Wee One Wednesday: Grass Fail.


Yesterday, Carter and I ventured outside for the very first time sans blanket. I took one look at the plush, green lawn and plopped him down. He wasn't thrilled, although he didn't hate it either, but I'll be damned if I could get the kid to smile!

I wonder what the neighbors are thinking as they drive by and I'm outside in my mom-uniform, bra-less sporting black yoga capris and a hotpink tank top. Did I mention I'm waving toys above my head and clapping hands every .3 seconds? I'm surprised no one has called the police.

Oh and pay no attention to the complete lack of landscaping. I told you the beds were bare nekkid! The silver lining? We get to plan our front landscape from the ground up! I just wish I knew what I was doing...

 Happy Wednesday, Loyals!

  4. I wish we lived close! I would totally design your landscaping after doing ours. Plus, Adam's boss is a licensed landscaper. He does jobs on the side. SO I guess you need to move to Illinois!!

    Oh, and thanks for the visual of a bra-less tank top wearing AP.. :shudder: ha!

  8. So cute. I think I have a picture of me about the same age as Carter doing the feet up pose in the grass.

  9. I took 61 photos of Eva's first encounter with grass. She is not looking at the camera or smiling in any of them. Not at the same time anyway. She did look a few times but there were definitely no smiles. I'm planning on trying again and if I have any better luck, I will just lie and say that was the first time, mkay?

  15. Jamie hates grass. Hates. Like screams the minute I even think about putting him down. So much for letting him play outside while I water the flowers!

  17. BG used to HATE the feel of grass. She'd just sit there with her hands in the air and give me horrified looks. But she's getting better.

    Love the jon jon, the blond curls, the pictures, the image of a crazy mom.. love it all!!

  18. Love his little facial expression about the grass. Macie HATED grass and would scream if we set her down in it at C's age. He is just so darn cute, love his outfit :)
