Weekend Recap

in life •  7 years ago 

Our weekend went quick, but then again, that seems to be the norm. It had its highs and lows, so here is the recap.

On Friday night, my wife went to prepare for a Saturday event - a bridal shower for my youngest brother's fiancée. After work, I watched the kids from 6 until bedtime, which is only 8:30, but was an eventful 2.5 hours. Dinner went fine, and all was going pretty good until disaster struck. I had both kids in the bathtub and clean and was about to pull out 10 month old Kendra, when she pooped in the bathtub! Boo! Of course, she has never done that before, so I didn't even know where to begin. I took them to our other bathtub and showered them off to get clean, and then dealt with the bathtub mess when they were asleep. This was the low point of the weekend for sure! When my wife got home at 9:30, I mostly had things under control, but man, kids are soo much work sometimes!

On Saturday, my wife went to the bridal shower event, and was gone from 8:30am to 3pm, helping with setup and tear down. I had one of my other brothers and his two young boys over, so the cousins got to hang out for a while. Although the house was a big mess, we had fun and I ordered pizza for lunch to make things easy on ourselves. Here is one example of the mess, though I should have gone through the house to get more pictures:

We hung out and relaxed the rest of Saturday evening, and on Sunday we had some friends over to our house, who have 3 kids. After playing inside for a bit, the kids wanted to go outside, run around and get wet. So we did that the rest of the day, and grilled bratwursts and hot dogs for dinner and ate in the backyard.

All in all, a good weekend!

Hope all of my Steemit friends had a nice weekend as well!

This is the best living...you should be thanking God for being so much happy...
Stay blessed friend....

Kids can be a lot of work sometimes, but I think that's normal. Being so naughty and disorderly is part of childhood and how they live it. Despite this situation, I think you had a great time eating pizza and then having a nice time with the family on Sunday.

I only saw one photo, but with four children in a house what you showed cannot be called a mess. It is simply a normal state of a house...
Be happy and enjoy your children/nephews. They will grow up very quickly and then all you will have are memories and some photos...

My friend @ brian.rrr beautiful your children this weekend I play alone at home while your wife was outside you are right the children give a little work they have a lot of energy

I would like the weekend to have one more day so it would last a little longer, greetings.

Hello Friend how are you? you're right I think it's a rule for the weekend that should happen very fast, I think the weekend should last a little longer but well that's the way things are

The children usually give a lot of work but they are beautiful, you had a busy weekend but in family it is important

Happy week

Friend, how are you? I see that you had a very hectic weekend but the important thing that your children enjoyed that disaster because for them that is happiness although for you it is more work the important thing is the binestar of your children.

These beautiful children are growing very fast and I am sure that I will continue watching them as they grow, thank you for sharing your family moments.

Greetings to all!

Poop in the bathtub? That sounds terrible. And it looks like a tornado went through your house. At least you had reinforcements show up later in the day.

Such a beautiful weekend with your happy family. Really God gives you the best gift. Your kids are the one of the most beautiful and happy kids in your country. And you are the most lucky dad. Happiness is always with you.

Dude, I've been there before. Actually, I would take the straight up poop in the tub any day over the explosive diarrhea that my kids have had in their pants a few times. I'm talking after diapers are gone. There is nothing worse than having to undress them in the tub and deal with the disgusting clothes as you are going along. The struggle is real. Dad fun the max.

Nice weekend , your wife is a good women . And your son is very cute . Have a nice weekend .
Thanks for sharing @brian.rrr

fantastic weekend and I hope to see the photos of your brother friend.
@calitoo

The baby really pooped 💩 in the tub

What a job your wife had when she returned to the house, however it is evident that they enjoyed a lot of their weekend.

Your son smile is very adorable .. I do not get tired of seeing him ..😊😘

As everything in family with its ups and downs I hope that Kendra is well after the small incident, I imagine your reaction to put the order back, either by Kristine who was able to enjoy the bachelorette party, with the tranquility that responsible papa was in the care of Jacob and Kendra, beautiful your family a greeting for all @brian.rrr

well you seemed to have a busy weekend , not really relaxing at all ; ) all the best x

definitely a fun weekend, relaxed and with good food... Your photos are great, they show the funny disaster and the joy.

Excellent weekend, The best thing is that his wife had fun and he could spend time father-children full of games.
I love that they do not lose opportunity to get wet and that they enjoyed sausages.
Now I hope your week is more calm but equally full of love.

Your wife is a good wife. You should thank to God for her. Your sons are very cute. Good to see your family. God bless your family...

I definately agree with that! Appreciate the kind words!

What a good weekend, to share with the children so that your wife has the opportunity to enjoy the bachelorette party. It's nice of you regards!
