Ahh CRAP! (literally!)

I thought I'd write this because it was pretty funny looking back after what had happened... (sorry no pictures but try to visualize it if you like)

**WARNING** For those who have weak stomach... don't read this...

Okay... I KNOW every moms always have a hilarious poo story to share and if you think that it will never happened to you... well YOU'RE WRONG! This is my 2nd WORST poo explosion experience in PUBLIC... yes, one with Ella and one with Coleman... when will it ever stop?

First off... lets rewind WAAAAY back when Ella was a little wee one... maybe just barely turned 2. I was at Target. Ella, of course, sat in the seat of the shopping cart... as I was browsing around at the END of the store came to find out that Ella was making those "ew" face and I observed to see what was the matter was... to my horror... Ella had the WORST runny poo that literally flooded her seat and is dripping all over the floor. I panicked got the wipes out and cleaned her up and the cart as best I could... I hurried to the front and asked politely for a target bag so that I can dispose her soiled clothes. Well, this clueless young chap wanted to know why... I lost my patience with him and said, "Well, my daughter just crapped all over her pants and I need it to put her soiled clothes in it!!" I swear... I want to slap that kid. It was pretty bad. Luckily, I had an extra pair of clothes for her to change into.

Okay... now lets flash forward to our present time... Coleman who is now 2 years old. We are at Macey's grocery store. Right in the middle of shopping getting the food we need... Ella, who was in the cart basket and Coleman sat in the seat. Ella was doing the "potty dance" so I asked her if she needed to go now or will she be able to hold it... she had to go. So, on the way to the bathroom... I took Ella out and told her that I would wait for her outside of the bathroom so that I don't have to leave the groceries behind and taking Coleman out. While waiting for Ella, Coleman said something about "Go Potty" thinking he was asking about Ella... so I said "Yah Ella's in potty" Finally, Ella was done and I went on to finish my shopping... as I just barely got to the aisle I needed to go... Coleman pointed his finger that has "stuff" on it and I looked closely trying to figure out what the heck it was and where it came from... then I looked at Coleman tilting to the side with his leg making his "ew" face... I closed my eyes and pleaded that this is NOT happening... LOVELY! It did.. Coleman has RUNNY poo all the way down his leg. As I held his poo covered finger hoping that he had not smeared on anything... I opened up my bag and to my HORROR that there was NO WIPES!!!! AHHHH!!! I panicked. I panicked till I pulled myself together holding Coleman's poo covered finger and pushed the shopping cart and got to the baby aisle (thank goodness it was only 2 aisle down but still it seems like a long way to get there!) I grabbed the wipes and wiped Coleman's finger off and hurried back to the bathroom... I parked the cart outside of the hallway (yes they have a HALLWAY to get to the bathroom) and I knew I shouldn't carry Coleman because I'd get poo all over... well, I set Coleman down and as he walked to the bathroom... MORE poo clumps kept falling out of his shorts making a TRAIL to the bathroom... AHHH HORROR!!! As I got to the bathroom... the stall with the changing table in there was OCCUPIED!!! AHHHH! Oh heavens... Im sure my blood pressure went up to the roof with all the stress and literally freaked out. Thankfully I was able to hold it in without bawling or anything like any mother would do. So I hurried cleaned Coleman up and as I was walking out of the bathroom... I swear, a CROWD of people had to go to the bathroom and they were dodging away the poo trail that Coleman left behind... I put the kids back in the cart (of course I cleaned of the seat) and hurried wipe up the "trail" without anyone seeing. Ahhh. It was mortifying and I ended my shopping right then. (Of course I paid for the wipes.)

Yes... this is going to be one of the kid's embarrassing story to tell when they get older. :o) Can't wait.

Sleeping Beauty

As I was getting myself ready for bed... I always check up on the kids before I turn out the lights for the night... This is what I found... Gotta love her!

Ella getting ready to go say her part... (before she we moved to different spot for the rest of the program)

Ella's Part: "Learning has made us so incredible,
Our Teachers are so proud,
Our Folks thinks there is no one smarter,
Why! We stand out in a CROWD!!"
**bummer part about this is that is the only time we can see Ella from where we are sitting... she sat in the far end by where the parents are sitting in the upper stage. Wish we would have known where she was sitting before the show starts. Oh well. **


Mrs. Noker giving Ella her diploma and a last HUG... She is the most AWESOME teacher there... She taught preschool for 16 years!!

I'm really impressed with Ella's teacher and the preschool program... Ella has LEARNED so much that its amazing to see how much she has learned. I can't wait to put Coleman in!!! KINDERGARTEN here we COME!

Giddy up!

Well... LONG TIME NO BLOG! Sorry about that... I just wasn't in the blogging mood for a while. Hopefully this time it'll get better. Alright... In the last few days, I have tried to upload a bunch of pictures of Disneyland onto the slide show... with the retarded internet services I have, it will NOT complete it for me without freezing up and lose connection that claimed "NOT RUNNING"... Well I've decided to give it one more try... NO SUCH LUCK. All you're gonna see is 3 pictures of Disneyland... (I have more pictures than that but I'm too irritated to upload some more right now... if you like to see more, feel free to come by and I'd be thrilled to show them to ya!) by the way... thanks for holding your horses.

Disneyland was a BLAST!! We're glad to have the opportunity to go to have fun with our good friends and family... The drive down and back was a breeze. Although Ella did developed a fever most of our trip but took it like a champ and had a lot of fun. (came to find out that she had bad ear infection after we got home)
