Yesterday we took a road trip to Bayville, N.J. to say farewell to one of my dear friends brother which is 2hrs away from us and what an adventure it was. So I decided since I had to work before we headed out I would pack our bag from the night before (Wednesday), run the dishwasher so I would make bottles in the morning and set out what we would wear for the day.
Morning ran smoothly thank goodness, we kept to schedule for the most part, got some calls in then by the time we played and sang ABC's for the 50th time it was already 1' o clock. Omg then the mad rush begun.
We got lunch, and now lunch is not as simple as it used to be as I now offer them food from the family pot so its everywhere in their hair, nostrils, ears, where ever you think you could possibly find food trust me it's in there. I found a couple pieces of broccoli in Sani's diapers and a few rice grains in Maddi's go figure :)
The service started at 5:30 so I decided it would be best to leave at 3 so we had time to pull over if needs be or traffic etc. While we were getting dressed Sani was tired and needed to nap as they go down for their second nap at 3, so that was no fun as her new favorite thing to do is try to roll away as you are trying to change her, at the same time Maddi is having a itchy fit and is screaming at the top of his lungs while I try to itch his leg and hang on to Sani who is trying to leap/roll off the bed. Finally got them both dressed and in the car seat, with their paci's. Now time for me to get dressed, Crap it 's already 3pm...Jeezas we are going to be late!!
We were off by 3:20. My stupid GPS couldn't find the church instead of Morning star it kept on offering me the suggestion of Morris Ave... NO NO NO that is not where i'm going, so I tried for the phone GPS ok that works. Hour into the ride my phone shuts down crap where do I go I remember skimming the directions and seeing something South do I go 1 South or do I keep going down the PKWY I don't know I pulled over while I wait for the phone to power up, back on our merry way the babies are up I had to pull over, climb to the back fed and sang and then off again.
Finally got off the exit and yup phone crashed again, another time to pull over, now the kids are really not happy about this stop and go trip they start wailing, its now 5:20 there is no way I can go back there as I know they are not hungry so I would have t go back there and take them out to play, we were really not far about 10 mins away so I turned up our music and rocked out to the Itsy Bitsy Spider, and Polly put the Kettle on and we were finally there.
It was worth it, I had to be there for my friend there was so much love and support for them. You could tell that he was a remarkable individual, God bless you all and R.I.P.
Check in tomorrow
