Pic Day at School

So today is picture day at school for Lake, however, I have a feeling that these won't turn out good.  So in preparation, last night I got his outfit together, set my clock to wake up early so I have a little more time to get me and him ready, and had his school bags packed.  He went to bed at his usual 7:00, but around 11:45 he wakes up crying.  So Im gonna let him cry for a minute to see if he will fall back asleep, didn't happen though. :(    So I go in his room to try to rock him back to sleep, well now he is just mad a throwing a fit, throws himself down on the floor, wont stop crying, wont take his bottle, wont take his medicine (he has an ear infection).   So now I bring him to the living room to try to feed him some yogurt (I thought he might be hungry), and he didnt want that either but he did stop crying.  So when I have him calmed down and almost asleep, I go to bring him back to his room and he starts crying again.  Im exhausted by this point, so I bring him to bed with me.  Its official, this was the first time Lake has slept in my bed with me!  Immediately he fell asleep, and Im so glad he got a good nights sleep after all that, cause I sure DID NOT!  That lil boy kicks, turns, crawls on me, rolls off of me, spins, headbutts me, and everything else in his sleep!  So needless to say, we are both tired this morning, and he is kranky.  He has dark puffy circles around his eyes that Im sure will look great in his pictures!  lol  And I want to give him his medicine before school, so his ear wont be bothering him making him kranky at school before they attempt to take his pictures, but I put a little in his mouth and he spits it out, so I put some more...  he spits that out too, so I try one last time...  and he spits that out as well!  Then I drop him off at school, and since Curt went offshore he is having separation anxiety, so he starts screaming and crying when I try to leave.  The teacher has to come pull him off my leg so I could go out the door (*tear).    So much for trying to have a good pic day! I give up! Here is a sneak peak of his outfit....

I swear he was laughing and playing right before I pulled out the camera. See the Mardi Gras beads?  He just  hates having his picture made (you would think he would be used to it!).  He always looks sad/mad/tired. 

 

Give me this thing!   This is right before he took my camera from me!
