H&M, Ralph Lauren Boy, This is CRAZY - February 25

Another disclaimer: I write these things quickly and late at night.  I may miss some of the most funny parts of the day so I will let my sister comment and fill those in.  Also I may not spell everything right or use the best grammar.  Thank you.

Woke up this morning exhausted but excited.  I let Morgan sleep as long as possible.  And just a side note, the fighting the night before was all for nothing. Daniel slept the WHOLE NIGHT!!!
We got ready and I put about five other outfits in the car and we left to pick up our stylist, hahaha, aka my sister, aka aunty, aka the best ever!
Our audition time for H&M was 10:40am at Smashbox Studios in Culver City.  Our fourth trip to the LA area this week.
We found the studio and then looked for somewhere to go the bathroom and get a quick power snack for Morgan.  My sister spotted a Chevron so we stopped there and she took Morgan to the bathroom and came back with snacks and scratchers.  If you know anything about my sister and I we LOVE scratcher lotto tickets.  I mean we are addicted.  And yes I do let Morgan sometimes scratch a few.
We left the gas station and went to the parking lot at the studio where the audition was being held to scope out the competition.  My sister said she didn't see anything great so we started scratching our tickets when my sister's husband called.  Morgan wanted to talk to Uncle Erik and she AGAIN called us out.  He must have asked her what we were doing and she said, "Oh nothing, just eating junk food and scratching off lotto tickets."  Our secret addiction with a 5 year old conspiring is now out in the open!
We didn't win any money off of those like we did off the ones a few days ago HAHAHA
Then we got Morgan ready and headed in.  Here she is in the parking lot before we went inside.


This audition was slightly different from the others because we didn't sign in.  Instead we waited in along line for our turn.  We happened to be behind a little boy named Jackson.  I thought he was stinking cute and so did Morg who quickly struck up a conversation with him and they played angry birds on the ipad together.  In speaking with Jackson's mom I noticed they had the same agent.  She told me about the things he had done and my jaw just dropped, so did Cara's.
THIS is JACKSON:

I stole this picture from the Ralph Lauren website where he is currently one of their top child models.  You may have seen him in Gap ads, a few commercials, Osh Kosh BGosh, etc.
He is amazing and a normal kid.  Morgan loved him, they were singing LMFAO while we waited for their turn.  So cute.  Oh and he got the H&M print ad last year so he's pretty much a shoo in.
Morgan went after him at the audition, it was a mini photo shoot, she did great, but so did the thousands of other kids who were also there i'm sure.
Jackson's mom and I exchanged numbers for a play date.  (I have more pictures of Jackson and Morgan I will share tomorrow, they are on the ipad, I'm too tired to get it.)
We headed back towards home and I took Morgan to dance class. (no her day isn't over yet)  She had a private dance lesson for her solo which she debuts at her first competition in two weeks.
Then we went home.  Daphne missed her and she played with her sister and brother before she passed out pretty early.  Daphne was a little upset with her sister being gone so much

I tried taking a cute picture of them in their matching sun dresses from grandma but Daphne was mid swing.  Morgan got upset and so that ended our play time.
Now I'm feeling pretty beat, kids are in bed, Dan gets off work at 3am so Im going to grab some sleep until then.  I don't think I'm lucky enough to have Daniel sleep through the night two nights in a row but we shall see. 
BTW, this is a crazy crazy week we've had!!! OH and i made baby food squash all by myself today AND gas is almost five dollars a gallon WHAT WHAT??
