We went apple-picking “with” Dylan’s preschool last Saturday. Unfortunately, we missed everyone because we got out of the house late!
It wasn’t just because we let the kids sleep in and then have a leisurely breakfast, Cameron dropped some poop on the carpet while I was on my way to get her a new diaper (thinking she could air-dry a little!).
Tom: Does someone have gas or something?
Me:Yep, I think so (I start to hustle for that diaper thinking gas is a harbinger of more solid things to come)…
Tom: Uh, noooo. Cameron just took a crap on the rug!
Yuck is right! While Tom cleaned up the rug, I took Cameron and gave her a quick, emergency bath! And, it was this final last-minute event that pushed us too late into the day!
Luckily, Cathy (the preschool owner/director) was still there and she hung out with us for a bit while the kids played on the tractor and hay bales.
Doesn’t she just look like a pensive and quiet little lass?
Hey, folks! Where are the apples??
We were experiencing record high temps — that day was in the high 90s! — so we took the stroller, but wouldn’t you know? The kids just wanted to run around and kick up some dust!
Dylan did carry our bucket for us…at least for a little while!
And Cameron was signing (“apple”), sampling and babbling!
Both kids totally sacked out on our way home
