Spring Break

Ok apologizing up front about the lack of pictures, but do you see what time I'm posting? I'm going to bed in 3 minutes.

So here is spring break in 3 minutes or less:

First, go visit Mel or Char's blog in a few days. I'm sure they'll post all the details. Then you can see some pictures of Carmella at Funfetti (Meredith made her lace onesie just by eyeballing the photos of Kensington's isn't that talent? And FYI I'm ordering some lace rompers on the cheap so email me if you want one, even if you don't live by me. Shipping would be like a buck or two).

Now here are my top few favorite pictures.

Amaryllis and Kensington snuggling watching a show.



Kensington got lots of soaks in the sink. She had major diaper rash (reaction to strawberries I think) so she sat in the sink with some baking soda. It does wonders! But my tip is do it in the sink, because it leaves a residue so cleaning your sink is easier than scrubbing your tub.



Amaryllis got in on the sink action, of course.



Amaryllis and Rome were so cute to watch together. See Facebook photos for proof. They look like twinners.



Kyler is a cutie pie for sure!



Now let me tell you about The Spanking Game. Did you grow up with us and ever spend the night or something? Then you might recall what it is. If not, listen up.

It is a game invented by my dad, otherwise known as Pawshaw (well it was originally Schrammpa but when AV was learning to talk she got it backwards and it just sort of stuck. Funny story: Mel and Dean's friends came to this spring break trip and I heard Spencer call my mom "ma-shaw". Haha this makes me laugh so hard. He didn't really know if he should call her Scrhammah or MammaBear which is what Jake sometimes calls her, or Mrs Schramm, and it came out Ma-Shaw.)

RULES OF THE SPANKING GAME
as observed by PapaBear Schramm

1. Adult lays in the middle of the floor. Now that I am older and doing the spanking (instead of being the spankee) I realize this is a great game because you get to LAY there and it requires no effort.
2. Kids run around adult and try not to get spanked on the bum. Or get caught/trapped in any other way
3. Inevitably a kid will cry, which is followed by my dad saying "ohhhhh we got one crying, that means it's time for bed". Then the crybaby kid says (through tears) "I'm not crying. I'm {sob} happy! I'm happy!".

Footnote:

To my siblings: I remember things one way and I'm interested to see if our memories all match up.
So answer this question: Who do you recall as being the person to always get hurt/cry and bring The Spanking Game to an abrupt end? Just curious :)
