My Little Table Dancer

When I found out I was having a little boy I knew I was in for an awakening. I grew up with a sister in a house full of antiques and breakables and hardly anything ever got broken. I knew having a boy would mean there would be rough housing, things would get broken, and dirt would probably be abundant. What I didn't expect was for all of this to happen so early.


Notice anything missing?



As I was talking to my sister on the phone yesterday I felt the table slip out from under my elbow. When I turned to see what happened, I found Ethan holding my dining room table leg. My little incredible hulk had yanked it right off. I'm fairly certain it must have been loose already for him to have been able to get it off without me even noticing. But alas, my table is now 3-legged. I decided to disassemble it and Ethan, well...he's my little table dancer.


Boys...can't live with them and most definitely, can't live without them!


Now someone please tell me what I'm going to do about the lunch I'm hosting on Saturday? Guess we will be eating in our laps!

    No he didn't!! I had this same thought when we found out we were having a boy. My husband is accident-prone so it's going to be double the trouble. I'm already running around jumping to catch things! Hope you get the table fixed for Saturday!
