So about 2 hours into our 5 hour drive to yosemite...the truck totally breaks down as we are driving on the freeway. We pull over and Marcelo looks under the hood...determines it is the alternator and proceeds to call Triple A. Meanwhile..the babys getting restless in the back so I let him stand up in his car seat amd he is facing the front. "An opportune time to chane his diaper!" I think, seeing how it could be akward to do so in the truck. As I get the dirty one off amd wipe him down, he proceeds to pee a ton all over his clothes and car seat! Oh man. So I get his wet clothes off and pull him closer to me at which time he takes a huge dump all over the blankets amd pillows, pees some more on me, and then proceeds to step in his poop before I can clean it up! Like omg. Just omg. I about lost it...and then I started cracking up at what a moment it was. So we got stuff cleaned up as much as possible. Fortunately...I had forgotten to pack his pants with our big bag so they were in an easily accessible place...but the rest of his clothes are roped.down under stuff in the truck. So luckily he has clean pants, a jacket, one sock and some shoes on as we wait to get the truck fixed. Also...the tow truck.driver was super.cool and took us to a place where they could work on it right away! So there is still Hope to make it to the redwood forest today!
