Saran Wrap...


...it's not just used in the kitchen.

Ahh...vacations.  Can you really call them vacations after you have kids?  Let's be honest -- a true vacation would consist of "getting away," "taking a break," or "rest and relaxation." 

After you have kids, a vacation WITH your children doesn't really conjure up images of rest and relaxation.  You're really just running the same program in the woods or by the beach.  And the packing involved just to get anywhere kind of cancels out the purpose of going in the first place.  

This is a picture of our car from our vacation to Maine last week.  Once we got the two pac-n-plays into the bag strapped to the roof, and packed every foot well and remaining square inch of our car with our crap -- we pretty much looked like Irish Tinkers.

Having a window fall into the door of our car was annoying before having kids.  Having a window fall into the car door in ME right next to my one year old's car seat and a two hour drive home including a ferry ride? 

A new kind of annoying.

Here's something much less annoying that happened on our "vacation":
