Yesterday was a really fun day swimming with my nephew drew and the dogs. It was a perfect summer day, so I thought....
...hmmmm....the dogs are wet....and carin had that whole wet-eyelash-photo-challenge. And there were pics like this etc...And I LOVE challenges, but was all "hmmm, I don't have kids" So when my precious "children" were in the pool and I had my little point and shoot camera....I was all "HEY! I don't have to be left out of the challenge! My dogs have eyelashes!!! I'l show THEM wet eyelashes!"
SO after about 4 hours, I got THIS.
And then FINALLY this.
Challenge indeed! It was like a comedy show. Me. trying to get eyelash pictures. of MY DOGS. Well, I've HAD dumber ideas in life. Mick didn't know what the hell I was doing. When I would hold his head with all my might, he would roll his eyes all the way back. (the first pic) When I would put the ball by my feet so he'd look down he would look side to side so fast all I could finally manage was ONE wet eyelash...barely. Drew just shook his head at me and after a looonnnnggggg time was even all "auntie kristi....WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?" As I told him the whole eyelash challenge, out of breath from chasing them around, he just looked at me puzzled, shrugged his shoulders (in the way only kids can do when they think adults have completely lost their shit and there's a small look of horror on their innocent faces for that flash of thought that this might happen to them when they're adults) and was like "whatever" and jumped in the pool.
Maybe I'll just start dressing the dogs up in cute hats and leggings for my photo shoots. Or maybe it's just time to start reproducing.....
hmmmmm...

I'm going out to baby gap now, to see if they have any cute leggings for maggie.

I love your (very deserving) picture BUT why didn't you just take a picture of drew's (dark brown, long, wet) eyelashes?? sometimes instead of thinking outside the box, you can just look in the pool - just saying.
i am glad you are keeping it real for Drew!!!! and i am SOOOOO glad you played along!! next month will be NON-kid related- no kids allowed!
well cuz everyone else did babies and kids...I dunno...I wanted a challenge??
