One Saturday in January, when we were packing to move, we took a break and packed a lunch and went to the park. I had tried to go to this park the day before to meet some friends... I wasn't going to go because I was busy packing, I was tired, blah, blah. At the last minute when picking up Parker from his make-up day of preschool, I decided to just go. We all needed the break. I parked in the driveway and hurried and packed lunches and what not. We drove there, which took at least 20 minutes because the main road (Rayford) was crowded. Got there. Parked. Started gathering things. And then realized I had left Addie's bottle and formula (all prepared) on the counter at home. I saw the friends I was meeting, called one of them and asked if anyone happened to have an extra bottle and formula. Nope, of course. So, I said goodbye on the phone from my car. Staucie started bawling. I was so mad at myself. As I began driving home, I just bawled and bawled. It is hard to get out of the house with my 4 kids (4 years and under).
I told the kids we would go back the next day, Saturday, with Daddy. So we did. It was a perfect day.
Yep, me being a bad mom and giving Addie a plastic bag to play with. I give her fruit snack wrappers and other such garbage too. She hardly ever puts anything in her mouth, which is so weird for a baby, but nice too.
The kids were spinning on the swings.
Stopping in for a quick bite before running off again. Staucie was so quick that she was gone before Daniel pushed the button.
Bensen does a lot of people watching. He gets nervous around new people.
Poking sticks into the sand.
Hmmm, looks like more garbage for Addie.
