I think I've got him covered. I made sure of it this time. As much as I'd love to tell him to suck it up, I am erring on the side of making everyone happy.
Puffs up my chest, feels like a good Mom thing to do.
Until I realized that I only packed Gray five pairs of swim shorts. No pajamas. No underwear. No other clothes. And definitely not his sandals.
That seems to be the way it goes.

LOL, I would totally do that. (and I think I have)
ReplyDeleteBut at least he'll be happy poolside!! :)
ReplyDeleteOh so true, that is the way it goes. I'm famous for not packing diapers. I mean who forgets diapers? I have to pack those every time I leave the house. Why can't I remember them on trips?
ReplyDeleteHopefully he won't mind sleeping in swim trunks. ;)
This so made me laugh because I can totally see myself doing the same thing back in the day.
ReplyDeletethis is the story of my life. literally.
ReplyDeleteLOL! I totally get it. Like, when I packed for Disney World for a 2 week trip I was so proud because I thought I had everything...and when we arrived I realized we had ZERO swim diapers...major fail! :-)
ReplyDeleteOh Steph, it's not like you have 4 kids to pack for. Maybe they have clothes in the gift shop his size.
ReplyDeleteoops!
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure I've done that. Which is why the youngest is getting the "suck it up" treatment.
ReplyDeleteIt never fails that you will forget something. At least he will have a great time swimming! ;)
ReplyDeleteAw it probably wasn't at the time, but now it's funny...yes? Motherhood is full of things like this!
ReplyDeleteI will never forget pjs again after a certain experience in high school where I forgot to bring mine to a sleepover and had to wear my friend's sundress. Very uncomfortable. I don't know why I didn't just sleep in my clothes but I wore a fancy frilly dress instead.
ReplyDeleteIt was so annoying that while I might forget diapers, pjs are no problem! Maybe this will turn into a perfect teachable moment and Gray will remind you next time. :)
An indoor waterpark sounds like a lovely kind of getaway for this time of year. Is the water warm?
