Wouldn't it be awful if Aunt Flo were visiting and she made a mess of your favorite pants while en route to your family vacation destination? And then you had to change your clothes in a nasty gas station bathroom? Of course, this didn't really happen... I'm just sayin'.
Wouldn't it be awful if your 3 year old son pooped his pants at your favorite theme park and you didn't have a change of underwear with you? And then you had to clean him up in the bathroom with muddy floors from all the park goers that have ridden The Water Ride of Death? And you had to throw away his brand new Spiderman underwear? And you had to put on one of his sister's size 4 diapers that didn't really fit because even though he's three he's the size of a 6 year old? Of course, this didn't really happen... I'm just sayin'.
Wouldn't it be awful if your 3 year old son pooped his pants again the next day at your favorite theme park and you didn't have a change of underwear with you? And then you had to clean him up in the bathroom with muddy floors from all the park goers that have ridden The Water Ride of Death? And wouldn't it be even more awful if when you took his shorts off you notice that the mess is ALL over his legs, shorts, socks, and shoes? And you had to throw away his OTHER brand new pair of Spiderman underwear along with his socks? And you had to clean out his shorts in the toilet because you've done cloth diapers before and you know that the toilet actually gets cleaned regularly and it's probably not gonna kill him to wear soaking wet shorts that have been cleaned out in the toilet? And then you have to try to clean off his shoes with diapers wipes and dig the poop out of the bottom tread? And then you try not to break into tears once you're reunited with your family and they are wondering what the heck happened to you? Of course, this didn't really happen... I'm just sayin'.

OOOOHHHHHHHHH MAN! That's AWFUL! I suppose we've all had to do stuff like that but not 2-3 days in a row. It's a glamorous life, eh?
I have to say that this would be a great short story for one of those MOM books.HaHa.... That is, if it had really happened!!HA!
Dead serious....I would have left the park. NO...I would have left my child in the bathroom.... of course only if it happend. hehehehe
The joys of motherhood! Keep smilin Steph and the world will wonder what you're up to (like we don't anyway????)!!!
ACK!!!!!

oh, I so know what this is like..just maybe not 2 days in a row, same scenario! gotta look to the past to plan for our future..he,he..i bet next time you go to an amusement park, you'll be so prepared and you'll be able to help someone else..he,he...of course only if this DID really all happen!
If this had really happened I would have felt sorry for you and encouraged you to put it on your blog...I'm just sayin'.
If this kind of stuff didn't really happen, then we wouldn't know the joys of being parents, thinking on our feet, being creative, spending unneccessary money at times to calm or do in general whatever it takes to fix those little occassions of what in the world just happened and I hope I never have to do that again!
But again we're just talking hypothetically--aren't we?!@#$% But sure makes for a good "blue vase" story.
PS. Been there done that ;)
What are you feedin that kid?
Leave Flo at home....
Steph... you should write a book about things that didn't really happen... but could!
Okay....these are awesome! And of course while it is "not happening" you are thinking "I can blog about this!" Right?
Thanks for the laugh!
Reminds me of when we were traveling to the beach in San Diego and Lillian got sick all over teh back seat of hte rental car. Pee-yew!
