ok, I should win because you are drawing this on my b-day and I will be really old, ha! My most embarassing moment was when my son was about 2 1/2yrs old and we were grocery shopping. I had a whole cart full of stuff and he started running through the isles screaming because I wouldn't go down the toy isle. I wasn't going to budge. I didn't want to leave all my stuff so I tried to catch him. He was loud and I started to cry because I could not calm him down. I finally left my stuff, picked him up and walked outside. I had called my dh (who is a police officer and was on duty) because I couldn't stop crying. I sat in the car until he got there as my son flailed around in the back. So my dh showes up in uniform, gets my son in the carseat and I cried the rest of the way home. I am so glad I can laugh about it now but I have never been so embarrased in my life! I felt like the worst mother in the world. I hope my baby girl NEVER does this to me!

Ok, this is my first time leaving a post on a blog so I'm not sure how it works....this is Hayley from Foundations. So my most embarrassing moment was when I spent the night at a friends house and we stayed up all night. Around 5:00 a.m. we decided to go streaking. It was Saturday so we didn't think anyone would be getting up to go to work. We took off all of our clothes and went running down the street...and it felt great! Talk about air in places that have never breathed fresh air before! Anyways, I yelled "I've always wanted to run outside naked!" just as we came around the bend in the road. Well, we ran right into a large group of boy scouts sitting in the back of a truck! They were getting ready to go camping. The worst part is that I was so stunned I just stood there......talk about embarrassing! Ever since then these guys have had called me "knickers" cause I had "forgotten" to put on my knickers.
No one look at my blog yet cause it's not even close to being done yet!
Well, here's mine. But I don't think that I or anyone can top Hayley, LOL!
About 9 years ago I was a Birth Doula, I was also just a little bit pregnant too. I was with a client at their birth and all was going well until, I was giving mom a relaxing hand massage, coaching her through her breathing when all of the sudden I started feeling the dreaded morning sickness come on. I had to excuse myself and run to their bathroom and throw up! Not a pretty site. Wait, there's more. After a few hours mom decides she wants to get an epidural. So the midwife, (she was my midwife too) whom I had worked with on several births comes in to check on mom. I'm standing with mom holding her while she gets the epidural. I all the sudden feel light headed and like I'm going to get sick again. I had to ask the midwife to trade me places because I wasn't feeling well. Talk about embarrased! Here I am supposed to be all professional and I throw up and about pass out while I'm with a client!
Here's mine - I was 19 or so and living in my college town. I worked at a group home for children with disabilities and was asked to become guardian of one of the girls with whom I had a good relationship. The social work arranged for a pro bono attorney to do the paperwork. Went in one day and got er done right there in the lawyer's office.
I returned to my home town for a visit and there was a message on my answering machine that I'd left my "perscription" in the office. My birth control pills. Ooops.

OK - I just proofed my comment and when you put together "got er done" and losing my birth control pills it sounds like I did the deed with the lawyer in his office! Not the case -we got the guardianship paperwork done.
Sheesh - this blog entry has become one of my embarassing moments!
OK, here is one for the books...
Just last year, my buddy and I decided to take our kids to one of the HUGE indoor waterpark resorts (stay the night and swim)near our city. All was great and time to check out. Her kids were ansy to swim for a while longer so I said I would check out while she took the 3 kids to the waterslides. Wearing my still-damp board shorts and a damp tankini, I load the cars and check out. I head back into the indoor waterpark and walk around for 20 minutes trying to find them (and my 2 year old). I find them, threw my shoes and stuff on a lawn chair and headed toward them in the wave pool. Im ankle deep. I go to re-tie my board shorts as they felt loose. AHHHH, no drawstring. Look down, no board shorts either. I totally took off my shorts. Just my pink bikini panties! I went numb. Completely numb. What the heck just happened, I thought. I obviously had to something. (Im laughing so hard right now, I can hardly type:) I see my shorts, 20feet away under the foot of the lawn chair. I have to walk over there, in my underwear and I have to BEND OVER to get them! THEN...I cant get the dang things back on cuz they were still damp! Im jumping and wiggling trying to squeeze into them when I look up and see....right next to me...a floor to ceiling glass window/wall that has the fancy resturant on the other side and full of families having Sunday brunch, laughing out of control. They must of watched this whole moment happen, in addition to about 200+ people in the pool and surrounding chairs. I could of died... I get the shorts sorta-on and go back in to the pool hoping a giant wave would sweep me away, for good! LOL-Awful moment, just awful!
Okay my embarassingmoment isnt anything compared to you girls!!! My 2 yr old son has a fasicnation with smacking butts!!! He will only do it when you bend over like to pick up something but he is quick!! Him and his dad have this game where they run in circles and try to get each other its really cute anyway so Tylers OT therapist was at the house and he threw something so she bent over to pick it up and all you here is a LOUD smack Tyler had gotten her butt and she just looked at me like OMG what are you teaching him!! And to top it off she was a new therapist she had only came like 2 times!! Okay so I have another one to i was kinda of embarassed but you just have to know tyler!! Okay we went to St. louis to see a GI doctor and it was our first visit well Tyler is blind in the right side of both eyes so he likes to feel and touch things!! And remind you he is right at crouch level so The GI doc walks in and tyler went to say hi and smacked him right in the growing!! I was so embabrassed I know its not his fault i wish he was a little taller and maybe he would hit the belly instead!!! Kids they keep you on your toes thats for sure!! I love all these drawing you ladies are doing!
OK well this is going to be one of those embarrassing PERSONAL stories. Back a few years ago, when I had a "real" job as an aesthetician, I had been doing Brazilians waxes for about 6 months on other brave women and felt that i was ready to perform one on my own... on me. We had closed the spa and there was 2 other workers cleaning up when I told them i was going to go wax. I locked myself in the treatment room, got all the wax and supplies all together, got naked and hopped on the table. The first rip went well. Painful but I am abig girl I can take this. So moving down a little further, I slap the wax on, hold my breath and did a little pep talk that i can do this.... I go to pull and nothing. it would not come off. The only thing I could say, was... well i am sure you could imagine the only word i could say. it was not a nice one. After calming myself down i go to grab the wax again to pull it off. Again nothing, but this time it was followed by tears and screaming. I could not even prep myself with a good talk to brave thru it. I had no idea what to do. WHAT was I going to do??? I layed there, legs wide open for the world to see, wax stuck on a place that I would not personally recommend, freaking out!!! 30 min had passed and by now i am sweating with fear, anxiety and pain. The only thing that i could figure out was to call for help. So from across the spa I yelled for someone to help me. praying that someone other than the janitor was still there. Finally someone did show up (receptionist) and thru her laughing she called for the other gal to come help. Of course they had no keys and I could not get up, they decided to break down the door. I am sure to them the whole situation looked too funny, but to me, I was passed humiliation and onto "get this freaking thing off of me!!!" Long story short, it took both of them to hold me down, a waxing stick to bite on, and one good pull. As they are rolling laughing, i sat there trying to stop the bleeding, gazing at that evil strip of wax thinking that I will never do this again. No matter how much i loved the guy!!
Years ago I worked as a childcare teacher in a center. My class had 2 year olds in it. One day one of the dads dropped of his little boy. One of the girls Miss L stuck her hand on to give the dad something. Suddenly he looked at me and I looked back with a I'm so sorry look. Miss L had poop on her hand. It seems she had reached in her diaper then decided to give it to this dad. I then had to take the entire class back in the room to get Miss L cleaned up. We were getting ready to head to the cafeteria for lunch. I felt so bad for the dad. All I could say was I'm sorry.

I will tell you about my most embarrassing moment that involves photography.
I was shooting a wedding last year and was about to meet the groom to do some pics of him and his buddies. Well, I knocked on the door to the room that they were all in and the best man answered laughing and drinking. I should have known after that....... ;) So I asked him if I could get the groom out to do pictures and he invited me inside to talk to the groom myself. Well, lets just say that I met the groom (for the first time) with his pants DOWN! He was still getting dressed and all the guys were laughing like crazy while I was beat red! I was so embarrassed that I turned my head and just laughed with them.
LOL never again.
You know me! :)

Okay here is one of my most embarassing moments:
My husband made it to all of my OB appointments. It got to be a routine towards the end. One of my last appointments I was laying on the bed baring all and getting an internal. The Doctor steps out and says " get dressed I will be right back" Well at 39 weeks I was not a graceful soul! I wiggled and squirmed to a sitting position on the bed and then slid off. While I did that I tore the paper that lays on the bed. I didn't think anything of it, but while I was dressing my husband is having a heart attack laughing so hard, his face is beat red and tears are streaming down his face. I kept asking what was so funny... Apparently my ass decided to eat the paper and there was a 2 foot section stuck between my cheeks. I started crying. So while I was trying to compose myself Jamie, my husband, was trying to fix the paper on the bed so the doctor wouldn't see. To this day I hate that awful paper!
Well, mine is real simple but was VERY embarassing. A group of 6 went out to eat. As we were finishing up our meal I excused myself to go to the restroom. I finished up in the bathroom and headed back to join my DH and friends at the table and I had to walk by at least 7-8 tables full of people to get to my table. I noticed out of the corner of my eye that people were really beginning to stare at me and a few even had a muffled giggle! By the time I got to my table my husband has his head down on the table and my friends are laughing their heads off! I had wiped my behind with the toliet paper but needless to say not all the toliet paper went into the toliet!!!!! There was half of a roll hanging out the back of my pants and flowing on the floor behind me!!!! No Lie! I was so embarrased I thought I would pass out! Praise the Lord I only had to PEE!!!! However, I quickly composed myself and began laughing with them all as I was tearing off toliet paper and turned around and looked at the other people at their tables and I simply said, "You all acted like you were bored stiff so now you've some excitement! For a long time after that my DH would tell me when I was headed to a restroom, "Cindy, be sure there is no toliet paper hanging out your butt!.
One of the many embarassing moments of Penny Murray (pennypaige_murray@yahoo.)
Back when I was 18 and was dating my husband, I somehow accidently called my -B- on my cell phone. He sat there and listened to me go on and on to a girl friend about how in love I was with him and how I thought he was "the one." After listening to me gush to my friend, he then called and said "So I hear you are terribly in love with me and want to marry me!" I was horrified!!!( Thank God he felt the same way, but he didn't mention that at the time!) I was still pretty angry he embarassed me so badly!
Bethany I forgot to leave my email w/ my embarrassing moment sorry!!

Okay, I have lots of embarrassing moments but this one pops in my mind.
A local pub in my city has a quiz night which I had been attending for about a year. One week the Dixie Chicks played and came back the following week. With a little liquid courage I went to chat and they invited me to sit down (I had given them a few correct answers). I was chatting with them and their friends. The sister of one of the Chicks is a photographer and I think the sister in law runs a dog rescue group and had a puppy with her. So, I was holding the puppy (I am a huge dog fan) and chatting w/ the photographer. I also drink a beer mix called a Snake Bite so it was sampled around the table. After I sat down I hardly drank since I did not want to get drunk and make a fool of myself. Anyway--long story short--end of the night I was trying to return the puppy, get the business card of the photographer, stop the lead singer of the Chicks to pose for a picture with me.
Well, the puppy paw caught my shirt and opened it up--thus causing me to flash the Dixie Chicks, their table and all the fans that were soon gathering. In the mad rush to cover myself---I knocked the previously mentioned beer on Natalie (lead singer). The first words out of my mouth was an offer to get her nice suede jacket dry cleaned. I was mortified. However--they did pose for a picture with me but never returned to quiz night. I am left with this story and a picture of her w/ beer spilled on her jacket.
