Countdown to Church.....

8:15 am Christian wakes up "Oh crap! It's after 8!"
8:15:10 Christian wakes up Karen "Oh crap!"
8:16 We use the bathroom
8:18 We get Nathan up (who was already awake, for how long, we don't know)
8:19 Run upstairs to feed Nathan some yogurt
8:28 Still feeding Nathan yogurt because he won't take bites fast enough. Karen making herself some toast so she won't puke
8:30 Christian gets in the shower. Karen attempts to find Nathan's church clothes. Nathan watches Little Einsteins
8:40 Karen gets in the shower. Christian gets dressed
8:50 Karen gets dressed and starts doing her make-up. Christian changes Nathan's clothes.
8:59 Nathan is ready. Christian is ready. Karen is finishing her hair. Nathan wanders into the bathroom and wants to wash his hands. Karen gets his little stool and turns on the water.
9:00 Karen is curling her bangs.
9:01 Karen sets down the curling iron. Nathan looks at it. "Don't touch! It's very very hot!"
9:01:10 Nathan touches curling iron, shrinks back in horror and begins to scream.
9:01:15 Karen curses and holds Nathan's hand under the water while Nathan is sobbing.
9:02 Christian hears the noise, runs downstairs and finds the Burn Free ointment. Awesome stuff!
9:07 Nathan still crying, his hand is slathered in burn free and watching Donald Duck cartoons. Christian is warming up the car. Karen is attempting to find a shirt that matches her skirt in her bedroom from hell.
9:12 Christian and Karen search for Nathan's coat so we can go out in the 10 degree weather.
9:22 We make it into the Church.
11:10 We return home with a stinking child, a starving Daddy and a sore-bummed Mommy.
(Those Church chairs don't have enough padding!!)

What an exciting morning. Maybe I'm grateful we still have 1:00 church. Hope Nathan's hand is ok!

I'm with Heather. I have 1pm church and thought I might hate it. Maybe not now! Even without a youngster to get ready, it was near impossible to pull off being ready that early. Yuck.

I love the entertaining time-line, until your wee one got burned! So sorry! 9am church is the evilest thing ever. Oh, wait, I shouldn't say church is evil...
