Murphy’s Law [ The Family ]

let’s just say your husband is in Las Vegas on “business”

and let’s just say you are spending your solo sunday shuttling your children to and from FOUR parties.

and let’s just say that your child who refuses to nap under any circumstances went and did this…

8 minutes before you had to go and pick up your son from his party.

GRRR. what do you do?

i did what any other annoyed mmmyÂ bloggerÂ would do. i took her out of her carseat, which woke her and has left her in the worst. mood. she’s. ever. been. in. (and then blogged about it. ha!)

this really is the best day ever.

It figures it happens when your hubby is awake and can’t spot you.

Try locking yourself in the bathroom

I thought “leave child in car” was the correct answer.

But that’s why I’m childless.

Yeah, that is the only choice really. Well I suppose other than leaving her in the car which I thought you were about to admit to.

I’m very impressed you are flying solo and made it out last night, looking lovely as always. I had to take only one child to a party yesterday and was going to tear my hair out.

Are we living in Bizarro World? My husband is in South America. My twins think it’s hilarious to wipe me out all day, not nap, *and* still proceed to stay up late.

How is it that I’m all haggard and they’re all juiced up?

The car seat trick is my last trick left…

i’ll see your awakened bad-mooded child and raise you one that took a nap at 5pm and is literally going to be up until at least MIDNIGHT, and still up by 7am. And he is WIDE AWAKE, talking 500 miles a minute.

I probably would have left Carter in the car! LOL Mind you - I park my car, literally, right outside my side door so he would have been closer to me then when he’s in his room.

I was sooooo happy to meet you last night! You’re adorable and I LOVE you even more!!
