D took a road trip to New Orleans with some of his siblings this past weekend and left me home alone with the kids. It rained all weekend here so we were stuck inside all day. I feel bruised, battered, defeated, but mostly bruised.
Look what C did to me:
She didn't really punch me in the face though. She scattered clean paper plates all over the kitchen floor and as I bent over to pick them up, she stood up and her head hit the bone above my eye. I actually think it looks kind of cool and it makes me feel tough.

**oh, and it's from Mean Girls
New Orleans, huh?
ReplyDeleteWhat was he doing there?
(As if I didn't know.)
Sorry, friend! "That huwts, huh?" (And that's a quote from Cody. :)
dude, that's a serious bonk. I recognized the quote mostly thanks to the fact that you introduced me to Mean Girls the very day that it came out on video. Truly a classic.
ReplyDeleteOh Bethany...I feel your pain! I keeo waiting for a shiner to actually materialize after my son punched me in the face because unlike Claire, he actually does punch me! And it isn't AWESOME, especially in the middle of a store!
ReplyDeleteNow you get to come here and have a girls' weekend with me. And you get to eat a lot and spend lots of money. Don't you agree, Dallan?
ReplyDeleteYou do look tough...I'd be scared of you :) Amaya did a similar thing to be but bruised my cheekbone...even though I didn't have quite as an awesome of a bruise as you.
ReplyDeleteYou are a trooper supporting such a faithful BYU fan. I understand. Jason will be leaving on Friday again to go to UT for the FSU game. Go Cougars!! I will be at home with three kids and one on the way.
ReplyDeleteThanks again for having Jason in your home and feeding him and giving him a place to sleep. If there is ever a game near Sacto you guys are always welcome!!
Your eye looks great. It must be fun telling the story over and over again. Kids!
That is pretty awesome!!!! You are one tough chick!
ReplyDeleteOuch Beth! That must have hurt! Ethan bonked me today in the cheek and that hurt---oh yeah I knew that quote, aren't you proud!?!
ReplyDeleteOuch. I haven't yet sustained my first motherhood-induced shiner, but I'm sure it's coming. I agree, Mean Girls is awesome.
ReplyDeleteThank you for quoting Mean Girls. Love it. Claire looks like a good little handful of a child, probably what i have to look forward too. Good thing they are so cute--even with mangy hair cuts or no hair at all in Sydney's case. Miss you!
