New Rule

Since I've gone back to work after the baby, laundry has been out of control. So, there's a new rule in the house.

Going forward:

My Triple Threat

You know Monday is going to be good when you wake up to this triple threat:

Best Day Ever

As an HVAC guy, Nate has literally been working around the clock since the first day our temperatures hit 90 degrees (about 2 months ago).  This past Saturday he finally made plans to do something relaxing, one of his favorite past times...

Fishing

Well...

1) His alarm, set for 4:20am, never went off. He didn't wake up until after I had fed Avenly, which was about 5:30am.

2) When he finally got to the lake, there were a million other people fishing there too.

3) He didn't catch any fish.

4) When he got back to his car at the end of his day, the car battery was dead.

5) He then had to hike back to the lake to find someone who could help him jump-start it.

6) After getting back to the car, he realized he didn't have the jumper cables in his car, so: 

7) He hiked back up to the lake to find someone with jumper cables to help him with the jump-start.

8) Did I mention there was no cell phone service where he was?

9) Not that it mattered, his cell phone battery was dead too (androids...sheesh!).

10) But, he did manage to "catch" the most horrible sunburn I have ever seen! And, unfortunately, I have experienced more than my share of horrible sunburns.  I wanted to cry when I saw how bad his legs were. But also, I have to admit, I was a little bit glad that someone else could be the sunburned one this time.

OUCH! Yes, he was wearing flip flops through all of this!

But wait, it gets better...

To end Nate's day, Carter snuggled up next to his dad to fall asleep.  We totally love any chance we get to snuggle with this cute boy so...  

It was a perfect ending to a hard day.

Until Carter had an accident in his sleep and went potty all over Nate and the couch.

<<< Gross >>>

Like I Said

The Best Day Ever!

Let's just not repeat it!
