"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

Wenlock and Mandeville SUCK and terrify as mascots. I'm with Steph on that one (and I liked the Vancouver ones).

Dylan just ran through the sprinklers at the playground and then ran back to me crying "I'm wet I'm wet!" Am I a bad Mommy if my response was "well, no duh, you were in the sprinklers"?

HA! No. That's the world of natural consequences. Last week when Noah was a tool about watering the garden (throwing the watering can etc) I sprayed him with the hose (on shower as opposed to jet stream) and he cried and was pissed. I felt like I had firehosed him but still thought it was funny. Perhaps that's a bad mom.

I want a medal for getting the twins into bed before 8:10 by myself since K is at hockey. Granted it didn't stick and Noah is still up and talking, but getting them both down with all of the things that have to happen at 8 (Grace gets breathing treatment + meds + feed) is a feat.

“Not dead yet!”

I just got dissed by the London mascots on Twitter!

how, Barb?

Also, scratch my self-congratulatory previous post. Just as I posted I heard Noah yelling, "Kafrin! Kafrin!" So I walked in and there he was, perched on the rails of Grace's crib with his knee JAMMED into the rail itself. Sigh. I fail.

I mentioned that they looked like they were from the Doctor Who alien reject archives with a link to one of the pictures and got this in return:

@BarbFerrer We're convinced that you are one more clueless American! (Though we admit to being Starbucks addicts.) #mascotsFTW

Whoa. Way for them to make friends and influence people.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Oh snap!

I've never been dissed by creepy fictional one-eyed faceless penile-looking Olympic mascots.

...lucky you.

The Vancouver mascots would never have done that. They would have offered to bring Tim Horton's for everyone.

So he's picked up what you and K call each other? My mom laughed that while every other toddler was screaming some variation of Mom, her's was screaming MARCIA! Lasted for me until kinder, and then I called them mom and dad variations.

Even the one that was part killer whale!

I actually have a mcdonald's toy of one of the mascots bobsledding that we got when we went to the olympics. It's on my desk at work.

I know... I feel sort of warm and squooshy inside.
