Busy Busy and hypothetically bad parenting

We had a busy busy weekend with a whirlwind last minute trip to Pittsburgh.  Mike could have potentially had jury duty last friday, but luckily he did not.  So thursday night we packed up and drove in on friday.  We were so lucky to have family watch the kids so we could go to.....




(Uncle) Joe Grushecky and Bruce Springsteen Concert!!  Mike and I were in the 7th row, and at one point we switched with my brother, who had first row seats.  I must say, I'm totally spoiled with any concert from here on out.  First row is definetely the way to go!  At one point Bruce walked past us, and brushed Mike.  All of a sudden I feel Mike wiping something wet on my arm and he said "That was Bruce Springsteen sweat.  You're welcome."  Haha!  We had a great time at the concert and two wine Tracey danced like a crazy woman.  It was also pretty cool to have all access passes to be able to go back stage and hang out with the band.




But back to reality....

Just some cute pictures for the grandparents.


Totter's Otterville kitchen.

Yes, that is my almost 1 year old playing at the table.


Dear Totter's Otterville,  My kids really love the face painting station.  I do not.  Do you know how long it took in the shower this afternoon to get this all off?  Sincerely Me


So I must tell you a story of hypotentically bad parenting.  Not that this would have happened to me!  Let's say there is a parent of a baby who would be needing a bottle away from the house.  When the time came for the bottle, the parent hypothetically removed the bottle from underneath the stroller and realized the bottle did not have a nipple on it.  But the baby has already seen the bottle and is throwing a fit screaming and spasming with anger, because he wants the bottle NOW!  So, channeling their inner McGyver this parent decides to dump out their water bottle and put formula into it instead.  Baby sucks happily on the water bottle, problem solved!

(Note to Dawson: if you have figured out that you are the hypothetical baby this happened to, my apologies.)

  1. That sounds resourceful to me. If it is "bad" parenting I am really in trouble!

    and p.s. - that concert sounded awesome! I'm trying not to be jealous!!!
