Manicure Malfunction

We went to Charlottetown today to purchase some things for the new baby.

Yes.

I'm nesting!

Must get prepared and have things in order for when this little one comes home.

We also made plans to meet up with one of Mark's coworkers for lunch.

Since I knew we'd be eating in a restaurant,

I packed extra 'entertainment'

to keep Miss P busy in case she got ants in her pants. 

Dear God!

She didn't just have a few ants in there today,

but an entire ARMY!!!

TWO ARMIES!

I don't think she sat still for one moment.

Add that to the fact that Mark's friend had chosen a BOOTH for us to sit in. 

A BOOTH!

1. I have a two year old. How do you strap a two year old into a booth?

2. I'm 37 weeks pregnant. Can't push your chair out for more clearance in a booth!!

3. The freaking sun was streaming in through the window, straight into my eyes. 

And then, 

the food took FOREVER and Piper's milk never did arrive.

Want to see a crazy pregnant woman?

You should have been there!

Anyway,

sorry,

I went off on a bit of a tangent there for a moment.

The point of my story

is that we all know that kids and restaurants don't always go well together.

So,

I brought extra entertainment.

(Back on track here I think!)

One of the things I brought was nail polish.

I thought that Piper would sit quietly while I put it on,

then sit quietly while it dried,

and then not want to touch anything afterwards

in fear that she may smudge her manicure.

Sigh.

I must have the worst case of pregnancy brain ever.

This is Piper we're talking about.

NEVER assume and NEVER underestimate what she'll do.

The nail polish ended up being a great distraction...

for 3 minutes. 

And the polish was rubbed off of her two index fingers

by the time lunch was over.

Why those two fingers??

Why else?

She's the world's best nose picker. 

It's lovely when the boogers are coming out in different shades of pink and purple!

xo

Notice the one finger that is missing nail polish!

The right hand.
THIS hand must be SUPER for picking,
since TWO fingers are missing polish! 

37 weeks along!
This was my goal all along since baby is considered full term now.
Do you see how fitting into a booth can be challenging?
And yes, I feel as exhausted and exasperated as I look in this photo!
SIGH!
