The LaGarde Family

do a time out in the bathroom won’t be doing that again!

I decided Finger painting would be fun so I whipped out a plastic table cloth and covered the floor put the boys in old shirts (gray took his off) and trapped them in their seats… we had fun for 5-10 minutes and then Grayson ate the paint… he gagged and cried so as I decided we were done I was cleaning Gray off and I look over and Logan’s mouth is green and he is gagging and then don’t you know he throws up… Haha needless to say that was the end of our finger painting silly boys of mine don’t know how to do art projects with out putting stuff in their mouths

On October 22nd I got the grand idea that a zoo trip with my friend Melissa would be tons of fun, since we have a zoo pass and can get friends in free, I thought we should take advantage of the super  nice weather we were having…

Looking back now, its started off bad, so maybe we should have called the whole thing off, but we didn’t… I was almost an hour late due to the boys being bad, as I was walking out the door Grayson decided to poop so I had to change him, I lost our cat and had to hunt her down, oh the list goes on and on… I met Melissa at the King Of Prussia Mall and it took us a while to figure out where the other one was ha ha… Poor Melissa while putting everything in my car drops her really nice camera and breaks it… so despite all that off we go to have a fun day at the zoo… we get to the zoo and we park in the parking lot where there is a 2nd entrance only to be told we can only exit there we have to walk a mile to the main entrance to get in… we huff and puff to the main entrance and get in and then proceed… we were there for probably 30 minutes to an hour before we get to the monkey house, where Logan steps in a big pile of brown mud… It looked gooey and gross so I decided to not trek it in the monkey house and clean it off outside… glad I did cause after a few seconds the smell hit me… it wasn’t a pile of  mud, no no it was a huge pile of poop… aka crap!!! I gagged my way threw cleaning him up as best as I could, it was all over his shoes, socks, pants and leg, I didn’t carry an extra pair of pants, socks or shoes, seriously who does when their child has been potty trained for almost a year now… Oh my goodness it was so bad I am still gagging!!! ick!!! So we proceeded and actually eventually had an ok time… but we only lasted 3 hours tops and it felt like it was days… So you’d think that would be the end of our terrible horrible no good very bad day… but no no, we finally had enough torture and we go to exit where we were told we could exit at the 2nd entrance right by our car, and there is no opening to get a stroller out… yup its only one of those turning gates!!! AHHHH we wanted out so badly that we totally unpacked our strollers, folded them up pushed the kids and the strollers threw and guess what??? I forgot my purse and our food bag and my very expensive camera… luckily (the only bright side to our day) there were some nice people who handed it threw to us and we were FREE… we pretty much ran for the car, we were so done Good thing Melissa still loves me and she got a nice new camera from her awesome hubby… I gotta say next time its that difficult to get to the zoo I’m calling it off way before Logan or Grayson step in Poo!!!

we did have some fun so here are a few pictures of our fun times
