It Happened!

Today it actually happened, we left one of our kids at church!  We were about 2/3's of the way home till Travis looked back and asked "Where's Drew?". How could the whole family be sitting right around this empty car seat and no one notice?   You always hear of those stories, and now I am in that category: forgetting my child.

Where is Drew?
This is Drew's pose he does when he thinks he is "cute".

How could we forget this little guy?  When we got back to the church, he was with some ladies in my ward.  They were holding onto him knowing we would realize sometime soon.  Thanks Erinn, Amy, and Tricia.  He didn't seem to know that church was over, so I guess no damage done.  That's what happens when you come from a family of five kids!

That is funny! Hunter would get left every week if he had anything to do with it. He throws the biggest fit when I make him leave nursery! What is that saying about me as his Mother? I guess I am just no fun!

That is too funny! Good thing it was at church and not somewhere else! He wont ever remember it but will probably hold it over your heads when he is older :)

Love it! When I had number 4 I was always so scared I was going to forget one of my kids. I'm sure my day is awaiting! That is too funny!

It was going to happen sooner or later. Have had a couple of those already. It's just good it happen to the one that wouldn't be scarred by the whole episode. Camden is the one that would never get over it. Drew is such a cutie.
Remember how Drew was Dave's friend and then the day we went to the beach he asked Dave why he was following him.

Was Travis driving really fast to get home after church and looking in the rear view mirror intensely?
