Say... Pee

Picture day.... What the blankety blank was I thinking?! I know that this does not come as a surprise to any of you but I was running late. I make myself feel better by saying on time is when I get there. Yep, whatever. Just plain late.

After waking up and thinking 3 hours would be plenty of time made me realize that I will get up at midnight to get to work on time. Yikes! By this time I can see that I should stop for a alcoholic beverage to get through the rest of the day.

On the way to Tulsa I spill my water in my lap. I now look like I peed my pants. Note to public: seat heater on 90 for an hour and pants dry. Problem solved.

We get to our destination and Cade decides he is not going to sleep. He wants to stay awake and fuss. And he wanted to mark his territory. He pees on everything. I rock the pee stains and burp milk on the shoulder. The other day I realized that you know you're a new mom when you get peed on and 3 hours later you still have on the same shirt. What? I changed him. Don't judge!!!

I think that we will put a new meaning to pictures. I mean has anyone ever taken a picture with a bottle or paci in the mouth. Exactly. Why not? Makes for happier kids and it gives character. 2 hour photo shoots will only take 5 min.

Now that I think about it... maybe Cade didn't like his junk being exposed. I am going to bust those out in the future. Let me apologize in advance. Sorry Cade!

Addysyn is 8 so we had a heart to heart. Went something like this... I will get you cherry berry if you do what you are told and don't argue. Hey, I don't beat around the bush. My lectures are to the point and she knows I mean business.

I told myself, self... You will get a glass of wine if you behave. Okay, I'm in.

I was pleased with the pictures. They did great. I wanted one of Cade and his little wrinkled head. Got it! And a pic of him and Addysyn. Got it! Mission accomplished. Peace out!

A friend came the next morning and took some. Yep, he peed on her too. You know as little as they are that thing has power behind it. I need a tent to place over it or whatever it's called... Pee pee house or tent. You get the drift.

I was mentally prepared. I remember Addysyn's first pics. The one in my hall she has poop all over the back of her outfit. Don't tell her. Something about the camera that scares the pee and poo out of kids.

Needless to say I had a blast. This is what parenting is all about. Making memories. Who needs pictures when you can write words... Oh, and have visuals. You're welcome!

I am sure more happened. However, I think I mentally blocked it or had a mommy drink and forgot. Seriously... I did not. I had a diet coke in a wine glass and drank with my pinkie up.

Need I say more. When in doubt, pinkie out!
