The Pooper Scooper
January 18, 2011
Football season is winding down which means the weekend projects will be starting soon in our house. There hasn’t been much development since Thanksgiving on the pool in the backyard but once it’s done, we’ll need to plant grass, do new landscaping and build a bigger fence. As a result of the lack of activity in the backyard, we’ve ignored the grass in the back because of the earlier construction of taking the tree down and the water hole being dug.
On Saturday night, before the Green Bay Packers played the Atlanta Falcons, Tim made a bet with my 9-year old nephew that the Packers would win. Dylan picked the underdog Falcons and they bet $10 if Tim/Packers won to Dylan picking up dog poop in our yard once a week for four weeks.
I’ve only been to Vegas once when The Neighbors got married, but I’d take this bet.
The Packers won.
Dylan came over on Sunday afternoon to pick up dog poop. He didn’t realize that he bet the man who firmly believes in a bet is a bet.
I mentioned on Twitter how I referred to Dylan as The Pooper Scooper and 4-year old Troy said, “That’s funny Mommy.” Then giggled. So I told Troy he was The Pooper Spotter and sent him outside.
The response from some male followers was that they giggled at both of my tweets.
You can see how well The Pooper Spotted looked out for The Pooper Scooper.
The Pooper Scooper made another bet that morning that the Bears would lose to the Seahawks and he lost again. This bet was $1.50 from Tim or 100 pushups. After all the Poop Doodie Duty, he gave Tim 10 pushups and will pay up this weekend.

Poor Dylan!!!
This is a halarious post!!! He is teaching Little man to be careful what you bet on, huh?
Men and Poop and farts...welcome to my world.
HA! Hubby was just out scooping poop in our backyard this week-end. He said that Rowdy's poop must be made of plastic because it doesn't break down and disappear like Handsome's does. Rowdy poop EVERYWHERE! I could do a whole post about nothing but dog poop. LOL

You don't need a pooper scooper when one of your dogs is an obsessive pooper eater.
That boy needs to learn how to make a bet.. your husband is "evil"
That's definitely a good way to keep Dylan from developing a gambling problem.

Oh my gosh, I hope he doesn't do double or nothing!
