Me: "Okay Tuck it's time to get ready and go run some errands."
T: "WHAT? I don't want to go. I'm staying here."
Me: "No, you have to go. I can't just leave you here. Some BAD guy might come and get you."
T: "Okay, fine but you have to buy me some candy."
Me: "No, I'm not going to buy you candy and you better hurry up or you're not going to get to play with Deklin later." (Deklin is his BFF.)
T: " Okay then, I'm gonna get lost."
Me: " Oh ya, well maybe the policeman will find you and put you in jail."
T: "You're the meanest Mom EVER."
Me: "Oh ya."
T: " I think I will just jump out of the car when you're driving."
Me: "Okay you do that, now come on we have to go." (Note to self: CHILD LOCK)
Now I can just go run my errands while he is at preschool and don't have to worry about buying him candy, losing him in the store, or him attempting to jump out of the car. What a little stinker. He does have his moments though.

Look at that smile!!! i love it and I'm happy for you that you don't have to have any kids when you go run errands, that should cut your errand time in half at least...well it does for me anyway. :)
1) What exactly do they teach at "Pee-School"? How to properly pull down, aim, and fire? How to lift the lid with one hand and hold with the other? Maybe learn the "no-hander"?
2) Deklin? Give me those parent's names so I can call CPS.
What is your crazy afternoon schedule all about? Please do tell.
And have I told you how much I luvers me some Tuck with short hair? LOVE.
Have fun on errand time.
My kids are the SAME Way...they hate errands. Yeah for preschool!!!
Super cute kid. I love the conversation. That just makes me laugh. Glad he's got his turn to go to school.
Anna, I seriously think you are the most hilarious person I have ever met!!! Your kids are so funny!! Good LUCK!!!
Yea for time ALONE!!! I am super jealous. Tiffany has been driving me crazy since the big kids started school. That and watching a lot fo TV. :)
I think buying the kid candy is the least you could do to thank him for acompanying you on your errands. Who wouldn't want to hang out with that guy alone all day?
Daily errands? I agree with Tuck, that sucks! The only way I'd do that is if I could go through a drive thru and buy a Diet Coke (adult version of candy). Congrats on have some free time, though!
Little Tucker looks so cute on his first day! As far as the candy goes though, I'm proud of you. Really sticking to your guns! I am the worst, I get so flustered when we are out running errands that I'll do about anything to get them to behave. Oh it never works though. Blythe looks so cute without those teeth.
I have this fantasy about a day when I can run errands all alone. Preschool seems like an errand to me.
Tucker is a hoot! Never a dull moment with that kid!! I spent almost the whole day with him and I'm literally Tuckered out! Get it? Tuckered out? I'm just kidding, I just thought it was funny! Anyway thanks for the great day! Let me know next time you are going you are going to be in the Twilight Zone!

I love that photo of Tucker! And Becca hates running errands with me too. She's just not smart enough to come up with threats like that.
I just have to tell you. Dylan is so sad that this year Deklin and Tucker are not in his class. He keeps asking when we are going to switch teachers and he can go with his friends. I think they need to play together more on their days "off".
It's a great feeling when you can finally run a few errands all alone.
Congrats to Tucker a preschool and I hope you enjoy every minute of the free time you gain this year!
"Maybe the policeman will find you and put you in jail"! Classic. Glad he is enjoying pee-school.
I'm LOL as I'm reading your posts and my kids are wondering what's up- "Trent pulled Blythe's tooth out at Stake conference" and well, I couldn't express this thought: "your mommy didn't pay for your certain surgery, so let the kids deal with their own braces!"
JK, I'm glad my teeth are straight too;) I think our boys will cost us 4 Thou this year, Baby!
Good luck and I'm glad you'll get threat free time now.
Movie conversation clarification:
(Moulan Rouge, Chicago)
Love all kinds of movies, I stay away from my own temptations.
I wished I would have said that in the moment. No judgements:)
There are no bloggin clicks you silly girl. You've bee busy that's all. Listen, I'm mailing you this poo loaf just to prove it to you. Aren't you essited?
Um wait, I need the proof first, so send me the loaf okay? I have big plans for it. I am supposed to take dinner to someone next week, so be quick about it.
Sooooo, today Char kept asking if he could go see "the GOOD Tucker" and his dog Sunny. It was hard to get to him to understand the drive involved in that sorta play date. I had him draw a picture instead. Keep your eyes out for the mailman!
We need to do more lunches now that Tuck is in "pee-school". Soon...sound good?
