Owen slept until about 2 minutes before Jennifer got home. 
Skylar was easy as pie and happy to be entertained by Ashlyn (a.k.a. little mommy).
.
And Haley was ok after she woke up all the way.
As soon as Jennifer got home we unpacked all of her new Creative Memories stuff and realized she was missing one thing. She got on the phone and called a Creative Memories consultant that lived only about a block away from her. While she was on the phone Kenny and Haley used every tool she bought and shredded about 50 million pieces of paper onto the floor. Jennifer made an appointment for us to go to the consultant's house after lunch and we headed out the door to find something to eat.
Six kids in the car and the batteries for the DVD player were dead. That was fun.
We bought Sonic for ourselves, our kids, and our husbands. I think we spent almost $50 between us. Yes, at Sonic!
Then we lost Skylar's pacifier and had to run back to the house for another one. She only screamed when we stopped at red lights, stop signs, slowed down for corners and tried to navigate around all of the retirees that decided to drive the same streets as us.
We took lunch to the guys and headed over to Hobby Lobby. That was an interesting adventure. I let Chase, Ashlyn, Kenny, Haley, and Owen to go to the kids' crafts together (without us). It was very relaxing for us, but not so much for the Hobby Lobby employees. We bought what we needed and everything went ok -- that is, other than Owen running out of the store and almost getting run over.
As if all of this isn't bad enough, after we got back to the house we decided to go to the Creative Memories consultant's house without the kids. Skylar was asleep and we were only going to be about 100 yards away. If you want to read about that adventure click here. Trust me, it's funny. And by the way, you will never, ever, ever, ever, ever nominate me or Jennifer for a Mother of the Year award after you read what she had to say about the last 45 minutes of our day together.
Oh, and one more thing ... please don't tell Brian or Scott! They don't really need to know what goes on while they are at work, do they?!?
