on day 2 we tried a new commute path, which worked very smoothly. we didn’t get lost! drop off went smoothly and then the squirt and i were left to our own devices.
one of the most inconvenient things about having no home base is having no bathroom, especially at the end of a looooong drive. so our first stop was walmart, because we needed the bathroom. we clearly needed this viewmaster too. because what is cooler than a viewmaster?
after a quick stroll through walmart, and some quality time van camping in the parking lot, we decided we would check out the new austin children’s museum, the thinkery. it looked cool, was kind of crowded, and we didn’t stay too long. i think it is a place the squirm would really enjoy. the squirt preferred the playground across the street and the duck pond.
we ended up wet and muddy, and had to make an emergency run for new shoes (to target) but it was worth it and we will definitely go visit our goose friends again.
things went a little downhill from here, and mommy delayed lunch way too long. poor squirticus was beside himself by the time we finally found a place and got our french fries. clearly he and i need to make a better plan for ourselves!!
