I've got crabs....well one...

"Okay everyone you better behave today. Thank goodness you have school. Hey get over here. Are you listening? Stop picking on your sister. No acting up while we have guests. No I don't know if they will still be here when you get home. Just plan on being good. Where's my straightening iron??? Oh there it is. Okay hurry everyone. They are on thier way! Remember what I said. Do I look okay?"

"Hey SITSta's! Welcome to my little corner of bloggy land. I hope you find everything to your liking. I'm headed out to go camping with the family tomorrow (That's good blog fodder) So if I don't get over to your place to say Thank You just remember I will as soon as possible. I hope you all enjoy your visit and your long weekend! Be safe and have fun. *MUAH* Help yourself to anything you find....just no long distance calls please."


I lead a boring life. Just wake up, work, sleep, repeat..LOL. Nothing really crazy happens here. Not like you read on other blogs.

Until now...

So Little Man got a fish tank for his b-day in April. Up til now he has only had a beta in it. Well it passed today. No biggie - Little Man wants to know if they can go get the little fish for the tank.

I should of never sent him with his dad. My first mistake.

They come home. Little Man is so proud of his purchase. Five little fish and a CRAB. Yep a crab (what did you think I was going to have THOSE crabs???).

So tonight I am just going to bed like I do every night. Check on the kids. LittleMan's light is on in the tank so I figure I'd go look since I hand't seen the new fish yet. I see something on top near the hole in the lid. I start thinking what did he put up there. I'll have to tell him not to put toys up there. WAIT what was that? It moved. Toys don't move (except on ToyStory - where's Buzz when I need him??) OMG *gasp* it's the crab!

So I'm move to the stairs to call Chef. "Come UP here NOW." -I say He's says what? (He's mad cause I pulled him away from his show). I screech quietly "In there (pointing to LittleMan's room). The CRAB is OUT."

So we creep back in there to find Little Man sitting up in bed pointing at the tank (here I thought I had been SO quiet!). They both look at the tank and then at me. They BOTH start laughing. BRATS!

I immediatley tell them that the crab HAS to go. It's out of here. Chef is like no I'll just tape the hole up. "There's TWO holes!" I say. Yes I'll tape them both he replied. NOPE! It's gone. OUT OF HERE!. Little Man says that it's okay he'll just go get a little frog instead. (have I mentioned he's my fav child? No I haven't? Okay good cause that would make me a BAD mommy). Chef says no we will keep the crab. Yeah we'll see who wins.

Now I can't sleep.
