Happy Birthday Kirsten!!

Kirsten has been staying with us since January because she is doing some work at the hospital and Anne Carlsen School. She has been the easiest person to have around and the kids love her! One the weekend when she goes back home Cole will stand at the top of the stairs and yell "Kirsty!" They are really going to miss her when she is gone. Last week she turned 21 - woo hoo. I will say she was very responsible and came home at 10pm - Brian and I were impressed. Thursday we were finally able to take her out for her birthday and it was a nice time. We don't take the kids out much just because it gets late and when they are hungry and tired things tend not to go so well - but that night they did great; they sat well while we waited for our food and ate most of the food when it came. Afterwards the waitress asked if we wanted dessert and told us that Annabelle gets a free one with her kids meal so we ordered her a sundae - who can turn down a free dessert. She ate all the whip cream from the top and then was done. It is a good think we brought the clean up crew aka Cole with because he was able to take care of the leftovers. While Cole was finishing her ice cream Annabelle was sitting on my lap and starting to get restless. We were thinking, here we go we are going to loose them. Pretty soon Annabelle starts farting and a few minutes later I could smell something. I take a look at Annabelle and sure enough she had a full pull-up and it was at the point that we just needed to go home and not try to deal with it there. We started trying to get jackets on and find the waitress to pay our bill. I was shoving napkins in Annabelle's pants trying to keep everything contained and she was not enjoying it at all. Every time I would put a napkin on the back of her pull up she would pull it out and it was just a mess. I left Applebee’s with a pocket full of dirty napkins because I didn't think that would be a nice thing for the bus boys to find. Annabelle walked out with Kirsten and I warned her that she probably shouldn't pick her up. By the time we got home Annabelle had poop everywhere - her hands, up her back, all over her car seat. It was time for a bath. We got into the bathroom to start cleaning up the mess and she had it all the way up to her shoulders! I told Kristen we have never had a diaper that bad in 2 1/2 years! We got everyone cleaned up, clothes in the washer and the rest of the night was peaceful and uneventful.
