Well, I decided today was the day...a big trip into town, all 8 of us. I only have a few more days to turn in the kids Christmas lists so the plan was to go to Toys R Us. We had to move all 4 carseats to the big van, so Albert would get to go with us (He doesn't want to do that again.). After getting the seats situated...we started loading 2 by 2. Oldest first. Both 7 yr olds loaded, 4 & 5 yr old loaded. Heading to the car with both babies...STOP EVERYTHING...baby girl's pants are soaking wet! I have to take her back inside and change her clothes while everyone else waited in the van. Finally, we are loaded.
We all get out at Toys R Us (there was a car parked right infront of the store, blocking traffic, because they had a baby), we park half way out so no cars were around and put babies in stroller, made the girls hold hands and headed into the store. We spent 1 and 1/2 hours looking around. I was writing down everything the kids wanted (very specific) and the babies were hitting each other. Albert was pushing the stroller, trying to keep babies occupied and watching kids.
Finally, I am starving and the oldest has to eat soon, we leave for Ci Ci's pizza. This place is like a little piece of heaven on earth. Fed all 8 of us for around $35, but the best part...no clean up or dishes!!!!
I am officially exhausted! The rest of the day was busy, more on that later.
