The truth is that just about every night this week I&#8217;ve ended up going to bed about eight o&#8217;clock which really hasn&#8217;t left that much time to do much of anything. I&#8217;m not sure what the deal is but I&#8217;ve been really tired and the other night I was asleep before Alex fell asleep. <\/p>\n<p> We started spring cleaning last week and in the process we ended up making things worse before before we could start to make them better. We emptied out one of our closets with the goal of sifting through all the stuff, throwing some it, keeping some, and generally trying to consolidate things into smaller containers. It&#8217;s amazing how six months ago there was no way that we could part with something but now it just ended up in the junk pile. Additionally we ended up side tracked from the main task and coming across things we haven&#8217;t seen for a long time and it turns into &#8220;Oh, remember this&#8221; and &#8220;Oh remember when&#8221;. Reading the comics this week, (I a big comics fan), For Better or Worse summed up what ended happening to us.<br \/> <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"For Better or For Worse\" src=\"http:\/\/www.mceachernfamily.com\/blog\/images\/2006\/fborfw-20060413.gif\" \/> <\/p>\n<p> We are still working with Alex on trying to tone down the &#8220;poopy&#8221; usage. Somehow it seems that every conversion we have with him somehow finds its way back to poop. We were sitting at the dinner table the other night and Jen sat down and said, <\/p>\n<p> &#8220;Man, I&#8217;m pooped&#8221; <\/p>\n<p> &#8220;What does that mean?&#8221; Alex asked. <\/p>\n<p> &#8220;When people say they&#8217;re pooped it means they are tired or they are worn out.&#8221; I told him. This got him thinking for a couple of seconds then he said, <\/p>\n<p> &#8220;But you know when we say &#8220;poopy pants&#8221; it means that someone has pooped in their pants&#8221;. <\/p>\n<p> Just in case you were in doubt on the exact meaning of &#8220;poopy pants&#8221; Alex is here to sort it out for you. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I would like to say that my lack of updates to the website over the last couple weeks have been due to the fact that I&#8217;ve been really busy and things have been completely crazy but that just wouldn&#8217;t be &hellip; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mceachernfamily.com\/blog\/2006\/04\/spring-cleaning-and-poopy-pants-explained.html\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-208","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.mceachernfamily.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/208","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.mceachernfamily.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.mceachernfamily.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.mceachernfamily.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.mceachernfamily.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=208"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/www.mceachernfamily.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/208\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.mceachernfamily.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=208"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.mceachernfamily.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=208"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.mceachernfamily.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=208"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
