Reganism

I am not sure why we bought them beds. EVERY.SINGLE.NIGHT we pick them off their rug and tuck them back in bed.
I was getting Regan in pajamas after bath, and getting his meds on his skin. Normal stuff. Uncle Josh was across the hall in his room with the door open. Regan grabbed his socks and said, “Mom look my socketines!” Josh and I just about died laughing at how cute his Spanglish is. It is so funny how he mixes languages into his own unique word.
He has been calling calcetínes/socks “socketines” ever since. It cracks us up every time.

Sleepover 7.17

Leave a reply

 We watched a Scooby-Do movie.

 I like to teach them young to be photoholics….. “Aunt Janice, Say CHEESE!”

Regan didn’t want to sleep in all that chaos. He cried for his bed. So it was just the five of them in the fort.

Rebekah: Is this how it’s going to be every sleepover?

Me: Ya. Probably.

Rebekah: I could get used to this. (Big smile on her face.)

We did some crafts the next morning, but I didn’t get any photos…. Lame. Huh?

hijacking a porter potty

Monday we took the children to the Zoo.
This visit the stroller was more for carting our supplies than children.
We did it all this visit. I especially enjoyed the reptile house.
So did Regan. Kid was fascinated.
The children oohed and ahhed at the condors. Those guys are massive.
Picnic lunch. Before ridding the zoo “train.”
On the train I had this nice couple take a few pictures of our first zoo train ride.
My camera scared them. 🙂
But it’s o.k. Any picture is better than no picture. Right?
Off to Sting Ray Bay.
Kaylee is doing amazing these last few weeks overcoming her fear of all living things.
She willingly and happily stuck her hand in the water to pet the sting rays. One even splashed us. Scared me, but Kaylee just laughed.
Regan got a bit wet in some unfortunate places at the bay. Ended up looking like some MAJOR pit sweat was happening.
To the carrousel. As you can see Regan was not pleased AT ALL to be on the carrousel. 
It was such a super SHORT ride. The kids were all bummed out about how fast it went.
 
This is how Regan made it through the ride. He was the only one happy to get off the thing.
“Hey Cassie look at me for a picture.”
HAHAHA! She did have fun. Promise.
Then we hit up one of the splash pads to cool off.
They all had snacks for the drive home. They all had fun, and were worn out. And they needed to pee half way home. Poor Cassie was in tears. And when one says they need to go all suddenly realize that they need to goo too. In our desperation to find her (Cassie) a toilet we stumbled upon a porter potty. Shannon asked if we should use it. I said I would and that desperate times called for desperate measures.
Behold the hijacked potty. Where Cassie refused to go (held it until she got home), but Kaylee, and Nathan happily went. When I got back to the car after taking Kaylee, Rebekah was telling me ALL about the construction workers that drove by, and asking if we were going to get into trouble.  I told her they wouldn’t get mad a tiny children with overfull bladders. 

Good times people. Good times. And thank Heaven for hand sanitizer!
