White Trash Moments

There are times in all the madness that there is no other way to feel than just pure white trash..... Let me provide you with 3 scenarios from this week to prove my point:

1. Last weekend Harper was playing on the playground when he was stung by a mosquito just below his eyebrow. Everywhere we went people stared at us as if we beat our children. If you look at the picture below you might agree!



2. Last night we spent $50 in less than an hour at the State Fair.  We made a judgment call that getting a family photo in front of a 500 lb beef cow was somehow priceless.  In addition, we couldn't resist the "pretend you are a carrot photo" for the three boys.  Breastfeeding while watching the horseshow turned even more heads.  I guess it could have been worse if I had decided to "pull up a bale of hay" in the dairy cow exhibit!



3. Third time is a charm....You might be white trash if you spend your Friday night at Wal-mart. Even better, we decide to venture out with the dogs and Harper didn't even have any shoes on. So, to say the least, I stayed in the car while Matt went in the store to pick up some drinks. It wouldn't be a white trash story unless I told you that I was wedged between two car seats in the back seat, the dogs were barking at all the crazies in the parking lot, Harper decides to crap his pants and no longer wants to sit in his car seat because he is now old enough to understand sitting in your own poo is no fun and Collier starts to scream and cry for no understandable reason. By the time Matt got back to the car all hell had broke loose! Like something nutty, I try to calm Collier by nursing him for all the world to see and with no luck for hushing the cry. So, there we are with Collier wailing to the top of his lungs while Matt changes Harper's diaper - who has now also decided to scream and cry for no apparent reason. Did I mention the dogs decided to bust open one of Harper's milk drinks all over the floor and was licking it up like they were having a steak dinner? Let me not fail to mention that during this time I discovered I had not completely covered myself up amongst the chaos, so my boob is exposed for all to see. But, I concluded that it was appropriate for the scenery because there was a lady walking to her car with just as much of her butt exposed and she didn't seem to mind! I'm just really sorry we don't have any photos to share for this moment.

Oh life is so colorful these days! Hope your week was as fun as ours!
