So Friday morning when I got home the dogs, kids and I packed up for a quick trip to Nana and Papa's house. My mom and dad are watching the dogs for us while we went on our road trip Sunday and Monday. I am know the girls appreciate the good food, couches, play time and space compared to being boarded at the vets. We made a quick Wal-mart trip before we left and little man potty there.
Fast forward 1 hour. The kids are watching a movie and riding nicely. I get out the snack bags that I made for them (graham crackers, raisins and mini marshmallows). All is well until Drew said his screen came unplugged. I turned to look and witnessed Jillian taking a marshmallow out of her mouth and sticking it on her face, then rubbing it along her face. She had it everywhere on her face, neck and in her hair. We stopped at the rest stop, I gave her a quick clean up and plugged the boy back in.
Not long after our first stop Drew informs me that he has to got to the bathroom. Of course we had just pasted Concordia and there is no where to stop for a little while. 5 minutes pass and his request is more urgent. 10 minutes pass and he is panicky and then calm.... Yes he peed his pants and I had him in big boy underwear. We stopped at the next gas station and I took him in to change him and when I took Jilli out she had soaked through too. I decided that the next time they don't get their prebreakfast cup of juice. So I have to take both of them into this nasty bathroom and change both of them. Luckily there was extra pants. Jilli wore one of Drew's pull up because there was no place to lay her down and it was just easier to have her step in. She gave me a funny look at I was putting her in them. I was about to be at my limit, but we made it there safe and Nana and Papa relieved me of my duties when I walked in the door.
I had fell asleep on the couch and mom woke me up because she knew I would want pictures of Drew in Papa's Bobcat. I got out there just as they were finishing up. Drew saw a bobcat picking up concrete the day before at the gas station and I told him that Papa had one, I don't know if Papa could get any cooler.
Papa let Drew move the bucket up and down and below is when Drew is sprinting to tell me what he got to do. He was so excited.
Drew and Papa going to feed the geese, get the mail and pick up the trash can. Papa and Drew would yell "Yahooooo" while riding gator, because that is what cowboys say when they are happy.
The kiddos with Papa and Nana Saturday morning before we left.
So now it is Wednesday morning and I am missing my puppies. I know they annoy me sometimes, but life isn't the same without them.
