Kiddos!

Saturday, May 3, 2008

Well yesterday I went to the zoo for Colton's field trip. It was so much fun! At the very last minute, Seth decided he was able to go! He works so much that it is hardly ever an option. Over all the first part of the zoo trip was over crowded. There were so many schools there. After lunch, all the schools went home and we actually had a good time. We got to see the lions stalk a bird, pounce on it, and swallow it whole! That was very entertaining! After the zoo, we did a little shopping. I found some great clearance items for the kids. We then went to pick up the little princess from daycare. We bought her a hat at the zoo. I took it into her and she thought she was the coolest. We came home briefly to change clothes. The Dallas Stars played last night, and lost they! We do not have cable, so we grabbed some dinner and went to Seth's parent's house to watch the game.

Tanner is potty training and it was our first true lengthy outing in panties. She has not had an accident in days so I was feeling brave. She announced in the middle of dinner "I potty!" I scooped her up and headed to the bathroom. I had this great fear that she would just let go on the way and pee everywhere. We made it to the stall and I sat her on the potty. It was one of those self flushing toilets. Tanner is so small that when she moved a little, the toilet flushed. She about jumped over the stall door with fright! At that point I tried to get her to sit down and go and she was not having it! As I was using the restroom, she noticed someone else in the stall next door. She was baffled that she could see feet. She kept saying, "feet mommy, feet mommy". I don't think she realized that there were more than feet next to us.

We went back to the table and started eating dinner when the dreadful "I potty!" came again! This time Tanner did pee everywhere. I was discretely trying to clean her up in the booth. She just keep screaming, "I potty, need diaper, I potty, need diaper, yucky!" At that point we cut dinner short and headed for the truck! I was changing Tanner in the back of the Tahoe when the motorcycle parked behind us started. It scared the living daylights out of me! I threw Tanner forward and almost jumped in the truck with her. Seth laughed so hard, he almost peed himself! What a life and a day in the Sorenson household!!
