TWO too MUCH

When it all gets to be TWO too MUCH
around our house...
we go for a walk.

The night before last there was TWO too MUCH crying,
TWO too MUCH hurting,
TWO too MUCH being awake.

Yesterday:
Jack was diagnosed with an ear infection,
I missed work {again},
but Logan was feeling fine.

Thankfully yesterday afternoon there was...
TWO too MUCH giggling,
TWO too MUCH playing,
and TWO too MUCH feeling better.

So we went on a walk.
It was TWO, too beautiful!

The train came by,
and the kids were TWO too EXCITED!

{Did I mention TWO, too excited kids?}

We had a really great time,
despite the fact that none of us slept
AT ALL
the night before.

But I did mention in the beginning that we walk when it's all just
TWO too MUCH...
Right?
I did remember to mention that?!?
Cause that's the most important thing to remember.
That's the whole reason for this post.
{Well, that and the adorable kids}

Because the kids were TWO too MUCH.
I was exhausted,
they wanted to run around...
Getting them in the car was like running a marathon.

So... once I got them in the car
WE LEFT.


Only... I hadn't {exactly} finished loading the car.


Yep.

Oh no.

YES.

I LEFT MY DOUBLE STROLLER ON THE SIDEWALK.
Where you see it located in the last picture
is where it stayed.
ALL NIGHT.
ALL MORNING.

Until I went to Costco this morning, and opened the trunk to put my box of 500 diapers in the back and saw:
NOTHING.

That feeling in the pit of my stomach when I remembered our walk, TWO too fussy kids, a TWO tired Mommy...

And NO stroller in the car.

It's lost & gone forever.

  5. Blake and I SAW IT! Sooo crazy. We went on a walk with Ferris on the waterfront yesterday at 4 - beautiful by the way. On our way back Blake said, "Hey Rox want a free stroller?" I said, "Oh that looks like Shelly's."
    Little did we know you LEFT IT THERE! I wish I would've known!
    So sorry!!
    Well, we have a Combi stroller that we love- they make doubles... ;)

  6. WOW!!! I'm so sorry to hear this! First you had the crib recall, now this. It will take awhile, but I'm sure someday you will have a good laugh about it.

  8. I am sorry Shelly. I thought that we could give you our stroller. We never use our stroller.

    DUH you have two, not one. That's not helpful!! :D How silly of me. I hope you'll find a double stroller for a good deal. Good luck Shelly. *hugs*

  9. I just happened upon your blog and saw this story. If it makes you feel better, I only have one child and I backed over my folded stroller because my son was crying and I forgot to go back around and put the stroller in. Sometimes our mommy brains just can't process everything! Glad you got a new one:)
