I'm not listening...

to mommy anymore!! So I need to tell my side of the story about what has happend this week. It's going to be long so read carefully. On sunday afternoon we were playing outside, mommy was throwing around the balls and poppa was showing me how to juggle, but when I'm outside I like to play pretend. I pretend that I'm on one of those reality tv shows I hear about and try to see if I could make it in the wilderness. So I was sitting under the tree building up my taste for mulch, when mommy starts hollering something "blah,blah,stop,blah,mulch" I turned and showed her the piece I was sampling and went on my way. She hollered again (this time I heard her) "Augie stop eating the mulch" so I didn't want to get in trouble so I started to look for something else. When like a diamond in the rough there in front of me was a new object for me to try, I put the unknown thing in my mouth tasted it, spit it out to inspect it, put it back in and then spit it out as mommy came charging over. Well then it was a blur, mommy was screaming poppa was gagging and I was in the kitchen sink with bubbles!!! Now it's funny that when I'm in the bath I'm not aloud to eat bubbles but she was shoving them in my face saying "yuck,blaa,rinse Augie" Then I heard her say to poppa "it was a dead baby bird!!!!" That's when I did a double take, that little thing was a baby bird? It didn't have any feathers hmmmm. Well I learned my lesson because now I have the BIRD POX,(the Dr called them the Chicken Pox) but I didn't eat a chicken. So I'm home now banned from school for 21 days,I can't go swimming at my Cousin's birthday party and I can't see my friends or teachers at school. All because Mommy told me to try something else. Had I just stuck with my mulch strategy I wouldn't be stuck here with the Bird Pox.

So that is the true story of what went down on sunday,I still love my mommy but I'm going to be a little more hesitant of what she says. Here are a couple pictures that she took, if you notice in the one I kind of look like I have bird lips. (Miss Liz if you're reading this, let everyone know I will be back and don't forget about me!!!!)

I'll keep you all posted on my outdoor survival adventures.
