Perspective

October 27th, 2008

While the rest of the world gets its panties in a wad over much more serious matters, my week can pretty much be explained pictures:

“Mommy? Will my forehead ever feel normal again?”
“Yes, darling, as soon as you stop running into things.”

Mama always told me that the laundry will wait. Well, it sure did, while we were laid out in our sick beds, but it morphed into a one-eyed monster with scary hairy appendages growing out of it. (If you were so bored and wondering what 3 days without doing laundry for me looks like, this is pretty much it.) The funniest thing about this photo is the basket, I think. I mean, what’s the use of a basket when it’s this bad?

“You spent how much of our money buying this phone on ebay?”
(He’s going to love me for posting that one)

This one requires explanation. You may recall that Shepherd has a severe degree of disdain for being on his back. I was busy putting the other kids down for naps this afternoon (which takes me about 10-15 minutes when I’m alone), and when I finally got up to our bonus room to see why Shepherd was wailing so, I discovered this. Pillows flung off the bed, sock kicked away, and little man screaming his adorable head off. 3 months old and already rolling over! At least he rolled out of the puddle of milk. Our kids have talent, I tell you. It’s because we home-school.

Well, little guy, you’re stuck in this family. But it’s not so bad, eh?

It’s all about the view, right?

    Love the pictures! And hey, we haven’t even been sick and our laundry looks like yours!

    Yeah, our laundry pile looks the same (I only fold twice/week) except that the boys routinely knock it onto the floor when they walk by. *sigh*
    Good thing he’s so advanced - he’ll be rolling back over to his preferred position in no time! :o)

    I know what you mean about the laundry! It seems to never be caught up!

    It makes me feel better to know that my kid is not the only one prone to accidents! Tanner is always falling, hitting his head or hurting something! Ah, growing pains! However, the picture of Meredith is priceless! Love it!

    That was adorable! I can relate (though it seems so far away, *sniff, sniff*) to each picture–right down to a husband who buys things just because they don’t make them anymore! (I’m guessing.)

    Ummmm this is what my couch looks like every week on laundry day. Should I feel weird/bad, or should you be encouraged? Haha.
