When Mama's Away...

When you are gone for an entire Saturday, strange things will happen. The house will mysteriously be trashed beyond recognition. There will be unrecognizable food stuck to the floor that wasn't there before you left (swear!). And your digital camera will yield pictures that were not of your own taking....
"Tinker Toys. A toddler's perspective."

"Feline Close-up."
"Our Family's Heroin."
"High Score!"


"Attentive Caregiver."


It took me an hour to find my camera and when I did, I found not only these pictures (plus about 20 more) but also that my lens will no longer fully close...

Nice.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!

Those of Patrick are HILARIOUS! Napping on the job - LOL! ;-)

My kids will occasionally get ahold of my digital camera, too, and then I have to delete about 20 hiney shots.

Oh no! All hell breaks loose when mama leaves!
I'm sure your hubby loves those pics. ;)

at least you know why everything happened. He was sleeping and you have proof!

LMAO!

I have had the WORST morning. I am so glad you posted that today!

The feline close up was so good, but when I scrolled down and saw your attentive caregiver, man, I just cannot stop laughing!

Hysterical!

(LOL. My word verification is pisser).

OMG I laughed out LOUD with the 'attentive caregiver pic'. And normally I don't do a lot of laughing outloud when reading blogs. LOL!!!!!!!!!!

Oh no...sorry about your camera, but hilarious post! So much for the "attentive caregiver", huh?

Oh. My.God. That last picture is priceless. Perfect. Amazing. I can't believe you have the proof in your hot little hands. You need to print that one out for future bribery.

"attentive caregiver" that one is my favorite.

The best part about the caregiver pictures?

She took about 4. And a VIDEO.

Those are actually pretty good photos. At first I thought the tinker toy one was of tinker toys in the toilet!

Tracie Carlton said...

ha ha... cute post... sure your hubby appreciates it also! ;)

Allison said...

I shudder to think that my husband is doing the exact same thing when I leave him with the kids! this was a great post - very funny. pretty good pictures for a toddler!

Kristi said...

Ha! I think I'd have a similar photo of my husband if he were left in charge.

And the proof is in the photos, wow!

LOVE the 'attentive caregiver' photos -- those are the BEST -- the sad thing is, that could be the same photos seen at our house....but, at our house our 'attentive caregiver' would be glued to the TV or outside working, while the preschooler trashes the house!

Kristin said...

First, it's great that we have hubby's to take care of the crew while we're out, but why is it that it takes at least a full two days to get the house back to how it was when it was left on those Saturday mornings??!!! I always say to myself when I get back...well, at least the house is still standing and nobody's in the hospital!!!
