typical tuesday: Jess

This Tuesday's subject is the famous photographer Jessica Kettle. No big deal, but she's totally my cousin. When we were little we lived a few houses down from each other, live'n the dream. Dress-ups, pretending, and bossing each other around probably. Now we are trying to figure out how we can be neighbors, so her little ones can come over to my house and I will stuff them full of high fructose corn syrup just like my mom did to her.

What's awesome about this is I just gave her my password and stuff so she can post herself! So if you get any weird emails from me or if there are cuss words on my blog, it wasn't me.

Any ways, take it away Jess!


on a typical tuesday...

we all wake up in the same bed.
[how does that always happen anyway?]
and stay there longer than we should!
because we like slow mornings.

we finally fold the mountain of laundry (and i do mean MOUNTAIN) that was waiting for us.
at the same time, we play laundry monster.
it's a good game.
we try to include lucy,
but max is really the best monster.
i mean look at him, so monster-y.


tuesday is my work from home day, so that means tomi (our nanny/friend/lifesaver) and addy (her daughter/max's PIC) come to play!
addy holds me hostage with a cap gun, they dump out toys, watch dispicable me,
DRAW WITH CHALK,
and make a fort.
which quickly becomes max the tiger's lair.



meanwhile, 
lucy and i work. 
reeeeeeal hard. 
kinda.
?

[this is the part where you look at the funny photo booth pictures and realize that rachel and i really are related. hehe. there is one where i think we look lots alike. see it?]

... but i finish a wedding and a birth. 
[patting myself on the back]

lulu and i also sneak out for lunch with a friend. that's lucky for us. 


i get home and walk past max's room.
his bed was never made. 
decide to skip it because after all, he's just going to get back in it in a few hours!
right?


max and lu take a bath together,
and lu splashes max, 
and max splashes lu.
they think they are very funny indeed!

max eats dinner:
a burrito with chicken, peppers + mushrooms
mom eats dinner:
a few bites of max's burrito and lots of pretzels and little dove chocolates [woops].
lu eats dinner:
mom

danny works late:
did danny eat dinner? oh dear.


babies go to bed, 
we stay up and party! 
and forget to take any more pictures. sorry!


the end.

well, sorry my tuesday was just that,
so very typical!

what do you do on tuesdays?
