I took Noah to the zoo today because the weather was awesome and also because the zoo closes for the season on the 12th! They are having their annual Halloween festivities, but I wanted to take him before then. We got there just in time for the sea lion feeding. At first Noah wanted absolutely nothing to do with it, but he warmed up to it after he saw mommy feed them. It was nice just to have some alone time with him and be able to listen to some of the funny things he has to say. After that I took him to McDonalds to exhaust him even more in their playland. I was really excited to think that by the time we got home he would be sound asleep. Than the trip got interesting. On the way home I got stuck behind this huge semi so naturally I wanted to at least attempted to get around him because let's face it those things are never fun to be around period! I get in the left lane there's a minivan going as slow as he can because I am guessing he is absolutely petrified to pass this thing up. O.K. fine no problem I'll try the right lane, same deal! Of course I was really frustrated because I really wanted to get around this thing. I've really been trying to watch my mouth around my son (I have really severe road rage sometimes) so I politely said "Oh fudge!" Noah than started with the why questions. Why did I say fudge? Why didn't I say the bad word? Why am I trying to get around the truck? Why why why!? I love my child to death, but I literally had to tell him to be quiet that mommy was getting really angry. LoL! Finally the guy in the right lane exits off and I seriously hauled butt only to realize the guy in the far left lane finally got the guts to pass the semi up and was racing with me to shift over into the middle lane. Idiot drivers. Finally we got home, Noah was asleep just like I planned and wow I'm still wondering where all this laundry has come from! I seriously did two loads yesterday and today I have about three sitting in the basket by the washer and dryer! It's crazy and I think my husband might know something about it, but I will have to ask him. All I can say is my day started out great, had a little bit of chaos in between, and ended up exhausting. I am so beat!

Oh and Hooray for officially being 21 weeks today!
