Gabbi Video


Ok. A rare treat! A video! Are you ready for this? Well, let me set it up. It's Easter Sunday. We are meeting mom and her beau, Dad and his wife, Staci and all the teenagers in the family... so what I am trying to say here is that EVERYONE was going to be meeting at church. I can't remember the last time, wait yes I can... NEVER.... that the WHOLE gang was in church and then out to eat lunch together. So, I get up, get my girls ready, and we are AHEAD of schedule, waiting for Daddy to finish and we could all go load up. Because I am totally obsessed, I head to my art room to sew a little since me and my little underlings are good to go. We need to be getting in the car in about 15 minutes. And I hear, "Mommmm, look at Gabbi". And so I did....

(Please tell me you can see this video)



Now understand, there are about 50 ink stamp pads in my art room. TWO of them are permanent ink, meant for fabrics and such and NOT meant to come off! A black one and a brown one. I'll let you guess which one Gabbi chose to use. My StazOn ink pad.



But in conclusion, Super Mom swooped on in and got 'er done, and we all made church on time.



Have a happy week!



Mo

Oh my heavens! I can't believe Gabbi girl decided she needed a little color in her skin. Anyway, I sent you and email at your att address. Happy May!

Ha ha ha! Oh sweet Gabbi. She doesn't look like it's bothering her one bit. I'm glad all ended up well and you got to church on time.

Blessings...

That's exactly what my kids do when I turn my back. I leave the room and all H@$&k breaks loose. She looks so cute and proud of herself though!

OMG - And here we thought Ellie was the one that was going to be the life of you. Yet looking at her makes me wonder if her sister had some kind of part in all of this. Glad you were Super Mom and managed to get to church despite Gabbi's surprise!

Oh My!!!! The guilt on her face is precious. She couldn't find the words to explain but Ellie had no problem at all!! LOL

Ok, now I have to stay in suspense until I get home! I can't open any videos here at work! Judging from the comments it was pretty hilarious! I'll checkback in later this afternoon, w/my commentary!

HAHAHA! That reminds me of the time I had both my kids ready for a wedding (they were 2 and 4 at the time) I was finishing up my makeup when I realized they were both very quiet and went to check on them....They were sitting in the kitchen on the floor and had decided to use my shapie markers to paint each others faces. Mommy was not happy and it took 3 days before I could get it all off.....I'm so glad I can look back on that day and smile now!

MO!!! You are blessed with the patience of a SAINT to listen to the calm in your voice, and that you had the presence to take a video!
Mostly though, this video makes me miss all the other videos you used to do. I used to love hearing your voice when you did the mini book tutorials, and my very favorite was the one of little Ellie calling out to TOOOODD, and saying "Mess M'AAM" when asked if she wanted an m&m. While I know that videos can be a bit of a touchy thing on the ol' blog-a-roo, I'm sure we'd all love to see some more!
