Easter pictures and laundry

The boys were supposed to have Easter/7 month/4 1/2 year pictures on the 10th.  The lack of pictures in this post isn't due to laziness or technical difficulties.  Pictures were scheduled for 9:30 a.m.  I was getting their clothes ironed and ready Saturday night. I pulled Jacob's polo shirt out of the dryer, the shirt that he has never worn, to find something had bled all over it in the wash. It was a sea-green color shirt and it looked like it had red wine all over the collar and two buttons. I wanted to cry.

I treated the shirt with an assortment of products and washed it again. It has been washed about ten more times since then and you can still see the stain. Its better, but still there.

I called Sunday morning and canceled our appointment. They had matching outfits for Easter and the store I bought it at didn't open until noon. I looked online for the shirt and it was no longer displayed on the website...guh-reat.  I called and they had ONE left in his size.  Hooray!!  Jeff picked it up for me and what do you know??  It was half-off!  SCORE!! 

This time, I'm not watching it before he wears it to pictures.  Maybe I should try some of those new Shout things that are supposed to catch colors?  It wasn't even something red. I had already learned my lesson with red clothes.

Stay tuned for some pictures so cute you can hardly stand it!!
