I’m cheating a bit here as I’m just doing a final photo dump from our beach vacation. I’m always happy to be the one behind the camera on beach vacations as there will never be a picture of me in my swimsuit on the internets.
If you think I actually had time to take a picture this week with my phone or otherwise you are sadly mistaken.
I’m still doing laundry. The suitcases remain unpacked. I grocery shopped but not sure what I even bought so we chose to eat out most of the week. Sinful. Or American. Or both.
We are catching up on homework and projects. I’ve spent more hours than I can count researching Lady Gaga information for a 1st grade report and I bought three yards of white faux fur because I’m sewing a giant polar bear for a third grade project.
I shit you not.
Astrid has decided that peeing her pants is like super fun.
But no way in hell am I buying diapers again so I just carry many pairs of size 2T adorable ‘big girl underwear’ in my purse.
This is my life.
Most of the time humorous.
Never glamorous.
And quite beautiful if I look close enough. Especially when it’s covered in faux fur fuzz and pee while I sing Poker Face.
Happy Weekend.
It looks like you and the girls had a fabulous trip!
I’m impressed that you are sewing a polar bear. I bet you never thought you’d type those words.
Hee Hee, remind me never to volunteer to wade in the pool with Astrid! But seriously I’m glad you had such a fun trip with your little ladies – priceless memories : )
looks like a fabulous trip, and there’s something nice about coming home, even if it’s to pee and to-be-sewed polar bears.
These are just gorgeous (and make me want to find a beach immediately).
You do have a beautiful life – with those 3 girls, how could you not?
And what glorious pictures!!!
Thanks for making me laugh this morning – not at your circumstances but at your descriptions
Remember every day is new!
You are just the mom to pull off all of those things, simultaneously.
See you when we get back, I will miss you!
You make me giggle.
And the Astrid peeing stories make me break out in a cold sweat. We’re getting to Dylan potty-training time, and I’m ignoring it like crazy.
The pictures of stunning!
Who said you don’t have skills to teach others – a polar bear!!!
The beach looks awesome! The school project and the peeing the pants sounds dreadful! Here is to hoping this next week is WAY better ; )
Seriously, your photos are gorgeous as are your girls. Can you save some instructions for how to make a polar bear so that I can refer to it in a few years when I inevitably will have to do the same? Thanks. We’re in the same boat with the peeing in the pants. I’m sick of doing laundry but I think I hate diapers more. But I think that my fav part of the post is the fact that you use the phrase “I shit you not.” I love that. No joke.
