Red Faced at the Zoo, But Not From the Heat!!!
Over the weekend we took a short road trip with the kiddos and some great friends to the Memphis Zoo. The weather was a bit overcast, so the skies were cloudy a big part of the day and thankfully there was a slight breeze during most of the day. The Memphis Zoo is very enjoyable and our family loves to visit. Each child has their own "favorite" animal. We discovered during our last trip to the circus that little Emily has a love for elephants. When we got to the elephants, one was washing himself by filling his trunk and spraying himself. He would also slap the water with his trunk to get himself wet. This was very comical to Emily. She declared, "Mommy, I just want to stay here and watch the elephants all day." It was the sweetest thing. Of course Shelby loves Zebras and Tyler likes Monkeys. I think he has a close relation to them. ;)
The highlight of the day, however took place on the playground as we were wrapping up the afternoon. The kiddos were all playing and one of the older children came to me and said that I needed to go check on Emily. When I arrived at the top of the playground equipment I found Emily sitting down with her pants and panties around her ankles!! The child needed to potty, so she just dropped her drawers and sat down and peed on the very top of the jungle gym between the slides. Needless to say, I was slightly red faced when we left...and not from the heat!

Oh poor mama! These silly littles...they sure know how to embarrass us!
When a gals gotta go a gals gotta go! LOL
I laughed out loud about Tyler being close relation to monkeys.
As for Emily. At least she didn't wet her pants. Bwahahahahahahaha. Bless her heart.
Have a terrific day. :)
Holly, Emily seems to have it down to an art! LOL
Akelamalu,
LOL, indeed...she did!!!
Sandee,
Tyler used to be the one that caused embarrassment, but I guess since he's old enough to be embarrassed himself, he's not as bad these days...but that Emily, she sure is a mess!!! You're right, she did not wet her pants, just the tops of a few kid's heads! LOL
Would hate to be the one at the bottom of the slide.

We still haven't made it over to the Seattle Zoo. Perhaps this fall.
We shall keep our drawers on and use the proper facilities when required. LOL!
I agree with Sandee that at least she didn't do it in her pants :)
