Bouillon Cubes Are Not Candy!


Even though Cade is almost 4 years old, he still gets a marshmellow every time he goes to the bathroom. Now that he is pretty independent I also notice that the marshmellow jar seems to empty at a much faster rate, because he takes it upon himself to reward his pottying accomplishments.

Yesterday Michelle went to the store to buy bouillon cubes for dinner. She left the jar on the table and then it soon disapeared. I am sure that she thought that I put them away, and likewise I figured she put them in the cupboard. What a funny surprise it was to find the buillon cube jar right next to the marshmellows in the bathroom (we keep a jar of marshmallows on a shelf in there) with an opened cube half eaten and neatly placed back in the wrapper. I guess it wasn't as tasty as a Reese's peanut butter cup after all. Those foil wrappers are sure misleading!

Hi Guys! (I am Brett Greenwoods wife just in case you don't remember me). Can I just say that I read your blog almost on a daily basis and I love it. You guys seems to do a great job of expressing what life is really like with young children. Keep it up! It is my daily dose of comic relief!

That is so funny! I did that when I was younger, except I ate these green pieces of what I thought was candy. It turns out they were for helping a troubled stomach and boy did my stomach ache when I was done eating the whole package!

I noticed you made a few comments on my blog recently--it's fun to keep in touch this way, even though we have only seen each other a handful of times in our entire lives! I miss going to the Woodbury family reunion as a kid. your kids are seriously adorable.
