For us, going out anywhere is definitely an adventure. Although, we did have an adventure that we will surely remember last week. On Thursday, Everett, Oliver and I went out to get a burger with some great friends of ours. Our night was going so well of course until we got our food.
I finally got Oliver calmed down and eating his Hotdog and Everett was being so good. Then, the announcement came. Oliver-"mommy, I have to poop!!" Yep, it was definitely announced. I'm sure the whole place knew that Oliver had to poop ;). AWESOME!
Oliver and I head off to the bathroom leaving Everett under the loving care of our dear friends. Next thing we know, we hear a knock on the door. I open it to peek out, and see my friends standing there with Everett and Kristen says "Everett might have just had a blow out." I laid him on the changing table to take a peek, WOW did he have a blow out! It was all down his leg. And of course this happened on the day that I had forgotten to bring a change of clothes. I didn't even have Jammies for him.
Well, long story short, we did have to strip him down. Poor little guy was cold. But, it was what we needed to do. The restaurant gave us a trash bag to keep the icky clothes in, and we wiped him down with baby wipes (he wasn't happy).
I do have to admit that Walmart was for sure my hero that night. There was a Walmart in that same parking lot, so we just ran over there and got him some new Jammies! Of course, Everett was wrapped in a blanket the whole time. The cutest thing ever, No one would have know my sweet little guy was naked in a diaper.
It's kinda funny looking back on nights like this, or the tantrums thrown by Mr. Oliver in the grocery store line, etc. during those times... Yes, I wanna pull my hair out. Yes, I wanna cry at times. And... Yes, It's hard. But all worth it. I wouldn't trade it for the world. These little munchkins have been such a blessing in my life, such an inspiration and such a joy! Life just keeps getting better.
Soon enough, I will find someone (a companion) to share these unforgettable moments with, and that will be even better.
I love my life, and all those in it.
