Aug. 12, 2008 - Tough choice
I do get a lot of great pictures of my kids, but the times I really wish I had a camera in hand, I usually don't. Last night the camera was charging up, and I missed one of the best shots ever.
We were sitting at the table and Biruk had gotten down to wander around. After a while, we started to hear some little fussy noises, as if he was frustrated. These escalated to grunts, then angry yells. But we couldn't find him! He was clearly nearby, but where? Under the table? No. Behind the couch? No. In the kitchen? No. His cries kept getting louder.
Finally we found him. He was behind Josiah's chair. In a bucket.
His chubby little rear end was fully engaged in my yellow diaper bucket (empty and clean, I might add!). He was folded right in half, with his little feet up by his chin, arms flapping around helplessly. I was seriously tempted to run upstairs for the camera, but I knew that would make me a Bad Mommy. So I picked him up and presented the butt/bucket to Josiah so he could free the baby.
You'll just have to imagine the picture he made, stuck in that bucket.

Oh, I think you're a bad mommy for NOT taking that pic! LOL What our little ones can get into never fails to amaze me.
