Our Morning Routine

Me in the shower, barely popping open the shampoo bottle....

Ashlyn (opening the bathroom door)... Mom, Mom, MOM!
Me: What?
Ashlyn: Are you in here?
Me: Yes
Ashlyn: Ok just checkin

Two seconds later...

Ashlyn: Mom, Mom, MOM!
Me What?
Ashlyn: Are you STILL in here?
Me: YES
Ashlyn: Ok just chekin again

One millisecond later..

Adrianna: Mom, Mom, MOM!
Me: What Adrianna?
Adrianna: Are you taking a shower?
Me: (big sigh) Yes honey.
Adrianna: Ok I'll go tell Ashlyn

1 minute later...

The shower curtain opens and a light from a flashlight is shining in my face...
Ashlyn and Adrianna: Mom we found you, can we have a Popsicle?
Me: (even bigger sigh) Not now.

Finally done with my shower, I shut the door and begin brushing my teeth, one second after shutting the door I notice four small hands underneath the door.
Ashlyn: Mommy can you see my hand... touch it ok!
Adrianna: Mom, please touch my hand.
Ashlyn: (hands flailing about) Mom don't forget to brush your teeth so you don't have stinky breath.

Ahh the joys of motherhood... It's amazing we even make it out the door in the morning!
