Strollering the Boards

An eighty degree day demands a stroll on the boardwalk at the end of the work shift. Only this evening was a case of strollering the boards since Motivated Mom and I were on babysitting duty while Media Girl was in school and a visit to the boardwalk meant pushing a stroller.

It had started innocently enough - a lunchtime e-mail to Motivated Mom suggesting a quick stroll before dinner.

Only Ihad  forgotten there is no such thing as a quick anything when there's a baby in tow.

After pulling into the driveway, I made a quick wardrobe change and headed for the door.

Ooops... Before getting to the door there was the diaper change, mixing formula, packing the diaper bag, folding the stroller, and loading everything into the car to set off on...

Another ooops... almost forgot the baby after all that packing.

So a dash back in the house, bundling of the baby, and off we went.

Only now we were famished from all the preparation and found ourselves questioning the wisdom of this "quick" little outing.
