And the worst mom award goes to...

So we'll start this story off at 5 am this morning when I wake up to Reagan pulling my hair and grunting. I have a pounding headache so I just try to ignore her and I can tell Tim is awake also trying to ignore her. We both lay there waiting for the other to get up with her, I win and Tim gets up with her and takes her downstairs. Point for Jasmine!! So I go back to bed and I wake up and look at the clock and it's 8, I obviously missed my alarm at 7. I jump out of bed because I'm supposed to take Matt and the neighbor girl to school at 7:45!! oops!! I run to his bedroom and he's not there, just fat Toby laying on his bed. So I go to the kitchen assuming he's in there, no luck! So I run downstairs and Tim is asleep on the couch with Reagan so I wake him and ask him if he knew where Matt was and he said he didn't and he thought I took him to school! CRAP!!!

I run back upstairs and check his room again to only find fat Toby sleeping. I go back to the living room and see that the door is unlocked. I go find my phone to call my neighbor and by now I'm really starting to panic! I get a hold of my neighbor and I ask her if she knew where Matt was and she tells me he made it to school and was fine. Apparently he got up and didn't bother to wake me and got all ready for school and walked up the street to get Cambridge and tells her "Jasmine slept in so I had to walk". Are you kidding me!?! I'm going to have to have a little talk about this with him when he gets home!

I mostly felt like an idiot but my neighbor was so good about it and saw the humor in it!
So all is well, Matt is apparently just very independent!



PS- I know I've been slacking lately but as soon as I can figure out how to get these pictures off our new camera I will give a life update!!our new camera I will give a life update!!

  1. Oh Please!!! I've won that award three years running. ;-) That is pretty funny. I love the "lay dead the longest so dad will wake up w/baby game." I'm great at it because I have bad hearing. ;-)

  2. That is just like you Jasmine, I am glad you finally updated your blog a little. I miss you. Are you coming to lunch next Weds? Amber is coming. You should try.

  3. Definitely not the Worst mom...maybe honorable mention at the Questionable mom awards. I play the lay dead game on Sunday morning to try not to wake anyone up for church.
