Isaac's Near Death Experience...

How did it happen, you ask? Could it be that Isaac nearly got run over by a car in our street? No. Could it be that Isaac fell from a high place? No. Could it be that Isaac's mother and father nearly strangled the child at the portrait studio this morning because he was throwing the world's worst no-i-wont-take-my-picture-and-you-wont-make-me-and-i-wont-stop-crying-even-though-youve-promised-me-candy-toys-soda-and-mcdonalds tantrum? Yes. Most definitely.
So much for family photo day. We were there for 2...TWO...flipping hours and have NOT ONE family shot to show for it. Not ONE! We have a few shots of the boys but that's it. And Isaac is not even remotely smiling. Ugh. Seriously. It was so stressful. Nathan wanted to blow a fuse and suffice it to say that I did. I guess I will have to edit my list below to say that I most definitely have the worse temper. OOOhhhhh he made me so mad.
Anyways....


On a lighter note...we went to the National Peanut Festival in Dothan on Saturday. Those things are such money traps. David wanted to play carnival games but we wouldn't cause they're ridiculously expensive and you never win anything. But we let the boys ride a few rides and we got some boiled peanuts and shelled nuts, and cinnamon nuts, and pralines and I think I'm nutted out. I would have to say that the highlight was when David said he wanted to ride the "Super Slide" so we gave him his tickets and he climbed to the top with his potato sack and then chickened out at the top. So Nathan paid his two tickets to go up and try to convince him which resulted in a tantrum at the top of the Super Slide where all of creation could see (and many were enjoying actually) and then Nathan eventually plopping David physically down onto one of the potato sacks, sitting next to him on his own and having David claw at him to get him up and him pulling David down the slide next to him. All the while David is screaming and lying on his back. sigh.

I'm pretty tired.
