Planking.

So for those of you that don't know what planking is -- you should Google it before reading any further. And for those of you that do know what it is, I'm going to give you the back story on our night, while the others look it up :)

We went and had a GNI with Jenn and Dylan last night and Kadence became pretty infatuated with a little car that D had gotten for Christmas. In fact she loved it SO much that I've decided to put it on the short list of "Things my daughter doesn't already have, but NEEDS pronto" -- it's a short list because I'm ALWAYS buying her things..haha So everyone's playing with this big pink/purple car and getting along -- now mind you it only has a swinging door on the left side of it. Well out of nowhere, Kadence decides to stand up on the seat and try to exit stage right -- quickly -- so quickly in fact, I couldn't get there till after she'd bailed and I had a hysterical baby on my hands. Observe.

Yeah I stalked it a little to find this!

She finally calmed down after the whole experience and went back to her usual ways -- ie taking EVERY single thing from Dylan that she picks up to play with and grubbing on O's. Well, about an hour later, I notice that she's decided that the car is her friend again and climbs in and out about a dozen times with no issues. (welcome back those of you that had to Google "planking"..you're just in time) Out of nowhere, my daughter who either has watched too much YouTube or has decided that she's going to reinvent the wheel, decides that shes going to climb in on the other side and gets stuck half way over -- hence the planking effect. She was quite literally stuck in limbo -- not really in the car but far enough in that she couldn't get out. And she started freaking out. Now, being the good mom that I am, I rushed to her side as quickly as I could to alleviate her stress...but the bad mom in me definitely wanted to grab the camera and snap a shot or video the hilariousness of her predicament. But I didn't. *sigh* So here's another visual :)

Picture her little feet being completely off the ground
and struggling, half in and half out of the little car.

All in all, the night was a success as usual. Kadence truly loves playing with Dylan and I couldn't look more forward to having some "adult" time in my life every once in a while.
