I should have brought an extra pair of pants.

Poor Clara. We went to a birthday party at the children's museum and Clara was having so much fun playing that she forgot to tell me in time that she had to go pee. By the time she ran to tell me, all of a sudden it came pouring out all over her pants. She was so upset. I brought her in to the bathroom and took off her pants and forced her to put on Reid's jacket upside down. She was so embarrassed to be wearing such a thing that she screamed and made me hold her in a corner where no one could see her. I got her to get down for a second and that is when I hurried a snapped this photo. Immediately after this photo she ran back to me crying. I felt so bad for her. I thought to go buy her some pants in the mall, but I worried that by the time I got her back the party would be over. She kept saying I should have brought extra pants. And I really should have. Reid had a lot of fun though and so did Clara until the accident:(

Laughing out loud over here. Poor Clara though. Sorry the party ended up being a bust for you guys.
I thought the sweatshirt contraption was a stroke of genius.
Sam hearts his money jar, by the way.

Ah man- that's so sad. We've had that happen before. You were so clever to use the coat!

Nabby, your kids are so darn cute and you have the best stories to tell.

Poor Clara. She's not alone though. I did the same thing when I was her age.
