Who uses Redbox? It's my favorite thing. One dollar DVD rentals... who can beat that? We love it!
My second favorite thing... Slow Melt Mini Popsicles. Do you buy them? If not, you should. Especially if you have kids under the age of 3. They're amazing. James and Jillian can have them and there is literally no mess. They're so small and they eat them up before they melt.
I wish I could design a park. It would be so mom-friendly. The little kids park would be gated so those that have multiples wouldn't have to worry when one runs off. They couldn't get out without an adult opening the gate. There wold be a ton of shade, a ton of trees and grass. No wood chips, but the soft cushy rubber ground. A separate shaded sand box. I have so many more great ideas. It would be so popular.
Anyway, after we picked up Derek from Summer Camp today, we went to Sam's Club. Everything was perfect until James grabbed the raspberries and threw them. They flew everywhere. A little girl stepped and slipped on one. Her mom gave me the dirtiest look. I was so upset with James. Derek's yelling, 'Mom, mom look what James did! He's being a brat'... SUPER loud. A woman came and helped me clean them up and said, 'Don't worry about it, I remember those days'. I was so thankful for her. And get this... this was the 2nd time this has happened. But the first time was in the back of the store and no one saw (or slipped on them)... so I didn't even pick them all up. Now I've learned my lesson: keep the raspberries FAR away from James.

Oh man oh man do I hate the park too! I hate it. We should invent a mom friendly park... with shade, and I love the gated area for the smaller kids play equipment idea, and maybe cute boys with mister bottles bringing us snacks and drinks. Um, yeah I think we should start one of these places!!! hahaha
And the Sam's Club story... embarrassing. Oh my. I hate when that kind of stuff happens, and you have one rude mom who likes at you like her kids you know don't stink. Don't worry, it happens to all of us. And next time, no rasberries near that James! :)
Oh Kelly...you do make me laugh!!! That raspberry story is hilarious!! I have to go check out the new sport park. Prado is like that. The new park is all on that foam mat stuff, and it is so nice and clean!!!
I would go to your park... sounds heavenly!
And the raspberries... YIKES! At least someone was kind enough to help you out!
Your park does sound quite divine! What I want to know is why they are making parks these days without swings??? There are NO parks by me that have swings, is that not lame or what??? So make sure your dream park has swings with shade over them so kids bums don't get fried when they sit on the swings.
Life with multiples sounds crazy!
