Funny moments of my day

1. Kids are hilarious.
Homeroom mom at school sent a note to go home with the kiddos today.  It gave a rundown of the things we would need parent volunteers  for the final semester.  One of the items was the class would be giving me a baby shower (YEA!), so as I'm reading this to the kids (b/c they always want me to read notes I send home) most of them start laughing when I say the words "baby shower".  You can imagine the image they had in their heads..."what we are going to give Mrs. Case's baby a SHOWER!?" So then come the questions and comments..."Why would we shower at school?", "How will the baby shower if it's still in you?", and my personal favorite, "That would be soooooo crazy to just have your baby and then give it a shower at school!?" Some of them thought it involved an actual shower, for them, me, the baby, not sure...LOL, some thought I would HAVE the baby at school DURING the shower and that was it's purpose, and a rare few knew what I was talking about.  Those few quickly said, "Noooooo...it's like a PARTY, but for the BABY!!!", "Yeah, it's where you get stuff like presents that the baby needs!" 
I laughed so hard...I love my job.
2. My husband is hilarious.
Prior to going for a walk this evening with Jeremy and Guinness, we had changed clothes and were ready to go all but the running shoes.  Our Guinness is a smart one and is not only aware of what clothes we put on when it's time for a w.a.l.k., but he speaks English (we think he's starting to learn to spell as well...) so we often spells things like w.a.l.k. or h.u.n.g.r.y.  Well Jeremy decided just before we were getting the shoes on (that's the final giveaway for the dog to know what's up), he comes into the kitchen and asks, "Do you have your H.O.E.S.'s?" I just looked at him and said, "My H.O.E.S.'s.  No I don't have my hoes." I tried to say this with a straight face....didn't really happen.  I died laughing and of course so did he after he told me again to get my hoes.
I love my husband.

Perplexed

I am honestly perplexed by the information I just found out (or lack of information).  I have a good friend that is preggo and her baby shower is soon, so I was going to be on the ball and get her shower gift asap.  Well the invitation didn't say where they were registered, and I don't want to be annoying to the mom-to-be by calling and asking so what does one do....well I logged onto the good 'ol computer and went to all the baby place websites I could think of in town, and none of them have her or him registered.  So here is the perplexing parts, how are they NOT registered?  what do we get them? I am totally thrown off by this because they don't seem like the kind of people to NOT be excited to pick stuff out, get new stuff, etc... I think something must have physically kept them from going to a store to pick stuff out LOL! I mean if I were preggo, you can bet your bippy that I will be in PotteryBarn Kids as soon as physically possible!!! Like a kid in a candy store...I don't care that they haven't registered- that's not it- I just am not sure what to get them now without it appearing random, and I just want to get them something they will love, the baby will love, they wiill find useful, etc...I don't want our gift to sit in a closet and never be used LOL!  So what can a girl do but to call and bother the mom-to-be by leaving a lovely voicemail saying, "Hello friend, I was wondering if you were registered anywhere for that sweet baby of yours, or if not was there something specific you guys were wanting, or a color scheme-theme for the room that we've got goin' on...if you could help me out with any of that, it would be great! Thanks, love ya, talk to ya later." Hopefully she calls me back with some info or it may be a very random yet entertaining baby shower gift! (But I mean really...registering is a great part of multiple things in life...get scanning!)
