Mason's new mouse

The poor thing has no hope in this family. It is sitting temporarily on the dining room table (Yes I know that is gross). Darren and Mason picked out the biggest mansion for the mouse that I am not sure where we are gonna put it. Any way, this is what I saw today. Not a good sign!

Madison trip

I was lucky enough to go to Madison, wi with 140 fourth graders from school. It was a lot of fun. We started off at the Madison Zoo and then went to the capital. We had a tour of the capital building. It was a very gorgeous building. I learned all about Wisconsin history (don't know anything since I didnt go to school here). Here are a few pictures.

This even hurt me...

From Parents magazine

"The toliet-seat cover slammed down on my son's penis." Heather Miller's 2 year old son Lucah had just learned to use the potty and liked to stand. One morning he went to the bathroom on his own and seconds later Miller heard the toilet slamming and a scream-the lid had fallen and crushed his penis against the seat. Blood was squirting out his urethra so Miller took him to the ER, where he had to stay until he could urinate. "His penis was extremely swollen ans so bruised it turned black. We had to push fluids for the next 24 hours because otherwise the blood would clot and block his urethra, making it painful to pee, " says the mom from Loveland, CO. " he still stands but now I go with him."
