Last weekend, we took the kids to Cornbelly’s Pumpkin Patch. We started the day off right by completely forgetting to bring diapers for Kaden. Well, we cloth diaper now and they don’t exactly hold 8 hours of urine like a disposable does! We had planned to stop at the store and by a small pack of disposables on our way out of town, but we totally spaced it. Luckily, when we got there, he was still dry so we decided to just go with it.
First thing we did when we got there was get some oh so yummy fair style food! Kaden was in food heaven when we presented him with a giant piece of roasted corn on the cob, a hand dipped corn dog, and an orange pop (Three of his most favorite things).
I was super worried about our little diaper situation….especially after I let him drink all that orange soda! But, we went along with our day and soon forgot about it (for awhile at least). The kids had a blast playing on slides built off of hay bales and bouncy houses. They got to make their own snow cones and eat kettle corn. They even went inside a giant blow up lizard. Olivia said it was really scary and that it growled at her the whole time. She then proceeded to tell me that she was wanted to go into the haunted house. I told her that if she could handle a growling monster, she could not handle scary dead people jumping out at her. Her response: “Oh, I can handle dead people Mom. I can definitely handle that.” I love that girl!
The whole trip, Olivia was so excited to go on the mechanical bull. Honestly, I doubted that once she saw it, she would even go on it. Well, she surprised us all! That girl got on that thing twice and didn’t have one worry in the world about it!!
It really was a super fun trip looking back on it. At the time, I felt really stressed out with all three kids and both of us were definitely ready to go home after just a couple hours, but it was a great first “big day out” with all of the kids. Kaden made it to the car and of course, soaked through his diaper. I ended up taking out the inserts and stuffing his diaper with a couple of Charlee’s diapers. It held him over until we got home.
I am a couple days behind and we had a pretty big event occur today, but I am ready for bed ( I only have a few hours before Charlee wakes up), so I will write a new post tomorrow.
Love you all!
