(The Banditos: Wyatt, Daddy, Calvin, Cyrus-not pictured)Banditos are many things, but chiefly they are TOUGH. They spend most of their time honing and sharpening their skills through rigorous practice. Practice includes, but is not limited to: jumping on the bed, jumping over each other on the bed, wrestling, and pretending to fall down.
Most bandito meetings involve some sort of important conversation involving superheros, either which one they are or whose powers they would like to have. Favorite superheros discussed include: Hulk, Ironman, Thor, The Silver Surfer, Reptil, and any other member of the Super Hero Squad.
Many women might scream and stomp up and down, complaining that they have been ousted from this all boys extravaganza. Then there are smart women like myself. A woman who recognizes a good thing when she sees it. A woman who knows that a man that takes his boys and plays with them after she has had a long day tending to their teeny, tiny needs is a lucky woman. She knows that she is lucky to catch a break and squeeze in a juicy thirty minutes of Access Hollywood . . . . . . completely . . . . . . undisturbed.
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

this post reminds me of something David A. Bednar said while he was president of BYU-Idaho--do you remember this? You know he and his wife has three sons, and he said that his wife, Susan, had been accepted as an honorary member of the "Bednar Boys Club." I remember thinking then, that if I had all boys they could form a boys club with their dad. I think it's awesome. My reality is that now we have two clubs in my house--me and Dylann have to stick together as the only girls in the house, and Kerry, Evan, and Logan form that rambunctious boys club. I totally relate to you!
I was also denied membership in this exclusive club. But it seemed the best, yes, I agree. (Noah's nonmember mommy)
I'm all about boys clubs, especially the superhero types! Ours would also have to include sports. Gotta love boys.
Access Hollywood undisturbed? you are so lucky. got your new moom tickets, yet? mine are booked!
Noah's glasses are a dead give away, he is really Super Man, in his Clark Kent disguise. Do the boys know?
My kids are above average and my hubby is strapping. I think I should go to Philly and try the cheesesteaks. I heard Subway or Quiznos is the best for those.
I think they are gonna have to get a little more liberal on membership..cause we have many discussions about superheros at our house too.
