If a two year old could have a concrete measurement of a good day, I am sure it would be by the amount of dirt between their toes. I'm pretty sure Gavin had a fun day today.
We spent the morning at the Down Syndrome Indiana fundraiser called the Buddy Walk Downtown. It was a cold, but beautiful day. However, from all the rain this week, it was a muddy muddy mess. I wish these pictures truly showed how dirty he reality was. His pants, shirt, and shoes were covered in mud. He insisted on wearing crocks, which I wasn't thrilled about with the cold weather. In hindsight, they were probably perfect because they are so washable. The bad thing was they would get stuck in the mud and he would walk out of them.
The other "interesting" part of the day was this was our first truly public/large group outing were there were lines for a bathroom (portalet). Luckily we never had to wait for more than 1 person, but the portalet was absolutely disgusting!! I thought they were bad to go in myself, but imagine a 2 year old and everything he wants to touch, let a lone needs to touch just to get up on the potty and pee. Luckily I bought a potty seat to take with us places so he doesn't fall in and this was the first time we really used it (THANK GOD!). On top of that, imagine the level you must bend down to to help a 2 year old get their pants up... It was not fun.
Luckily they also had portable hand washing stations with running water, soap....
Later that night we went to hear Allen play in the Muncie Music Festival which was cold, but fun. Gavin enjoyed watching his daddy play drums and the music. Of course, again we were at a large public place with limited bathrooms. This time there was alittle more waiting, but at least it was an indoor bar bathroom (not exactly my first choice, but after the morning a major improvement).
