OMG
So this morning was HBear’s dance photos. I am the world’s worst dance Mom.
1stshe has short hair, it is IMPOSSIBLE to get a freaking bun into her hair! So I make 2 little ones and yell as she cries that I am hurting her, bad Mommy.
2ndI start getting her into her costume that I just pulled out from the back of the closet… ummm are there supposed to be tights?
3rdI don’t own makeup let alone pink blush and red lipstick!
4thI bought some lipstick the other day, maybe I can be salvaged? J
 |
| SBean watched and thought… Yeah I’m going into hockey… Mommy can dream right? LOL |
5thWe get going and I think OMG I forgot her Damn wrist thingyies! Turn around
6thWe finally get there and the Home Show is on too… Shit no parking! Wouldn’t be too bad but I have HBear in a little track outfit over her massive tutu and she is freezing! It is -2 today sorry Winnipeg friends!
7thWe get inside finally and HBear is wearing white tights and the rest are wearing brown/nude!!! CRAPPY
8thA Mom comes up and says “I have blush in my bag if you want?” OK so they noticed. I did get mascara and lipstick on her! Jeeze!
9thI get her some matching tights… she missed last week when she had pink eye, that is when they were handed out. Honestly she NEVER misses, the 1 time…
10thNone of it mattered… she looked beautiful and I am so proud of her!
