August 30

I tried really hard this particular day to do lots of fun things with the kids.  Guess what?  It's like they all backfired on me.

We went to the orchard- Ben and Lucy kept eating the rotten apples on the ground.  I even handed them good apples as I got them out of the van, hoping that'd deter them from eating the ones on the ground.  We only stayed a few minutes because they kept eating the bad ones.  I got both the girls back in the van and noticed Ben hiding under a tree- he was pooping, so I had to change him before we left.

 Insert: Bens story about toe poop.  This should have told me I was in for a poopy night.

 A few too many rotten apples and a cider slushy.  After dinner she needed a bath, so I put her in the bathtub, ran downstairs grabbed Ben.  I noticed a smell when I got to the tub.  Lucy had pooped IN. THE. DRAIN.  She CLOGGED the drain.  It was so clogged the plunger wouldn't work on it.  Ben was trying to get in the tub, but was getting mad at me because I wouldn't let him in.  Lucy was trying to get herself to the drain to investigate.  Luckily, I got the clog removed.  YUCK!

 After Ben's diaper at the orchard, toe poop and a clogged drain of poop, Josey here decided that filling 5 diapers with poop would be a great end to my day.  Thanks kids for a crazy, hectic, frustrating, stressful, NORMAL day.

My sister sleeps JUST like this.  On her stomach with her butt in the air.  I had to laugh when I saw Josey do this.
