Ahhh, yes I love little girls who like to paint pretty pictures on events that aren't so pretty. This morning I walked into my kitchen with the girls for breakfast and a MOUSE skittered across my counter top into my sink, then out of my sink and then behind my dishwasher!!! AHHHH! Seriously I was about to die, I just stared and screamed like a little girl and woke up Dan with my screaming and he did nothing but stand there and stared at me. While the whole time my girls had huge smiles on their faces! Haven mostly stared at me (I think I scared her with my scream) but deep down I know she was thinking of Jac and GusGus. Myah just said "oh, cute...I want to see it's pink nose." So Dan just recommended that we call over our neighbors with their two cats and have them live with us for a few days. Me not being a fan of cats and knowing that wouldn't actually solve the mouse problem I decided to call for an EXTERMINATOR!!! hahaha, I was going to get rid of those nasty suckers where ever they were.
Little random things my girls said and/or did throughout the day went something like this...
Myah found her little pet stuffed mouse and was cradling it like a baby and asked me for some cheese, I figured it was for her, but she just let her mouse "eat" it. Haven and Myah both figured that he was going to help Ratatouille make some meals, they started thinking of all the places it could be while all the while I was hoping for all the places it hasn't been. ALL they wanted for lunch were snacks that mice would eat...cheese, crackers and more cheese! They were fascinated by the idea that we don't have a pet right now and that it wanted to be our pet. Myah wanted to cuddle later today and started tickling my face and said "mom, does that feel like a mouse is on your face?" EWEEE.
Luckily for me Bill the EXTERMINATOR was able to come out a half hour after I called him. He did a full inspection of our entire home and is warranted for a whole year! Luckily he found nothing upstairs which is where the playroom and other bedrooms are but on the main floor he did find some "droppings" (that word is so heinous) behind my fridge, washer and dryer, garage, and my bathroom behind my toilet! But the worst was down in the basement and crawlspace which is somewhat okay because it is unfinished and we aren't ever down there, it is also where he solved the problem...they were coming in from a little whole that ran through the air conditioning pipes to the outdoors. So he sealed everything up and put some traps in the garage and "FOOD" for the mice downstairs and stuffed steel wool in all the little holes throughout the house. I am so grateful for Bill! Bill is my new best friend! If you need any help with your gusgus let me know I know a great guy that can come and help with it all...BILL!

I HATE MICE! I have never had an encounter but I can only imagine. Your girls seriously are hilarious! I can't I can see that whole thing in my head, Dan's facial expression and yours. Oh I miss you guys. Why weren't there jobs in Portland?
NASTY!!! And you're Preggers . . . that is gross. Sorry for my lack of blogging. I'm really trying to work it back into my schedule. I do miss it and I'm so guilt ridden it's driving me crazy.
Haha that made me laugh danielle. Your cute kids! We found a mouse in our house too. Well, a couple of them. It was this past summer while we were gone, so we set out some mice killer food and when we came back we found 2 or 3 dead mice. It was sick but I'm glad they are gone! EWWWW
Pretty funny story girl! Glad it didn't throw you into labor!
Your family is too cute! I love and miss you guys and can't wait to meet Cohen (I'm sure you can't either!)
We have had mice -- eating Cotton's dog food! Yuck! So disgusting. I was so happy to get rid of them. Why is it that mice are always so cute and cuddly in the movies, but it isn't true in real life? Ratatouille is a darling movie but it still almost makes me gag to see all those mice in the kitchen!
