Last night we were finally alone, just the four of us. We had visitors all weekend (Joe, Paige, and Hunter) and it was so quiet with just us.
Katie was standing on the back of her pink cushiony chair next to the window and as she leaned over, I joked that her tushy butt was showing. We laughed and I looked away for *just* a second. Next thing I heard was her little voice saying "Mommy..."
I looked at her and saw that my dear, sweet, darling daughter was ... MOONING her mommy.
To my credit, I did not laugh. I was very stern when I explained that showing her tushy butt is inappropriate and to fix her underpants and her skirt right this second. Then I heard John choking back his laughter. That made it extra hard to look her in the eye while she sorted it all out. Standing on her pink chair in the window. She was still staring at me and I was still trying to hold it in... until I just couldn't anymore (a combination of John's laughing and Katie's mischivious eye-twinkle). I started to laugh, John let loose and, trying to salvage the lesson I was trying to teach her, I started to say "Oh, Jacob... you're so funny!!!" and John did the same in between gales of laughter! Katie got in on it too after she gave me and Daddy a strange look.
Jake didn't seem to care. But boy was it funny.
