Getting the Monkeys Ready to Go ANYWHERE

"Monkey 1, get your shoes on."
"Monkey 2, go get your socks."
"No, the red socks on the couch. Not your sweatshirt."
"Monkey 3, go get your shoes."
"Monkey 1, go get me the brush."
"Monkey 2, go get your shoes."
"Monkey 2, put the book down and get your shoes."
"Monkey 2, your shoes."
"Monkey 1, quit hiding behind the couch and bring me the brush."
"Monkey 1, put your hands down, I can't brush your hair with your hands over your head."
"Monkey 3, where is your shirt?"
"Monkey 1, go find Monkey 3's shirt. It's in the kitchen."
"Monkey 3, go get your shoes."
"Where are Monkey 3's socks?"
"Monkey 2, why are you standing on your head? You can't do a sommersault with shoes on."
"Monkey 1 go and get me the hair band over by the phone in the kitchen."
"Monkey 3, your shoes. They are pink. The ones you get out of the closet 5 times a day when we AREN'T going anywhere."
"No Monkey 1! Not the PHONE. The hair band NEXT to the phone. Put the book down and pay attention."
"Okay, I'm leaving. Get in the car or I'll leave you here."
"Monkey 2, don't try to carry Monkey 3. She's almost as big as you are!"
"Monkey 3, don't pull the petals off our flowers. There's only one. I don't want it naked the day after it blooms!"
"Get in your seats."
"Monkey 2, leave the seatbelt alone. Don't pull it all the way out like that."
"Monkey 3, stop kicking. Sit still so I can buckle you."
"Monkey 2, move that book out of the way so I can buckle you."
"Ouch, you hit me in the head with that book! Be careful next time!"

"Does anyone know where we were going?"
