Our Savior

Well the picture hype is OVER. And god what it turned into! Let me just say that 98% of the time, my husband is very sensitive and helping. However, there is a 2% every now and again and that I need to share with you. As you've seen from my posts, I wanted this FAMILY picture to turn out! Its our first real one. Its going in the church directory, so EVERYONE will see this picture.

I spent a week picking out clothes, and then another few days deciding which to wear. Totally womens work in this household and I wouldnt want it any other way. Well, I told my dear dear husband to be home at 5...pictures were eat 5:30. This was a LITTLE lie. I had to lie, BECAUSE I hoped to have him home early enough to HELP OUT. So he finally comes home at 5:55pm....he had saw the card and figured out pictures were not until 6:30. What he didn't know is we had to leave the house at 6. So, I finally realize he is going to be late, so I try to feed the baby supper, while doing my hair (which will NOT cooperate) and make-up. That is a TRICK. Then I must get dressed and pack the diaper bag, while making sure the clothes are all ironed and the baby's hair gets done. Finally, MR. Play-It-Cool walks in and wonders WHY I seemed stressed! ARE YOU KIDDING ME! He then takes his time getting ready, and then says "Do you want me to dress Izze"----NOOOOOOOO----you aren't putting the dress on until we GET there....Well wont we be late he says?! WELL YES, BUT WHOS FAULT IS THAT! Uggg.....meanwhile supper is done and Izze and I both stink like a big hot dog (because that was the best nutrion I could offer on this chaotic day).

After all of this stress, the pictures were done in under 10 minutes, my hair looked like crap, my double chin came out for a visit, and he had the nerve to SLOUCH in the pictures.....but he is so lucky, because once again, his sweet little Izze saved his ass. She smiled and looked like an angel for EVERY SINGLE picture....making the rest of the "gang" look that much better! OH SOME DAYS........
