgetting too many appointments!
I would be in the same position as you if Luke got his hands on mine. Little monkey!
ReplyDeleteYes Jennifer, likely story. While I'm working at the schools I'll keep an ear out for more stories.
ReplyDeleteWell, maybe he just needed some fiber in his diet. :-))
You need to keep in all in your phone! He can't eat that. . . or so we think!
ReplyDeleteHa! What a funny story. Madi loves paper too...she's never gone for my calendar though. I can only imagine how lost you feel without it!
ReplyDeleteI think I would die if that happened to me. But a few years ago I switched to an e-calendar (iCal) so it's on my computer, phone, etc. Which is probably good because I'm sure Sheridan would do the same thing Joaquin did :) Maybe he's telling you he wants more fiber in his diet ;-)
ReplyDeletewhat is the deal with these paper eating children??? i just read your post, Jennifer, and I can't believe it!
ReplyDeleteWe survived Whitney's second attempt at getting tubes today with no further paper-eating incidents! :)
hope you can figure out what you have going on this week... good luck!
What is it about kids and paper? I don't mind if they tear it up and play ith it, but both my boys are always eating it! Luckily nothing important tho...
ReplyDeleteThat is TOO funny!!!!
ReplyDeleteHe knew you were a busy mama and wanted to help you clear your calendar. :)
I'm sorry for laughing, but that is hilarious! Obviously the future tastes better than the past!
ReplyDeleteI don't know what else to do but post this in your most recent comments section, but this is something from up here in Canada you might want to check out:

You can sign up at the National Film Board of Canada link in the article and they'll let you know when the film is available for viewing online. I can't wait to see this!
That sounds so awful. Awful funny, (awful tasting) but also just plain awful to have to reconstruct you 2 weeks!!!
