I was able to laugh about this a few hours after it happened, so I thought it would be good to write it down to remember it. At the time, it was SO not funny.

Matt is in California for a Hematology conference
I had just arrived home after a Christmas party at our friends house (16 adults, 13 kids - pure chaos) where Kate varied between temper tantrums and stealing toys from all the smaller kids and Liv wouldn't be set down or held by anyone but me
It's past Liv's bed time, so she's crashing and cranky. As soon as we walk in the door, I take her upstairs and give my phone to Kate so she can watch Curious George (because I'm awesome like that)
I'm feeding Liv, when I hear Kate come sobbing up the stairs: "Mommy, I peed on myself"
I immediately stop feeding Liv and set her down, so she starts screaming
I take Kate into the bathroom to clean her off, all the while, she keeps repeating, "This is terrible"
Liv comes to find us and almost crawls down the stairs
Kate has a temper tantrum when I leave her to rescue her sister from going down the stairs
I finally get Kate cleaned up and put Livvy down for bed
Liv is now super over tired and won't go to sleep
I let Kate keep watching Curious George so I can rock Liv again
Once Liv is finally asleep, I take the trash and recycle outside and down to the road
Kate locks me out of the house (not entirely her fault...I locked the door because Matt was gone, and she shut it while I was outside)
Thankfully we have a spare key outside
Needless to say, once both girls were asleep I got in a good workout and went to bed!
