da da da da dinnertime (s)dadness -or- the golden hour for photos and meltdowns

Image
May has been a good month for evening photos and not going to bed on time (w/ subsequent meltdowns).  When we're outside it seems we get to watch the beauty of our children without being terrorized by them.  I've enjoyed making this album and some of the story-crops below! It's history. it's transstory, it's herstory, it's theirstory, it's Miramonte at night.   Also Lana Del Rey. how is re-releasing the same shit still great sometimes (except for Taylor who always makes it great).   Can't wait to try eating one ....I think.   Grass Soup fuck off i can do what sissy does! no recital. '90's night.  all night.  wait what were the '90's anyway? weather than cancels recitals. mayhem II mom's crowded table sunset screensaver with traffic tonies with sissy are the best tonies

last move from chino

The last drive from Chino included shenanigans as would be expected if you were trying for things to go smoothly. Firstly a 10% chance of rain turned into a epic downpour. This was as the sunset. We had planned to leave earlier but you know... We noticed the tires on the trailer were low, so we went to a gas station to pump them up. With a heavy load the trailer tires would not pump up because the compressor was too puny. This was soon so by going to a new gas station only to find that the automatic air pump had some holes in it. By pressing hard I managed 10 extra pounds of air pressure to get back on the road. Baby screaming and sued and we were still an hour from getting her her favorite bottle at Target in the valley. Baby had gone without her favorite nipple for 3 days and was finally done. We did manage to get out of the pretty quickly and didn't think we would get home too late. We had predicted midnight and now we predicted 10:00 p.m. The gods did not smile favorably on us.
