Last Saturday while Jen went to get her hair done I decided to venture out with all three kids on my own.  I’ve done this before and it definitely wasn’t easy on past attempts.  The main issue really is the inevitable “I gotta pee” or “I gotta go poop” that comes at the most inconvenient time (like right when we get to a store or wherever we were going).  After thinking about it leading up to Saturday I figured the park down the street was a fun place for them and an easy outing for me.

This park is pretty new (~ 3 years old) and has 2 different playgrounds.  As we were headed in Alex and Avery said they wanted to play on the lower playground, which we don’t usually visit.  Luckily we had the whole playground to ourselves which made my job much easier.  All 3 kids had fun and the park even had some small stuff that Adam could enjoy.

After a while on the playground I got out the stroller for Adam and we all 4 went on a nature walk around a very small part of the ~ 1 mile path.  The kids enjoyed all of the nature (birds, bees, etc) and luckily there were some very clean/over-sized porta potties for when the moment we spoke of came (leave it to Alex!)

Luckily I was able to snap a bunch of good pictures while the kids were all playing and getting along.  All in all it was a fun little outing that I was able to handle (as Alex and Avery would say) “all by my own.”
