Every time I sit down to edit some pictures of Annabel, I am treated to a surprise. Not a “OH that shot turned out better than I thought!” surprise. No, these are of the “OMG I can’t believe he took a picture of me like that!” variety.
Mike has been picking up my camera when I’m sleeping. Not to take cute pictures of Annabel – to take embarrassing pictures of me sleeping.
As every parent knows, you just grab sleep when you can. I am always fighting it, because as every new parent also knows, when the baby is down, that’s when you actually get stuff DONE. But that means that my body kind of forces me to take little cat naps when I’m not expecting it.
Rigby is obviously very concerned.
Or sometimes I am really tired, but someone else is NOT.
thanks for stopping him, girls!
I also have a habit of falling asleep when I’m watching TV. My glasses suffer.
Mike isn’t much of a napper (I don’t know how he does it) but today! Today I got my revenge!
Stop taking pictures of me Mike!!
Katie says:
Ha Ha! LOVE these pics! They MUST go in Annie’s baby book!! I do medical billing and there is a new diagnosis code……caffeine poisoning….this is what it looks like Mike has….either that or he is on a diet coke drunk… HA HA HA!! Yall are amazing!!! Your girls are gorgeous!!
Kate @ UpsideBackwards says:
Hahahaha! You should have drawn a mustache on him or something! The first pic shows just how tired you must have been – it looks really uncomfortable, but you’re sound asleep anyway. Glad you’re having some fun with each other – even if you’re not both awake at the same time

I love to nap, but can ONLY nap when I am in bed, w earplugs and even then it takes over 30min-60min to fall asleep! So when I have a newborn, it is a nightmare. I can’t get a nap even started before the baby is awake again!

What I *love* in the last pic is not only the SIX Diet Coke cans *and* the bottle behind them, but the fact that he’s posed almost Ed-Bundy-ish with one hand near his pants waistline.

I now use this as the picture that pops up on my phone when he calls, AND I displayed that sucker on Facebook for the entire world to see. If you happen to add me on FB long enough to take a look, you can see the revenge-goodness for yourself.

That is hilarious! My dh has taken a few of those (I actually have too now that I think of it). BTW, you look NICE in most of your sleep pics…how fair is that? The one with your precious in the swing and you semi-sitting on the couch is classic…looks like it could be an ad for new parents.

Whoa, Mike. Dangerous, dangerous move. It is quite clear that Heather is the camera master, and she’s got great reason to come after you with that lens. I’d watch out if I were you.
I just want to pinch Annie’s cheeks. I also love that she’s displaying the fists of fury previously referenced in a post pre-arrival. Too, too cute.
Marie says:
Okay, I have to comment on the two funny things (among many)! I love that the lens of your glasses under your nose is actually fogged up, cracks me up, and that personal collection of coke cans rivals my own! Thanks for letting me know there are other normal people suffering from my guilty addiction! (and you have a much better excuse for yours) You have a beautiful family! May the future bring much joy!

” can’t figure out how Mike does it”

I just still think you guys are the greatest.
Love to you

OMG – I got a huge laugh out of these pics! My husband did the same to me when our daughter was a newborn. The one of you curled up on the floor next to Annie in her boppy was the cutest, but the glasses half off your face was just too funny! Enjoy the madness, and perhaps Mike needs some lipstick and blusher next time you catch him napping?

That picture with the row of Coke cans & bottle speaks volumes about the life of a new parent. Love the pictures! Keep ’em coming!
Jen L. says:
My tray table looked JUST LIKE THAT when Dean was born! Diet Coke is a must for new parents.

You guys are hilarious. That last picture of Mike with the diet coke cans is the best ever. I think that last picture alone is retaliation for all the pictures he took of you sleeping! Fortunately for you, you always look cute–even passed out.

HAHAAHAAAA! OH WOW!
Katie C. says:
Also, I have a history of kidney stones – and my doctor said that my penchant for Pepsi isn’t helping. Tell Mike to be careful with that Coke – it could cause Kidney stones! YEOUCH!
Emily says:
Well, I typically find pictures of MY BUTT courtesy of my husband! LOL

That was hilarious! Mike you better watch out!
Lori says:
Love the photos! Now, I feel much better after seeing Mike’s diet coke line-up. I have the same thing going on with coke zero! LOL
Expat Mom says:
You know, Annie is going to LOVE these pictures when she’s older! Especially when she has kids of her own.
I’m a Diet Coke addict myself. I know it’s bad, but without it, I’m just not able to make it through my very, very long days.
