Wal-Mart Trip

This morning was a typical Monday of running errands, which included getting the oil changed in the van at Wal-Mart.  While we were waiting I let the boys go to the toy section of the store to look around.  After a little while I noticed Avery was doing the "cowboy" walk-he had done #2 & I was not prepared!  (Now that the boys are older I have grown more laid back on our outings and no longer carry with us diapers, wipes, extra clothing, etc.)  Fortunately I keep a few extra diapers & wipes in the van so I ran out and grabbed them while Eli looked over his little brother.  Of course we were in the back of the store and the restrooms were in the front so I had to carry Avery all the way through the store.  By the time we reached the bathrooms he had leaked through his diaper, pants, and onto my shirt!  We got cleaned up, wrapped Avery in his jacket, and I luckily had a t-shirt underneath that didn't get dirty so we headed out in search of clothing...I guess one good thing about this situation was where we were!  Now that I look back I can laugh about it, but at the time I was pretty frazzled.  Also thinking back, I'm really proud of how good the two boys were and how helpful Eli was during my "panic" mode.  I'm feeling very blessed to have such wonderful boys!!!
