7/23/17

Knew it was going to be a challenging day today after Tatum woke up, came out into the hallway, and promptly threw herself face down on the floor and began her morning of whining.  Good lord, the Drama Diva was totally in the house and on fire today!

Wade took her for a walk and then some playing outside with sidewalk chalk this morning while Wyatt and I spent the morning crafting.  For lunch Tatum announced she wanted HAM, so we went over to Honey Baked Ham.  This is where the real adventures started.

She was acting kind of funny when we first got there, but too late I recognized the signs of a poop coming.  I hustled her into the bathroom only to find the gift had already been given, and no changing table.  For real, people, WHO HAS BATHROOMS WITHOUT CHANGING TABLES ANYMORE?

So, I earned a SERIOUS “Mommy Badge” today for my successful, amazingly mess-free, STANDING poopy pull-up changing skills.  For real y’all.  A STANDING UP POOP CHANGE. I’m feeling pretty boss at this point.  #SuperMom strikes again.

AND….. AANNNNDDDD….. after that she ate ALL her ham.  Boom.  Mike Drop.  Yassss.

Naptime was short, but my head was full of ideas for my booth, so I didn’t sleep at all.  When everyone woke up I announced my plans to Wade and told him I wanted them done today.  He wasn’t super happy with me, but since I’ve been such a good housewife this week I think he humored me.  =)  We packed the kids up in the cars (he had to take Truck Norris to pick up the wood) and headed off to Home Depot and Lonestar Mercantile.

This is where “Bad Mood Betty” entered the picture.  Drama Diva didn’t have enough nap before she woke herself up, and so the mood in the mini-van was pretty intense.  Luckily, #SuperMom was prepared for such shenanigans and brought my trusty sidekick, iPad.

We made it to the booth and Wade really busted his hump to get this thing done for me.  I think he really surprised even himself at how fast we accomplished such a task with TWO kids in tow.  Luckily I packed snacks, iPad, and when the native started to get restless improvised and built her a fort from my shelves that were waiting to go in the booth.  #SuperMom- 3, Bad Mood Betty- 0.  Woot Woot!

Tatum really did well for the hour and a half we were at Lonestar, so I promised her ice cream.  #SuperMom isn’t above bribes.  You work with the tools you’re given.

The booth turned out really good looking!  I can’t wait to get the finishing touches in and start loading it up with goodies for sale!  I have so many ideas swimming in my head it’s hard to keep them all straight, so I’ve started emailing them to myself as they come.  Needless to say, my email box is rather full.

We had another “funny” this evening when Tatum came back into our bedroom to give Wyatt his third goodnight hug.  She was standing over his Rock and Play about ready to bend down and hug him when he had a massive, noisy, gross, liquids-sounding poop.  It was loud and nightmarish sounding.  She totally stopped mid-stoop, looked up at me, and asked “What happened?”  I said “Baby Wyatt pooped, Honey.”

She stared at me for a second, looked down at him, straightened up, changed her mind about the hug, and quickly walked away.  I had a good laugh about that behind her back before she went to bed.  *grin*

Back to the regular grind of SAHM-hood tomorrow!  Need to get some of these To Do list things marked off!  ❤  Night all!
