Busiest Saturday Ever

We started at Music Together class, stopped for our weekly Dunkin Donut treat and then headed home for a nap.

Next stop Uncle Christopher's to celebrate his birthday. Emme had a blast visiting family, playing with the cat, eating yummy cake and dressing up in Aunt Keri's shoes!

Finally we headed home and rushed over to the high school to catch the school bus over to Reis Park for Somers Annual Fourth of July (early) celebration. We caught the last bus and hiked to the field so fast. As soon as the fireworks began they were really loud and Emme started to whine she had to use the bathroom. I pulled up our blanket and headed to the "dirty potty" (Port a Potty) It was pitch black and I had Jack in the Baby Bjorn. What a sight! Here I am trying to get her on the potty in the dark with a 17lb monster hanging from my front and my butt propping open the door only to find out there is no toilet paper. I can't close the door and leave her alone in the potty in the dark while I check the others for paper. My bag is caught on my back tangled with the bjorn straps so I can't get to my wipes and there are huge bangs of fireworks going off. We had an awesome view. SO I had to wait until someone came over and I had them get some tissue. Now I have to try to wipe her not let Jack or her touch anything, get her off and out without getting slammed by the door. What an ordeal. At least when it was all over and the wipes came out with the sanitizer Emme had calmed down and we repositioned our blanket closer to the exit and were able to enjoy the rest of the show.

SO SO SO annoyed that Paul was away this weekend for his pool tournament. He missed a lot of fun stuff and we missed him a ton. But I am glad we were able to go to all the events and enjoy them without too much hassling or meltdowns.
