Weekend in Review

So this weekend was interesting to say the least.  We packed up all 3 kids (3, 1, 7 months) and drove 4 hours to Little Elm, TX (seriously...Texas has way to many cites and towns...usually with 100 residents...I'm just saying).  The ride was going to be smooth sailing.  I had the portable DVD player for the kids, movies with puppies (they love dogs), snacks, drinks and coloring books.  What could go wrong?!?  ALOT!!!!!

So here is how things went down.  My beautiful spawn of satan daughter decided she had to have some of my hot fries (yes...I was eating crap).  So she begged and "please mama" me until I was annoyed.  So I let her have some.  My son who is 1 had some as well.  He didn't have a problem with his.  She kept saying hot...but kept eating.  Well apparently 3 year olds and hot fries are not a good combination.  Next thing you know we have a scene straight out of the Exorcist with projectile vomiting.  It was so not a good look, smell, or situation.  I was (and still am) traumatized.  She was whining (which annoys the hell out of me)...Charles almost lost his breakfast (the man has a weak stomach with it comes to vomit).  I was pissed, because we had to pull over.  LOL

So we pull over...I take my now panty clad child into Micky D's to clean her up.  I left Charles to clean out the car.  Do you know what this child says to me in the bathroom.?  "Ma, nuggets please."  I'm like heffa you just grossed me out and now your hungry.  If she was a little older I might have told her to kiss my ass.  I know...mother of the freaking year here. 

So she is clean...Charles is mad...and I'm upset that my truck now smells like vomit.  During this entire adventure.  My son is still in the backseat...doing what...eating more damn hot fries.  LOL  He was mad because I took them from him, because I didn't want a repeat.  Apparently the boy has a cast iron stomach like his mom.  I knew we were kindred spirits the first time I held that cutie in my arms.

So we finally arrive to Charles niece's house to celebrate her daughters 1 year birthday.  Yeah...the party is over by the time we get there.  LOL.  However, it was worth the ride, because Charles was able to spend some time with his niece and nephew.  I try really hard to get him to stay connected with his family.  He is not a social butterfly by any means. 

Oh...I have decided I will NEVER travel with my daughter again.  She is such a whiner.  It drives me crazy.  It makes me want to pinch the skin under her arm.  Something I promised I would never do to a child of mine.  The girl drives me batty.  Like I needed any damn help being crazy.

My son...decided to try and eat the entire hot breakfast buffet at the hotel.  That dude had 2 waffles shaped like Texas.  Yes, we let him eat the.  This dude only eats when he wants.  When he is in an eating mood we try to stuff him like the Christmas goose. 

On the Band frontier:
I didn't eat horribly this weekend.  I just didn't eat.  Which to me might be worse than eating crap.  I loose focus on the weekends with my eating...and I don't eat much.  I'm a work in progress.  My water intake was horrible this weekend as well...unless you count all the vitamin water I drank. 

I did some moving this weekend.  Not as much as I usually do...but some none the less. 

This morning I set my alarm to get up at 4:55 a.m. so that I could workout to a few DVDs I have.  Well I don't know what happened to my clock...but I'm pretty sure I threw it into the wall when it went off.  Sue me...I went to be at 12:30 a.m. I will try for an earlier bedtime tonight so that I can get up in the morning.
I will do that workout tonight and a little jump rope.

Catching up on all the blogs from the weekend.  I might not comment...but I'm reading.

LMAO @ hot fry incident. Been there. It's no fun. Still had to laugh. :)

I definitely know what you mean about the whiny thing. Nothing I hate worse. And mine FEED off each other's whiny-ness until I'm putting them both in their rooms and telling them not to come out until they can be happy boys again! :/

Sounds like you've been doing great with the moving, super proud of you!

Holy crap. Sorry, but i'm giggling...just a little tho....at your weekend. What a ride! I'm pretty sure if Ryan and I ever get around to having kids I definitely won't be 'giggling' at things like this, but for now, I think it's mighty hilarious.

On the eating part....at least you didn't eat crap all weekend and drink a bathtub of liquor. (That wasn't me or anything.)

ohhhh my heavens, that was sooo not funny - I'm lauging my derriere off here! I absolutely feel your pain!! It's taken me months to get that smell out of my car - and on a good, hot day, I believe I can still smell it!

Febreeze is a good thing!

Laughing too, but I've earned the right. I don't think there is a single person with kids who hasn't cleaned puke out of their car at some point in time or another.

You did good, girl...dealing with all of that and not diving into a bag of chips (with a vat of dip on the side). Sometimes just getting through it is a victory in itself!

Eeeewwwww! I don't do well with the vomit thing. Luckily, my hubby is better about it.

I get totally derailed on the weekends! My eating turns to crap, I don't work out...a mess. Definitely one of my bigger obstacles.

OMG. Just OMG. This is reason #462 of why I should really never be a parent.

I don't know if you wanted your post to be funny .,. because it wasn't but the way to told the story was very funny ! I'm one of those who is probably better off eating crap than eating nothing (damn fat holding on....). Hope you are having a better day ~

I had to laugh!! Kids in the car can and will test your very last nerve! Praise the lord my girls are older now so we don't have "issues!"

Nora said...

Puke in the car, eek! On another note, check out my blog in a few minutes. I am posting some butterfly pics that you might like:)

I lived that exorcist vomiting first hand with my friend's kid. It is not something I ever want to be around again, so I feel your pain! I like to tell her THAT is the reason I'm childless. Makes me giggle anyway. I hope your alarm clock survived and your are able to get to bed earlier.

kagead said...

Of course, I am laughing my ass off. In the way that only someone without children can do!!! I think you DO get the mother of the year award because I would have lost my mind the minute she puked. Cleaning her up and continuing the trip is ROCK STAR.

I could barely stand to read this - I can't imagine living it. Wow. You are a serious hero...just wow.

Andrea said...

LOL! Gross! Yeah traveling with kids is not so fun!
