We were just trying to have a nice outting...

Last weekend, we all went to City Dock in Annapolis to have our picnic dinner, feed the ducks, and walk around to enjoy the fabulous weather.  It started going downhill when Jon and I decided to stop at Ram's Head to grab a quick appetizer and drink with the kids outside.  Two meltdowns shortly ensued (and a third was pending if we didn't leave immediately) and we promptly left.  All was better on the walk back to car.  As we left downtown Annapolis, traffic halted on the tiny Weem's Creek Bridge because of Navy Football traffic (epic fail #2).  We calmly waited until we suddenly discovered that the tiniest member of the family had puked chocolate milk all over her white capri pants, carseat, and coat.  There was no place to pull over, no supplies in the front seat (not even wipes) and she was screaming bloody murder.  Brody wasn't helping as he kept announcing how gross the whole thing was and smelled and instructed me to clean it up.  After TWENTY minutes (yes really), we were able to move and get her cleaned up with the vomit kit I have in the trunk (I never leave home without it).  Needless to say, we will not be taking any evening trips out for a while!
