Screaming
I would like to remove the vocal chords of the person who invented the scream!! What a horrible thing to start and share with others. It's like a nasty Bologna sandwich with mayo-yuck. So we finally made it to the library(the way COOL library that used to be someones mansion)Grant had wanted to go for a while but with Brig being sick and then Grant and Claire being sick we never could go. We were finally there. I came prepared or so I thought with a diaper and wipes. Brig had already had a stinker not long ago so I thought the only one that will maybe need a change will be Claire-wrong!! Both had horrific smells coming from their diapers. So armed with 1 diaper I changed Brig in the bathroom and headed out to the car to change Claire. I did and left her diaper under the tire to take home with us-it would be too cruel to throw it in the library's garbage can-yes it was that bad. So on our way back into the kids room I decided I would make a pit stop myself. I couldn't just leave Claire and Brig outside the bathroom(like I had left Grant in the kids room this whole time) so they came in with me. Here come the screams!! Oh what fun it is to SCREAM and LAUGH in a deathly quiet library bathroom that echos so well!! They thought it was funny and I was furious! I finished as fast as I could washed my hands and started drying them with the dryer(all the time telling them to both stop right now, while they just kept on screaming and laughing) While I was drying my hands a knock comes at the door!! (CRAP I think) it's a librarian and she is really mad because some obnoxious kids are in the bathroom just having a ball. I opened the door and much to my relief it was just 2 teenage girls. We went back to the kids room and all was well. Even before the bathroom though..we had just gotten there. The kids were playing with toys and I was looking for some books to check out. Brig got the great idea that he is going to wander over to the librarians desk and check out the stuff on top. He finds a little vase-full of water-why not-there were NO FLOWERS -just water waiting to be tipped!! Here we go-he tipped it all over the desk-which had books, papers, all sorts of junk, and a COMPUTER on it! I raced over with my handy dandy wet wipes and started mopping water as fast as I could. (note to self and anyother human that carries wet wipes around on a regular basis:they don't mop up water very well-duh!)I told Grant to RUN to the bathroom and get a ton of paper towels-he came back with a wad of toilet paper-which I later understood why-no paper towels just dryers for hands. I continued to mop and move stuff including the computer and everything else. Luckily we were the only ones in there at the time. Why can't kids just leave well-enough alone! While there a little girl-Brigs age came in with her mom? and two other "girls" none of them were that old. She kept trying to put a construction hat on Brig and he didn't want it so he kept saying "no,no,no" finally one of them slapped her and she said "stupid"! Way to go-what a word for your 1 year old to learn! And ya wonder why America is so messed! Poor kid she was really cute but has a long up hill road ahead of her.

Don't know how you do it. I would be a total wreck with three kids, we might have to stop at two.
Whewie!
Oh dear! Yeah. I would have made Claire sit in her stinky diaper, that way maybe she'd want to be pottie trained.
I hope you ran out of there like the bandits that you are, as they may lock the doors if they see you coming again!
Oh man!
Those bathroom screams are loud!
As dad would say, my ears are ringing!!!
Hey Beck Family,
Wow everyone looks so grown up. Time just seems to fly by. It's scary sometimes. You guys all look so happy. We miss you and look forward to keeping in touch now that we found you.

Audrey. I just have to say that it's nice to know that your children are normal...and aren't always doing everything pefectly. :) It makes the rest of us moms feel a little better. :) AHHH!!!!! What a day at the library!
Hahahah! Oh, man! What a trip to the library! How FUNNY! I laughed through the whole thing. Way to go, Auds! You are a super mom.... What little stinkers! Hehehe... Great post. And clever Grant to grab the toilet paper instead of paper towels... Sheesh. What fun.
We are excited to see you! And your little hooligans too!
You have a cute family. How old are your kids? I can't believe how fast time goes. Are you only in Ohio temporarily? I totaly understand the wild child thing. I can only imagine how much more insane it will be when we decide to add our third. YIKES! It's good to catch up (or sort of catch up).

What a great idea- someone should invent a way to stun kid's vocal chords to keep them quiet (momentarily of course!)
