The Good, The Bad & The Ugly

THE GOOD - Doug finished his check ride today and will be arriving at SeaTac Airport around 5:30 pm tomorrow!

THE BAD - This last week has been so hard. I'm pretty sure Audrey entered her terrible 3's. It's either that or she is having a tough time being separated from Doug again. Either way she's been worse than normal. Everything is met with opposition. I just hope things settle down once Doug gets back because I'm not sure how much more I can take.

THE UGLY - Yesterday after Jacob's Homeschool PE class I took the kids grocery shopping. We had been out of juice for two days and Audrey was hounding me about it. When we walked into the grocery store I thought I smelled something (like a poopy pull-up), I decided to ignore it since I left her pull-ups and wipes in the car. As soon as Jacob got into the car part of the grocery cart with Audrey he made a comment about how she smelled. I decided at that point it would need to be a short shopping trip, but about 1/4 of the way into getting the stuff I needed she decided she wanted to get out. Well, I quickly saw that the shopping trip needed to end abruptly. When she stepped out of the car she had poop going up her back. The only problem was that I didn't have the juice yet. Hmmm, what should I do? Stay the course or bail out. As any good mom searches for the right answer by waying the pros and cons, I decided to stay the course, get the juice (and few other things on the way) and pray that no one sees what I just saw. I did my best to reminder Audrey not to lift her arms, but that didn't worked so well. She was bending over, raising her arms and she even fell a couple times. It was impossible to get her to understand why all of these things were bad. We finally made it out of the store and life went on until the next day when I picked Ethan up from Cubbies at AWANA. I smelled an odor in the air as he ran over to me. It didn't take me long to realize the smell was coming from him. Only it was worse this time because he was wearing underware, but it wasn't just any underware it was his WALL-E underware. I had to order them through E-Bay because they don't sell them in the store, so there was no way I was going to throw them away as I normally would. Ugh! Will this ever end?

  1. Oh LOL! That is funny. I remember one day when I was breast feeding - I leaked on myself, Got peed on by a little boy who shall remain nameless, got pooped on by an exploded diaper, and got thrown up on by the same nameless boy. I know the feeling!
