So the Ultimate It Girl, 6 of 8, comes bounding into the room with this amazing revelation..."Mom, I just figured out that it is so hard to jump on the couch in high heels!"
Thought that it was important for you all to know that...just in case you planned on couch jumping in stilettos this weekend...
I'm all about protecting your ankles.
Making the world safer,
Ah man .. guess I'll take these lovely lady shoes off then.
ReplyDeleteAnd I was all excited for some high fashion bouncing.
*sigh* Thanks Six! And Octamom .. it'd be kinda hard to change diapers with a broken leg, I guess.
;-)
LOL. Such wisdom, at such a young time in her life.
ReplyDeleteHer eyes are gorgeous, BTW.

ReplyDeleteit is good she figured this out so young .. it is really embarrassing to have to go to the ER and explain it when you are older
ReplyDeletekids .. gotta love 'em (I think)
...And a little child shall lead them.
ReplyDeleteYou are one wise woman 6 of 8!
haha, cute! The picture is perfect for it too!
ReplyDeleteNo couch jumping in heels... got it!! ;)
ReplyDeleteHahahaha Yes our children are full of sage wisdom!!!
ReplyDeletePhew! I'm glad I came here first! Thanks for the tip.
ReplyDeleteY'know, part of me really wants to go and try that now!
ReplyDeletehilarious! You should have tips from 6 of 8 once a week or month! She could really help us ladies...
ReplyDelete6 of 8 thank you so much for this helpful hint! That will save me so much heartache from trying it myself!
ReplyDeleteOctamom - don't you just love it when they have these wonderful revelations? I hope she didn't put to many holes in your sofa before she figured this out!
Well, I guess I'll have to leave the couch jumping to Tom Cruise. He can afford to buy new sofas whereas I probably can't.
ReplyDeleteThat is great advice, I will pass it on to those that wear heels. I have been banned from doing so. I am already 6 inches taller than Hubby. He said he feels silly being 10 inches shorter, especially when I rest my arm on his head. :)
ReplyDeleteSeriously, I imagine she is warning you as you seem the joyful sort that would just don those stilettos and bounce along with her...were it not so dangerous, of course! ;)
ReplyDeleteHaha! Good to know.
ReplyDeleteAlthough in this household the kids would be more likely to jump on the couch in snow boots. ;)
it's important to learn that fact at a young age! Hope you have a great weekend...Boomer Sooner!
ReplyDeleteDangit! That was SO my plans for this weekend! Oh well, I'll have to think of something else!
ReplyDeleteYou're so thoughtful, making the world safer one stiletto jumping girl at a time!!
ReplyDeleteSooo funny!
ReplyDeleteMrs. Nurse Boy
I am so glad you warned me. I was just heading that direction.
ReplyDeleteyou have a beautiful family. thanks for sharing such joy with me this day. way to go octamom!
ReplyDeleteI was definitely going to do that this afternoon! I will take her warning seriously... She's too darn cute!
ReplyDeleteIt's less of a fashion warning and more of a health and safety warning. Stilettos are so 2006 anyway.
ReplyDeleteJumping on the couch never goes out of fashion.
how funny!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, how funny!! High heels on a couch could do some serious damage. Hope you guys don't have leather couches! =S
ReplyDeleteYou know, I've been wonderin' where those holes in our couch came from...and why my hubby kept complainin' about his ankles being sore. Now I know! *laughing*
ReplyDeleteThanks 6 of 8!
Dang. Now what to do tonight? Can you ask 6 of 8 if bunny slippers are okay for couch-jumping? Thanks.
ReplyDeleteWell, I guess I'll climb down then.
ReplyDeleteLOL.......darn, that was on my to do list!
ReplyDelete{wipes forehead} There's one accident I just avoided. Thanks Six!
ReplyDeleteSee Ocatamom and crew, what would I do without you?!
ReplyDeleteI was just getting ready to do exactly that!
Cuuuute! El has that dress too!
ReplyDeleteYou never know when a heel might get stuck in the springs or poke a hole in the cushion. I'm glad she figured it out before she broke her leg!
ReplyDeleteWas she jumping the couch for someone? ha!
ReplyDeleteA brilliant deduction my dear.
ReplyDeleteAdorable Hubby has been asking for a variation on this sport for years. Now I have proof positive that it's safety not prudishness that keeps me giggling, yet saying no.
I hope your couch is okay! ;)
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for the info number 6. I'll heed your warning. LOL
ReplyDeletewow - love the advice!
ReplyDeleteOh my. You've got to love the learning process. Once Mr. Smith found Number One Son drawing on the washer with a crayon, so of course Mr. Smith sat down, grabbed a crayon, and taught him to write his name.
ReplyDeletesweet blog, im new be sure to check mine out too thanks
ReplyDeleteShe could tell me the moon is made of pudding, as long as she was looking at me with those incredible eyes, I'd believe her.
ReplyDeleteI'm having vague recollections of our old black and white plaid sofa...cushions removed...running feet...holes, springs, and touching the carpet with running feet...and two angry babysitters. I think I was about 7 and my brother was 4.
Well, there goes my exciting plans for sunday afternoon! I will be sure to pass this advice on to our resident with the shoe fettish...
ReplyDelete*yells* "Dragon, no jumping on the couch in your heels!"
Thanks six.
Thanks for the 411, I had that game planned for our christmas party, safety first! LOL!
ReplyDeleteI hope your couch wasn't leather and didn't get holes poked in it!LOL!
Thanks for the warning! I will definitely keep this in mind the next time I jump on the couch. :-)
ReplyDeleteToo funny! Why don't the couches and the high heels come with those warnings? Hmmm..... ;) That's great!
ReplyDeletetoo cute! SHE IS A SMART GIRL. even if she learned that the hard way. also good knowledge for jumping on trampolines .
ReplyDeleteSo glad you are recording the sayings of 6 of 8, it is so hard to remember them all later! She is a card!!
