Going about my normal monday routine

...cleaning, laundry etc., and came across my littlest one dancing along to Bella Dancerella.
She does ask to do this all the time, but I guess I've never watched. A mistake I won't soon forget. Glad I was able to catch her this time. I stopped and watched for a while and boy was she into it. I think we've created a monster.

And then there was this (click to enlarge).


I couldn't resist posting this, it was just too funny. So funny I couldn't help laughing in front of poor Tess who put her hands over my mouth to get me to stop. I in know way meant to be insensitive, but I simply couldn't help myself.

When the girls walked in the door from school I was downstairs and heard Tess crying. Bella was very irritated and said, "Tess you don't have to cry just because you got puked on!" I wondered what in the world she was talking about so I made my way to them.

I took one look at Tess and couldn't help laughing, it wasn't so much at her or the incident because I didn't know what happened, but her teachers had put her in a interesting set of sweat pants. She just looked funny and you could tell totally distraught by what happened at school. I hugged her tight, so as not to get caught laughing, which was when the trying to cover my mouth occurred. Once I was able to composed myself I asked what happened. She told me her and two other friends were on a tired swing spinning really fast, when it stopped her friend puked all over her. What are the chances?

Did you check out the notice that came home with her bagged up puked on cloths. I love the line written in that read, "Tess was in the way of an accident :(". That made me laugh again. Tell me I'm not the only one who finds this funny. I am sure having a hard time not laughing as I type this.

I think she's ok now due to the popsicle and immediate change of cloths and hope she is forgiving of all the laughing I did.

Man, don't you just love how motherhood brings surprises each and every day.

Poor Tess! Her teacher's comment totally cracks me up, as if Tess was somehow a part of the accident. "She should have put in the wrong place at the wrong time."

And yes, you aren't the only one who finds this amusing. :)

Oh my, this is totally funny! So sad really, I think if someone puked on me I would die. Perhaps she was more distraught having to wear the horrible sweat pants provided by the school? Lol. The look on her face says it all.

Love the little one dancing, there is a preview on the Curious George DVD that shows "Barbie and the Twelve Dancing Princesses" and everytime Jothan sees it, he begins to twirl and dance...my husband just cringes. So hilarious, gotta love those moments!

That is so funny, Tess will laugh at this some day too. When I read that note I was trying to imagine how Tess could have gotten in the middle of someone going to the bathroom, I hadn't considered the puke option.

Megan looks so cute doing her dance program. Good times.

Elizabeth said...

Oh those spare school clothes. This gave me a good chuckle too. Poor girl.

michelle said...

Hee hee! Yep, pretty hilarious. Poor girl, no one likes to be thrown up on -- or wear dumb clothes. She may be able to find the humor in this at some point!

Megan doing Bella Dancerella, how cute is that?

Poor thing! You know it's traumatic and going to be a go-to story when she's older and can laugh at it.

I also though someone had peed on her. The puke is far worse. But also hilarious. Very!

I would also have a hard time not laughing, the look alone. When Brynn was three and in a preschool class the teacher gave her a snack and than put her on the tire swing, bad idea, she puked. The teacher called to tell me she was sick and when I got there, than informed she that she thinks it was the swing. We had a rule not eating than spinning. I feel bad for the poor student as well.

And love the dancing megan, way too cute. I love when we get to slow down and watch and remember why we are so thankful that our husbands do what they do so we can stay home

That would definitely have me laughing as well. Sometimes it's so hard to be sensitive in those crucial little moments !

rebecca said...

Oh, sweet girl. Just look at that injured, indignant face. She did need a popsicle today!

It is so funny. But if it happened to me, I think I would still be dry heaving just thinking about it! What a trooper! Don't get charge $15 bucks for that outfit! :)

Oh, the look on her face says it all, poor thing! That happened to Avery this year -- so awful! And like you really want to open that bag up?? The note was quite amusing.

Amberly said...

Oh that was hilarious, and I'm laughing at you trying not to laugh! And the pic of Megan dancing is precious... what a sweet little girl. Never dull at your house I'm guessing!

Luckily, my babe is still dancing in the house (to jack's Big Music Show) and she can't wait to follow in your M's footsteps (pardon the pun).

Although I love her little, secretly part of me is very excited to see what adventures and hilarity her growing up brings! (Poor Bella - not nice to laugh, but really kind of funny in an i-am-so-sorry-it-happened-to-you-
but-what-are-the-chances-kind-of-way
which can only be followed by a hug and a few you-too-will-laugh-at-this-when-you-are
-older giggles.)

Poor girl. I think that would be fairly considered a bad day for her. I was laughing reading your post though. I can only imagine how hard it was to keep the laughing under control in front of her....and the note? And the clothes? Too funny.

Unknown said...

i caught jack dancing along with apolo anton ono during 'dancing with the stars's last night. i'm so glad i did!

jenny said...

Poor girl. I probably would have chuckled too. I think motherhood brings unexpected surprises everyday.

Such a cute shot of Bella dancing.

Liz said...

Poor Tess! What an awful thing to have happen to you! I would be laughing to at that note.

carlo said...

Poor Tess!

My daughter would be more upset about the sweatpants than the puke, I think...be sure you send the sweatpants back. $15 is an expensive pair of sweatpants...

I was thinking about the spare clothes at school the other day. I don't know why, but I remember having a dream when I was little about having to change my clothes at school after an accident. Having lots of brothers and sisters I have been puked on my fair share of times. That is no fun. Poor Tess.
