Is this adorable or what?
So last week Claudia came up to me at story time and said, "I heard Audrey say, Hallie." And I have to admit Claudia I was thinking "um I don't think she does." :)
Sure enough the next day hallie walked in the room when she woke up and Audrey says in her sweet little voice, "Hallie!" It was so cute. So Claudia was the first one to hear Audrey say it and she does say it! I can't believe she will be 1 tomorrow!
Please disregard my high and rather annoying voice! :)
I had to start one!
Okay so when something happened to me one of the first things I thought was, "I should blog this." Then after telling Emily my story on the phone she said, "You should start a blog and write about this!" I just laughed and told her that I actually thought the same thing.
Are you kidding?
So that brings me to this story!
So I went to Claire's school for parent teacher conference yesterday and when I got out, the car wouldn't start. It wouldn't turn over at all...it made no sound so I called Zeb of course. He told me to jiggle the wires to the positive side of the battery and see if the connection was loose. I tried that...nothing. He had me go buy coke and pour it over the corroded part (have no idea how to spell that) and still....nothing. So he borrowed his friend Ned's car and drove 20 minutes to Claire's school. He pops the hood we try and start it a few times and still...nothing. He pulls the car around and I am standing in a parking spot so he can park right next to me and a lady pulls up. I have her roll down her window and I say, "My husband needs to park here, he's gonna jump me!" After realizing what I had just said I had to laugh at myself. Oh, Leah!!! Okay back to the story, so Zeb tries to jump start the car....nothing. He tried revving the engine of Ned's car and still...nothing. So at this point he decides we need a new battery. We drive to Auto Zone and buy one. We go back to the car. He starts unhooking the old battery when I see the car moving back and forth quite a bit. I think, "is the car in neutral?" I immediately dismiss the thought...it couldn't be in neutral. A few minutes later my sweet husband comes over to Ned's car and smiles at me. I say, "The car isn't in PARK?" He nods his head. You've got to be kidding me! You guys, I was mortified. I had just wasted like 2 hours of Zeb's time cause I DIDN'T PUT THE CAR IN PARK!!! He was so sweet about it though which made it a lot easier!! He just kept giving me this cute smile. So I follow him back to school so he can give Ned his car back and I say just before he goes into the school, "Don't tell Ned" and Zeb smiles and says, "Oh, I'm telling Ned!" And honestly how could he not? It's such a classic story. So last night I was talking to Cindy on the phone and she says, "So I heard your story!" I was like, "from who?" and she says, "Eric!!!" So I bet all the husbands at law school all know about my lovely story!!!! Well, if they didn't before they do now! Glad we can all (including me) get a good laugh...at my expense!! :)
