85/365:

With precious baby Harper just down for her afternoon nap, & dad (?) wanting to visit Cabazon, we left Uncle Matt behind to babysit & simultaneously finish his nerd-work on the laptop that would be going back to Brett…

Dad, mom, sister & I out for a shopping day, in the rain, that we rather enjoyed…

10 minutes from home I received a picture message to my phone; apparently, she was awake…

Yes, you are correct, he had been babysitting for all of ten minutes before using his ipad to entertain her… :/…sigh….

We shopped and shopped, grabbed a coffee… & returned home four hours later…

Greeted at the door by Uncle Matt, insisting that we “ssshhhhh!!!!” because,

“I just got her to sleep.”  We give him a raised eyebrow or two, but didn’t utter a peep.

Later that evening…

after downing bowls of death-by-chocolate goodness,

Megan decides to show Matt a video.

Oh the phenomena that is YouTube…

Oh the silly things that have resulted because of it.

like tonight.

Have you ever tried to crack an egg by crushing it in the palm of your hand?

No?

Why would you ever want to spend time doing that? 

Good point.

Only YouTube would give time and encouragement to such mindless pursuits…

Of course, Matt had to give it a go.

He did, to his credit, try this over the sink.

At first it did not appear that there would be success…

I do not care about such things and went back to playing with Harper.

Till I heard mom gasp…

The look on Matt’s face was priceless…

Egg went everywhere… I mean everywhere…

Splashing ooey lines of goo all over the sink, counter, cabinets, fridge, floor…

Egg catapulted everywhere…

There was, in fact, a trail of egg across the entire living room…

 & one husband left standing there, in front of the sink, like a deer in headlights…

& thus…

After giving him more raise eyebrows…

I decided to join him…

& give it a go myself… 

 

We finished out the day with blankets and popcorn and soda-pops… all snuggled down in front of a movie that drifted late into the night.
