Last thursday night there was a terrible no good very bad storm and it shook the whole house. This storm was so fierce that it knocked the power out a school and thus we got the day off of school.
Days off are great, unexpected days off are EPIC.
This is a recount of my EPIC day off.
I was running late and so the wife took the girls to school. She called me all pumped, “guess what I heard on the radio you don’t have to go to school today!” I was super pumped. What would I do first? Should I go back to bed? Go streaking through the quad?The options were endless so naturally, I took a long hot bath, which I have not been able to do since before the baby was born. It was a beautiful thing. Then I went to day care and got the baby. Because you don’t get much alone time with the second baby and I was getting my baby time in. Next, the babes and I met the wife for lunch and ate some bangin barbeque. Then I spent the afternoon playing with the baby.
This may not sound like much to you, but to me it was perfect.
That evening my oldest sat the baby down next to her and explained the finer art of yo gabba gabba.
The perfect beginning of my perfect mother’s day weekend.
“You’re favorite is toodee, my favorite is Foofa”
nevercontrary

That sounds absolutely perfect. Love me some Yo Gabba Gabba
It took a while for me to get on board with the Gabba train, but I like it now.
Sounds like the perfect day off! Nice to spend some time with the new baby!
Pretty much!
Holy crap! Is that your baby bump? Sitting?? On the FLOOR?? I’ve been away a little too long methinks.
Happy Mother’s Day. Wishing you well, my Contrary Cajun neighbor. 🙂
PS — Ours was Teletubbies followed by Boo Bah. Years of therapy was required for a complete recovery.
It is my baby bump. The grow so fast !! Happy Mother’s day to you too!

Sometimes the simplest thing make us gappy
