Wilson's birthday was this past Sunday, but we did all of our extravagant celebrating on Saturday. We started by eating lunch at Fuddrucker's--Wilson's choice--because he had a coupon for a free kid's meal for his birthday! Maisy was so excited because she found us a table to sit at and it had Calvin and Hobbes comic strips covering it. Calvin and Hobbes are a family favorite. So lunch was a huge success.
Then we were off to the mall to catch a movie. We were a little early so we decided to walk around the mall and window shop until the movie started. We had to stop for a potty break of course. I took Maisy and Brett took the boys. Maisy and took our dear sweet time as ladies tend to do, but when we exited the ladies' restroom, we were surprised to be the first ones out. So we stood and waited for the boys. We waited and waited and waited. I could tell something was wrong. Finally, Brett came out with the boys and he was holding something neatly wrapped in paper towels.
"What is that?" I asked.
"So Ace didn't quite get all his business in the toliet. Some got in his underwear," he replied.
I sighed and said, "Let's just throw it away." Brett enthusiastically agreed.
"So you're saying he has no underwear on?"
Indeed it was true. Oh well. What were we to do? We continued on our way. However, I continued to smell poo.
"Brett, are you sure you cleaned him off really good? Am I crazy or do I still smell poo??"
So, I took him back to the bathroom, stripped him down, and wiped him real good with wet paper towels. He still smelled, so I dug around in my purse and found some fragrant Bath and Body Works lotion. Perfect. I then proceeded to rub his little bum and legs down with lotion. Now, there was nothing to worry about!
We then went to our movie which was Born To Be Wild in IMAX 3D. It's about an orphan baby elephant and orphan baby orangutan and the 2 different woman that raise them to go back into the wild. The kids had never been to IMAX or 3D and of course everyone loved it!
It was a very special and fantastic day! Happy Birthday, Wilson--we love you!
