Lady to me (at Hancock Fabrics): "Hey, I saw you last week at that restaurant."
Me: "Oh?"
Lady (pointing to my shirt): "Yes, I recognized you because of your cute baby. He was eating rice."
Me: "...And because I'm wearing the same shirt?"
Lady: "Well, I didn't want to mention it, but yes, that caught my attention."

Welcome to Murdock Cockaigne
Cockaigne or Cockayne (pronounced /kɒˈkeɪn/) is a mythical medieval land of plenty, an imaginary place of extreme luxury and ease where physical comforts and pleasures are always immediately at hand and where the harshness of medieval peasant life does not exist.
A Little Bit About Us
The life and times of the Murdocks: Adam, Emily, Nate, Aidan, and Sophie.
Adam and I have been married for nine years, we have two sweet little boys and one little princess, and we've had quite the rollercoaster ride so far! We live in Dallas, where Adam is in his first year out of residency (finally a REAL doc!) and I run a small but exciting photography business.
We'd love to open the Hotel Murdock for you, if you're ever in the area! We LOVE visitors!

Nate's Quote of The Day
Nate: "Mom, do you think that there was people living in the jungle when people discovered the jungle?"
Mom: "Yes, there are people who live in the jungle."
Nate: "Oh, yeah, like Binidi the Jungle Girl!!"
Mom: "Well, I think that Bindi the Jungle Girl actually lives in a real house, in real life."
Nate: "Yeah, a real house in the jungle."
(OF COURSE...why ELSE would they call her a Jungle Girl?)
Nate: "Oh! I get it! Choose the Right! That means we should choose to go this way!" (points to the right)
Nate: "Those people have hearts by them. That means they love each other. I have love for someone. Erin. I'm in love with her."
Mom: "You're in love with her?"
Nate: "Well.......I think so."
Nate: "Mom, Erin likes me the way that Ailynn likes Demetrius. She wants to be my girlfriend."
Mom: "What does that mean, if she's your girlfriend?"
Nate: "I don't know."
Mom: "Well, I think it means that she's thinks you're nice, and she likes being around you."
Nate: "Yeah, that's probably what it means."
"Mom, I told Leslie that she is the most beautifulest I've ever seen." (This was at their Thanksgiving feast. She had a sparkly, sequinned, glittered Indian costume. She really was the beautifulest.)
"Mom, I love you so much. I'm so glad you're a part of my family." Ahh--does life get any better than THAT?
Nate: "Mom, this toast looks rusty."
Mom: "Rusty?"
Nate: "Yep, rusty and scrumptious."
(Describing the near-drowning we saw at the pool):
"Dad, she got a lot of water in her mouth. Too much. And so she had to go to the dentist."
"Dad is old because he has little hairs on his face. That means he's old."
As I was typing on the computer, the boys were playing. I heard a tiny burp from 7-month-old Aidan, and Nate said: "Aidan, say 'excuse me!'" I guess he listens to me after all!
Mom: "Did you like your grilled cheese sandwich, Nate?"
Nate: "Yes, but I didn't want a girl cheese sandwich. I wanted a boy one."
Mom: "Yes, there are people who live in the jungle."
Nate: "Oh, yeah, like Binidi the Jungle Girl!!"
Mom: "Well, I think that Bindi the Jungle Girl actually lives in a real house, in real life."
Nate: "Yeah, a real house in the jungle."

What shirt were you wearing? Was it when you were at Pei Wei with Lara?
No, different rice consumption. Sad, I know. But the boy loves rice.
Funny! Hey we speak Doranese around here too! Alex is always screaming at me...
Abajo! Arriba! Ayuda me! Vamanos!
Seriously. I can only understand her English about 75% of the time so what is up with the spanish? Too much Dora.
At least she has stopped saying
Aye Aye Captain!
that is actually really funny! thanks
LOL!!! I actually can't believe that a lady actually stopped you to tell you that she saw you somewhere else! That's Texas for ya!!
Must be a dang cute shirt!
I have my favorite shirt too that I wear EVERYWHERE and usually with the same pants too. It just makes my day easier when I don't have to think about what to put on.
P.S I went back and bought 3 more cupcakes to take back with me to Cory and the kids...so I still spent a crazy amount of money on sweets but oh it was so worth it. I'll catch ya when I'm there for christmas!!
