One of those "Mommy Moments"

So I wasn't going to post this but I just looked over some old blog posts from a few years ago and loved reading about the funny things... so I think this one is a worth while mom memory!

If you don't like poop stories don't finish reading this.

Mark had a Volleyball tournament this weekend... so I packed the kids up with some toys, DS, food, and drawing stuff so they could last the evening. We made our camp in the bleachers and I noticed that I left the camera in the car... I told the kids to stay put while I went to get the camera... I got back 5 minutes later. In those 5 minutes DISASTER happened!!! I get back to the bleachers to see all my kids missing... then I see Iree and Jacob running toward me yelling "Mace went Poo in the bathroom" Everyone in the bleachers turn their heads and laughed a little. I wasn't too worried... he still has me wipe so I thought that was all I had to do... Jacob then goes on to say, "He has it all over his hands!!!" at this point I am getting worried...I start running toward the MEN'S restroom, because that's where Jacob took him.

As I got to the door I could hear him crying and one of the volleyball players was in there saying, "It's okay... your mom is coming." I poked my head in and asked the guy if it was okay to come in... he said he would stand guard... Mace was standing with his pants down and poop in them... plus all over his hands and toilet seat. This never happens to him... he never has accidents so I couldn't put together what happened... I asked him, "what happened buddy"...he replied, "I just can't to anything right." talk about break my heart! Jacob came in and explained that Mace told him he had to go...they went to the MEN'S restroom and Mace went in and locked his door...It happened to be a tall toilet and he couldn't get up... He told Jacob to help him but he couldn't unlock the door and then he couldn't hold it any longer... then he tried to clean it up but as any 4 year old would do... he made a huge mess.

We were an hour from home... no extra clothes... and hours or watching volleyball still to go. I cleaned him up... threw his pants, underwear, and socks in the trash (Mace thought that was hilarious) and tied Jacob's sweatshirt around him. We went back up to our spot in the bleachers... The kids wanted to go play in the boxing room but I wasn't about to let Mace run around in a sweatshirt skirt that would fall off at any moment. When Mark was done with his first game I raided his bag in hopes of finding something that would work for Mace... He had extra undies!!!

So Mace ran around in Mark's undies for the rest of the night... I tied them tight with my hair tie and walla... instant shorts...

While these things are happening it is not so fun... but I love looking back and laughing at all the mommy moments we have...

I love being a mom!!!!
