The other weekend we decided we needed a family outing. We are clearly crazy :) It's just been so hot and we've been inside doing the baby thing, and we were dying for a change of scenery. We took the kiddos to the Magic House....on a Saturday....when it's hot out....and everyone and their brother would be there escaping the heat. But we had a gift card and the boys had cute Magic House tshirts, so we went anyway. Elliott was a rockstar and enjoyed his first visit there by hangin with mommy in the sling. He slept the entire time (he was favorite child of the day!) Xavier and Wesley had a blast for about an hour and a half. Then....oh then.....the meltdown began. I attribute it to a total sensory overload. The place was busy, and there is just soooo much for the boys to see and do. Wes melted down first, big time, and then X followed when we told him he couldn't play on the elevator and we were going to have to leave. We were THOSE PARENTS dragging their screaming children to the car. Good times I tell ya! When we got to the car I decided to feed Elliott before we got back on the road. Walter and I took that time as an opportunity to try and spot other crying children leaving in hopes that it would make us feel better. Ya know, like we're not the only ones who's kids go irate in public. We saw a few :) Despite the meltdowns I'm glad we went.
