Stayin’ Alive…

No, I didn’t battle my laundry mountain. In fact, it’s still growing in the closet. But I DID do something quite dangerous.

I went swimsuit shopping. ( Do y’all hate that as much as i do? )

WITH Caden-3yr and Seth-1yr in a double stroller too big to fit between department store swimsuit racks.

We went to the Dillard’s restroom first, where Seth-1yr threw his sippie cup  — with perfect aim –  into the toilet.

Yes. OF COURSE i had to get it out. Ew.

Made it out of there with cute swim attire and one less sippie cup.

I’m pregnant and this is the only time I don’t dread a swimsuit, because maternity swimsuits are actually flattering to me.

Now next summer… that will be a whole different story (a sob one…)

blessings,
Karla

Well, why didn’t you just get one when you stole Mike’s cc and visited VictoriasSecret.com? You could have killed a few more birds with that stone too.

I’m not getting a new one this year. I’m going with an old one, mainly because I AM going to lose about 5 lbs. and I want my new one to LOOK GOOD!

And I would also have been the owner of one less sippy cup.

The sippee cup thing was gross, and funny at the same time. Yeah, I am sure I’d stand there and stare at it for a very long time before I decided to reach in and rescue it….

Ugh! Bathing suit shopping! I used to wear bikinis - until last year. What a C-section and stretch marks will do!

You are One! BRAVE! woman! Swim suit shopping with preschoolers! I think I’d rather scoop sippie cups out of toilets all day long instead of swim suit shopping….with any one!

Brave girl!

We might have to have one of those sessions, what do they call it a meme (?) where we have a before and after of our mountain of laundry. I have quite a bit…… I gotta get to it and do a Barney Fife - nip it in the bud.

With 7 kids, you’d think I’d have experienced it all, but a sippee cup in the toilette is not one I’ve gone through! LOL Not that I haven’t gone fishing in the toillette for things, though. We had a plumber who should have paid our kids a commission for awhile there.

I hate swimsuit shopping with a passion! If I could lose the 50# I need to, I might not hate it as much!!

I need to shop for one, but I’d rather gnaw off my leg in a bear trap. I’m sick of shooting for “Hey, she did the best she could with what she had to work with.” How low I have sunk when that is my goal. Shoot me now :-)

I love adventures with the double stroller… it’s the only way to shop these days ;-)
Are you going to show us the pic of the new suit?
