In an attempt to impress my children, I did a cartwheel in the playroom, and my foot landed on a Fisher-Price chatter phone on the way down. On the looooong way down.
At least it was better than the bunny incident. I had told Amelia Kate her crawl tube was a bunny hole, and I tied a strip of white tulle around my head like a headband and told her they were bunny ears. After she fed me a few real carrots, I slipped into the "bunny hole"...and got majorly stuck. Oh, it was real cute...imagine it, folks...my rump sticking out of one end, and Amelia looking through the other end at what I'm sure looked more like an 80s Madonna than a bunny. I laughed till I cried. Then I cried because I was stuck. Then I laughed again. Then I un-wedged myself...thankfully before Mike came home from work.
I already know I am totally going to be the momma that embarrasses her kids. I get it honest, y'all. Momma used to climb up in the trees in our front yard and wait for us to get off the school bus!
I reckon I have a few more years before they start getting embarrassed...hehehe....
Stop it, Katie! Your momma would wait for y'all in the tree out front of your house?! Lordy mercy, I know you were shamed. That bunny hole story is some kind of funny!!!

Too Cute! I have gotten stuck in Braelyn's tunnel and her Daddy was right there to laugh at me. It is all in the name of fun, right? Love your blog and your babies are adorable.

You are hilarious! I bet Amelia Kate is never bored with a fun mom like you. Praise God for playtime with our babies:)

I'm laughing so hard I'm crying. When I think of all the ways I embarrass the girlies... it's one of the great joys of parenthood.

Oh, that's funny! I got wedged in a toddler tunnel in grad school when I was baby sitting a friend's child. I felt like Pooh when he ate to much and got stuck at Rabbit's!

O' my I am laughing so hard.
No kids yet but I did have to "free" my niece from one of those play lands at McD's She was scared to come down and was stuck at the top. It was not the day to have worn a dress. I have learned my lesson and I am sure those poor people are still having nightmares.
