Oh...I Went To California...


SO, my sister and brother in law decided to go on a weekend cruise over Valentines day. Hence why I was flown out to watch Kyra and Austin. We had quite the fun weekend that also came along with some very interesting moments...most of which, happened on Sunday.

I woke up Sunday morning to two screaming kids running into my room. "Allison! Allison! There's a flood!!!" Now, Lisa and Bob had just had a flood in the downstairs of their house, which ended up with them getting all new floors downstairs. So I ran into the master bathroom where there was poop, pee, toiletpaper and water overflowing out of the toilet area and into the master bathroom area. Wonderful. The kids were instructed to go play Wii while I used about 15 towels to soak up the mess and stopped the toilet. Needless to say, we missed 9am church!

After everything was taken care of with the toilet, I decided to feed the turtles. I picked up the water container and walked to the bathroom to fill it up and came back to find that there had been turtle poop on the bottom of the container that had dropped onto the ground. Second poop clean up for the day.

After I had cleaned up the turtle poop, I realized that I had forgotten to clean out the cat's litter box on Saturday. Poop clean up number three.

We decided to make and decorate sugar cookies that evening. While doing so, Austin had to go potty, so he ran upstairs. Soon, he was yelling for me to come help. He's old enough to take care of that himself (even though he asks for help everytime and is rejected everytime). However, when he came downstairs, he told me that he had accidentally gotten poop on his pants. We went back upstairs and cleaned up that mess. Last poop clean up for the day.

By the end of the day, I had cleaned up poop for each living thing in the house except for the fish.

Who knew fish could be so proper with their waste?

LOL- that is hilarious! What a good aunt-- isn't it funny how if you watch kids long enough there is always some poop or pee incident that is sure to follow!

I'm so glad you got to go to CA, BPFF. I remember pics of these kiddos on your computer. I miss them.

Remember when we used to spend 1/3 of our lives together. Those were days never to be forgotten.
