Hello, and welcome to the part of the week where we share embarrassing photos that will most likely never see a picture frame, mantle or scrapbook. You know the ones I'm talking about.
Can the mamas with more than one child, who nursed their children, please raise their hands?
Alright - thanks. I just wanted to make sure there was someone in here who would vouch for me. Sometimes negligence is forced on us, ya know?! (Actually...really, if you've ever been busy or occupied while your kid was in the other room...oh forget it. I don't think there's a mama ALIVE who doesn't know what I'm talking about here. I'm just using the nursing as an excuse!)
So, the other day, I was...you know...nursing Siu Jeun. We were chilling on the couch, enjoying some peace and quiet. (Come on - you know what's coming, right?) BBJ was being quiet. I was enjoying it, not allowing myself to imagine what might be keeping her quiet.
She wandered toward me a while later, and said, "Mama! Lookame!!!" (Mom, look at me!)
Yeah, y'all. Laugh all you want to. (I know I wanted to!)
Oh, you want to see that closer? Are you proud of me for not laughing? I don't really want a repeat performance!
(Yes, those are her ribs sticking out. The girl takes after her father, and that's all I'm going to say about that!)
(This, by the way, was taken three days ago. The marks are still there.)
For more, ah, un-frameable moments, head on over to The Glamorous Life!
Awww. Her first tats. That's one for the baby books indeed:)
ReplyDeleteHahaha! At least it wasn't on her face. Erm, not that that has ever happened in our household... *whistling and looking guilty*
ReplyDeleteThat is awesome! So far Ellis has stayed away from the markers, but I wait for the day! She looks completely like a little girl now - the toddler is gone. She is growing up so fast!
ReplyDeleteOh that is pretty funny. It must have been difficult not to laugh and I don't think I would have succeeded!
ReplyDeleteNothing new to me, but way too funny! At least it wasn't your walls! Taylor still sometimes writes on her arms or legs... she will be twelve this month!
ReplyDeleteThat's hilarious. I don't think I could have kept from laughing.
ReplyDelete*raising hand*
ReplyDeleteAnd my son always made it a point to get into things when I was nursing his little sister!

ReplyDeleteI'm just proud of her for drawing on herself and not the BABY.
ReplyDeleteI've decided that most of the things that happen when a child is left alone and gets too quiet are usually worth the time and quiet you gain. Usually. I've taken Gabi to the grocery store with permanent marker on her face without a care in the world because it let me pay the bills online one Friday.
ReplyDeleteMy 3 year old ALWAYS writes on himself whenever I let him draw or color. I hope he eventually grows out of it.
