With Keri moving in two weeks and our favorite little munchkins heading to their grandma’s house for the next three weeks, we decided to invite them over last night for a sleepover/pajama party.  After painting our finger and toenails ‘grape jelly’ purple, we loaded up in my car and headed to the theater to see Kung Fu Panda.  I’ve taken the munchkins to multiple movies, but this one easily takes the cake as craziest experience ever.  After we bought our tickets, I took M (the 3-year old) to use the bathroom while Keri took J (the 8-year old) to find seats.  As the movie began, M crawled up into my lap and within the first 15 minutes fell asleep.  Knowing she was tired and her attention span was low, I let her sleep until all of a sudden my right thigh felt warm and wet.  In the next seven seconds, she somehow managed to pee in her sleep and drench my leg and herself.  Hoping to not cause a scene, I didn’t make a huge fuss of the situation and opted to just ‘deal with it’ when the movie was over.  You see, we were in the middle of a huge aisle, and I had no desire to interrupt 15 people in both exit directions as I tried to get to the bathroom.

Of course, the movie theater had to feel like it was 60 degrees and I had to wonder if the pee was crystalizng on my leg as I sat there praying no one around me would notice the state we were in.  In my head, I just kept playing out the scene where the little boy in front of us starts whispering to his mom asking if she can smell that and then chaos ensues and I wind up in jail.  Yeah, that’s how my brain works.  Thank goodness, the movie ended quickly, and we dashed into Walmart to get M a fresh set of clothes and get her cleaned up.  We could have just taken her home but it was already 7pm, and we had promised the girls Peter Piper Pizza.  We’re push-overs… what can I say?!?!  I swear everything I ever need to know about motherhood (including how to explain to the changing room attendant that your kid had an accident and you promise to remove the tags and pay for the clothes when you checkout) I learned from these munchkins.
