We had kind of a rough day. It started out with the kids throwing a bunch of beanbags into the toilet. The toilet was filled with pee. Yummy! Luckily, I caught them before anything got flushed down, but I knew that our day was going to be super fun!!!
Then I drove with all of the boys to check out a pool that I was thinking about joining. We all got out and went in to meet with Sally, the membership person. Unfortunately, Sally doesn't work there. I got mixed up and wrote down the wrong place. We drove to the wrong place and I had no idea where I was supposed to go. We missed our appointment by a long shot! Of course I left the correct paper at home, so we may not be joining that pool after all!
We also went grocery shopping this morning. Wyatt was OBSESSED with the lottery machine at the front of the store and harassed everybody that came in to buy lotto tickets. He wanted them to buy him tickets or let him hold their tickets or see if they won any money. He did not believe that he couldn't get tickets by putting money in just like a gumball machine, so finally I took him up to the customer service counter and made him ask the people there how old a person has to be to buy lotto tickets. When they told him 18 years old, he finally gave up his mission to win the Pennsylvania State Lottery!
At the grocery store they were giving out samples of Doritos. I let the kids each get a little cup while we were walking around the store and they were all happy. Then I happened to look down at Shane in his stroller and he was chewing on something. I screamed at the kids "did you give him any Doritos?". Wyatt said that he gave Shane a "little piece" and I freaked out (the poor sample lady almost croaked). So, I frantically pulled everything out of his mouth and got it all out while screaming "Oh My God....Please don't have swallowed this" over and over! There were a few tense moments while I reviewed my epi pen instructions, but there must not have been any milk proteins in the chips because he didn't have a reaction. That was fun!
Later in the grocery store I had an old man come up to me, look at all of the boys, and jokingly say "What do you do with all of your spare time?". I said "sleep"! But I really wanted to say "drink...especially after today"!
We went to Chick Fil A for lunch. It was supposed to be our breakfast out this morning, but I was too mad after the beanbags so I told the kids that we were not going out for breakfast. Lunch went well. The kids love eating out at restaurants and I love not having to clean up after them! It was a nice ending to an otherwise tough morning.
Tomorrow is a school day. I figured out what pool we need to visit. We are not going grocery shopping. And we are eating lunch at home. So I expect to have an very uneventful morning tomorrow.....as if that could ever happen!
