Another Wonderful Morning

My "good" child made herself "pretty" with my waterproof eyeliner while I gave myself the luxury of a morning shower. My heart dropped when she proudly announced that she had done her brother too, but luckily he escaped with only a big circle on his temple. I swear, if I thought I would be successful and no one would ever find me, I would run away and never look back!

Meanest Mama in the World

Tonight I had to fulfill my promise to duct tape Carter's clothes to him to attempt to keep from playing in his own poop. On this terrible, terrible morning my dear darling son locked himself in my closet and reached inside of his diaper (and yes he had clothes on, not just a diaper) and wiped poop all over himself, my shoes, my clothes, the walls and the carpet. Let's all remember earlier this week when I busted him throwing poop at one of our dogs while sitting on our practically new couch. So for all of you thinking that I am now officially the meanest mama in the world, you are right. But I'll be damned if I am spending another day scrubbing poop off my shoe racks! Fool me once...

Day 5- Day with Daddy

We left the campground Friday night to stay with DJ in Mountain View since he had the weekend off. We stayed all day Saturday and left on Sunday. There is no photographic evidence of Sunday- I spent 6 hours traveling with a 3 year old.

Abigail went to her first movie with us on Saturday. We saw UP and she actually sat through the entire thing without a fuss!

Day 4- Picnic at Sunset Beach

Day 4- California Poppy

Day 4- Strawberry Picking

Day 3- Roasting (Burning) Marshmallows

Day 3- Santa Cruz Beach

Off to a Great Start...

While eating my breakfast this morning (a bean and cheese burrito) I notice that Carter has been sitting on the couch watching Max & Ruby on tv- a show that he rarely pays any attention to. A few minutes later I notice he is still sitting there staring at the tv, but he is throwing something at one of our dogs and patting him on the head when he comes closer. Suddenly I realize that Carter does not have any food- he is throwing his own poop at the dog and rubbing it on the top of his head!!!! So help me...

Day 3- Santa Cruz Boardwalk
