Things never do go perfectly.
We left the house an hour later than we planned. When we stopped at the gas station, I realized that I forgot a binkie. Instead of going home (a whole 5 minutes away) we stopped at the walmart to buy one. Little did I know that would be the first of 3 walmart trips that day.
Everything was going good until we were ready to get off onto I-215. This is the moment when Brevin throws up in the car. So poor Bill is trying to make his way through traffic with a crying, puky baby, and a hysterical wife. I'm sure the drivers around us really appreciated the view they got of my butt as I was kneeling backwards in my seat trying to clean up puke with a kleenex.
The next 20 minutes were spent driving around looking for, yes, another walmart. It is a little known fact that a new t-shirt, wet wipes, and febreze make the perfect gift for a 1 year old.
We finally make it to the zoo. It was a little chilly and most of the animals did not want to come out and play and don't even get me started on "The Great Salad Fiasco"!
At least my boys had fun, and I can finally say I have taken them to the zoo.
Walmart stop #3 was to get a birthday cake for Brevin that he could destroy and no one would eat! Yay!
This is how Brevin started his trip.
This monkey looks like I felt after the throw up incident. Not to mention, my beautiful boy Trey, dropped my FULL 44 oz. Diet Dr. Pepper while we were in line to buy tickets. If you know me well, you know that that was the greatest tragedy of the day :)
Does he look like he is enjoying this at all?
This is how Brevin ended his trip to the zoo.

oh, too funny, not really, especially the drink part. But you'll have to let me in on the "salad fiasco", does it have to do with Bill's comment on "Salad is over-rated"?
You have got to love those puking in the car moments. Whenever I reach into the back with my butt sticking out towards the front Ryan finds that as prime groping time.
I am interested to hear the salad fiasco story....
All of our zoo trips seem to be like that… It must be something with that place! But it looks like it turned out to be a lot of fun.
You have the cutest boys EVER!!! Tyler said to tell Trey "hi", and Brev is so stinkin cute! I can't believe it has already been a year!
nothing beats a barf fest in the car... unless they get you down the front of your shirt.
and i will have a moment of silence for your drink. i would have started crying.
