the zoo.

Today we are supposed to go to the zoo. Should be fun. It is supposed to be nice out (Can anyone say 70 degrees?!) an we will be meeting one of my friends from college there with her daughter that is a little younger than Stone.

I have 2 dilemmas with the day. First, do I want to rejoin the zoo or just pay as I go. It's quite a drive for me to go to the zoo. Probably 45 minutes. Now, I get that this is not that much, but when you are tired all the time and have to drag 2 kids plus all the snacks/lunch/and other things like diapers and extra clothes, it just gets old.

The other dilemma is which stroller to take. If I take the big heavy double stroller, I have to push the big heavy double stroller possibly with both kids in it. This means I could potentially be pushing around 125 pounds. Just 25 pounds shy of my current weight. I say current because I am on an upswing at the moment. If I take the single stroller, it is lighter which is nice, but then Zane has to walk and I can just hear the whining about being tired. I'm already exhausted mentally and physically.

I'm thinking single and I'll tell Zane we can ride the train a few times before we go if he keeps walking. There's also always juice boxes for energy. I buy really small ones so he does not have that much sugary juice at one time and they are a special drink, not an every day drink.

There you have it, my lame dilemmas for the day. I just hope the bears do not smell too bad when we walk by. Ugh!
