his answer was &#8220;dancing in the kitchen.&#8221;\u00a0 Haha!\u00a0 However, his answer for &#8220;My mama weighs__________&#8221; was &#8220;1,015 pounds,&#8221; and he told me he was the only one in the class that knew his mama&#8217;s real weight&#8230;so I&#8217;m not sure if you should totally trust his answers.<\/p>\n<p>.<\/p>\n<p>Ok, so I digressed.<\/p>\n<p>.<\/p>\n<p>After dancing with my girls, I took them to AnnaLeigh&#8217;s bedroom to change her diaper and I laid down on the floor for a few seconds.\u00a0 I had my back on the floor, knees bent, feet on the ground.\u00a0 After about 1 minute of peace, I hear this little voice say, &#8220;You poo-poo, mama&#8221; and before I know it she has a cold, wet wipe wiping me (I still had workout clothes on) and she slipped a diaper under me, much like what she did to <a href=\"http:\/\/therealhousewife.com\/blog\/this-weekend-road-tar\/\" target=\"_blank\">Sam earlier this week<\/a>.\u00a0 I just laughed and told her I didn&#8217;t need my diaper changed, and before I got off the ground, this was coming at my face.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/therealhousewife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/cucumber-and-tomato-salad-079.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1755\" title=\"cucumber and tomato salad 079\" src=\"http:\/\/therealhousewife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/cucumber-and-tomato-salad-079.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"570\" height=\"381\" srcset=\"http:\/\/therealhousewife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/cucumber-and-tomato-salad-079.jpg 570w, http:\/\/therealhousewife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/cucumber-and-tomato-salad-079-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 570px) 100vw, 570px\" \/><\/a>&#8220;You have booga.\u00a0 I need suck you nose out.\u00a0 Be still, mama.&#8221;\u00a0 I was squealing as you can imagine, but I managed to snap this blurry pic with my phone before she tortured me.\u00a0 I guess this was payback for all the times I&#8217;ve done it to her.\u00a0 She was doing to me what she did to <a href=\"http:\/\/therealhousewife.com\/blog\/oh-boogers\/\" target=\"_blank\">this baby doll<\/a> a few months ago.\u00a0 Crazy woman!<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of noses.\u00a0 Yesterday I thought Lilly Katherine&#8217;s nose was bleeding, so I ran to see if she was ok.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/therealhousewife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/cucumber-and-tomato-salad-076.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1758\" title=\"cucumber and tomato salad 076\" src=\"http:\/\/therealhousewife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/cucumber-and-tomato-salad-076.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"570\" height=\"381\" srcset=\"http:\/\/therealhousewife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/cucumber-and-tomato-salad-076.jpg 570w, http:\/\/therealhousewife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/cucumber-and-tomato-salad-076-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 570px) 100vw, 570px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>She giggled and said, &#8220;Oh, I was just smelling markers.&#8221;\u00a0 She must have shoved those things all the way up her nose, because her little nostrils were RED!\u00a0 Again, crummy phone pic.\u00a0 Sorry.<\/p>\n<p>As my friend <a href=\"http:\/\/buntfamily.blogspot.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Leslie <\/a>say, &#8220;Never dull, people!\u00a0 Never dull!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>.<\/p>\n<p>ANYWAY&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>On to my Friday Fav #8<\/p>\n<p>My hair used to be STRAIGHT.\u00a0 When big 90&#8217;s hair was in, I couldn&#8217;t make my hair curl.\u00a0 I would roll it in 4,000 hot rollers every morning to try to accomplish my goal of big beautiful hair.\u00a0 I would painfully sleep with pink sponge rollers snapped all over my head in hopes of beautiful curl.\u00a0 We all know that sponge rollers don&#8217;t produce anything but crazy curl with a big crease where the plastic snap was, but I did it anyway.\u00a0 My <span style=\"text-decoration: line-through;\">mop<\/span> hair would stay curly until around noon&#8230;then it was flat again.<\/p>\n<p>Fast forward.\u00a0 The style is straight hair.\u00a0 Well, God thought it would be funny to give me curly hair now.\u00a0 I finally have the big hair I worked so hard to achieve&#8230;20 years too late.\u00a0 With every pregnancy, my hair has gotten curlier, and bigger.\u00a0 Many days I feel like Monica from <a href=\"http:\/\/sharetv.org\/shows\/friends\/episodes\/204873\" target=\"_blank\">this Friends episode<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>My hair is a curly mess.
