fun at Walmart

Everyone has told me I needed to start a blog about Ella Kate. Well almost three years have gone by and I am now starting one.

Today, Ella woke up at 5:40 am. FIVE FOURTY AM!!! Are you kidding me!!!! We get up and sleepily start the day. Here is what had happened by 9:30am:

Ella Kate, my dad and I go take Geoffs car to Walmart to get new tires. While we were waiting to pick out tires, I put Ella on the counter to "get out of the way". All of the sudden there was a big crash and down came a plastic jug of fuel additive. All over my foot, all over the floor. Well of course, since it was a non organic fluid, they have to clean up from environmental standards.

While we were waiting for "wet clean up in automotive" the machanics came out and told me they could not find the key to unlock the lug nuts on this stupid foreign car my DH has.

In the mean time, my father and machanic are furiously looking for it. Paged geoff three times and finally got him. Now I have the key. "I need to go potty", I hear from a very teeny tiny and yet, sweet voice. "ok Ella".

Walmart apparently has very touchy automatic flusher on the potty. Ella was doing her biz and the potty flushed. I have never in my life seen a child jump as high as she did. Off the toilet she came STILL peeing mind you. Scared to death, Ella climbed back up on the potty to finish her stuff, only for it to flush AGAIN. Not once, but twice did she jump off while peeing.

I wish I could say that was the only thing that happened today, but it was not. Enough though to start a blog!!!
