M I A...

Last night I was FINALLY able to attend a MNO, {Mom's Night Out}, with the ladies from my mommies of multiples play group. We went to the Melting Pot for dessert! YUM! You can imagine how much fun it was for us! Eleven women {all mommies of multiples}, three bowls of various flavors of chocolate & ton's of dipper's. ie: strawberries, rice krispy treats, brownies, you name it we had it! We had the best time chatting away about anything & everything when I noticed I had a missed call. It was from my hubby. He NEVER calls me when he is in charge of the tribe! Scratch that, he did call me one other time & that was when we ran out of diapers. Yes we ran out of diapers! You can imagine how that went over! LOL! So I knew that it had to be important for him to pick up the phone & interrupt my fun.What fun we did have but that's another story! (= Anyhow he proceeded to tell me when he was putting the tribe to bed he could not find "Patty", Lindsey's "lovey". She was MIA, For those in the airline biz NO I am not talking about Miami International Airport, I am talking Missing In Action! "Patty" is the stuffed panda bear that she can NOT live without! He searched EVERYWHERE & she was getting upset that she was going to have to go to bed without her. Daddy did some quick thinking because after searching the house with no luck he remembered "Patrick" out in the 'burb. Patrick is a let's say "plumper" version of Patty, so we said he was "Patty's" "brother" & then named him "Patrick". I keep him out in the 'burb just for moments like this.Nothing like having a child hysterical because her best friend is missing! He gave her Patrick & all was right in the world. YAY! I'm telling you this is why I do not want them having "loveys"! Another thing to make my life even harder! ugh! Needless to say I did my own search this morning. It's weird the places you know to check when you are around them 24/7! I finally found her in of all places Dustyn's room. This room is off limits when "D" is not here. I remembered that they had "helped" me with the laundry and carried a set of his clean sheets to Dustyn's room for me. So I picked up the sheets & there she was under them! YAY! I am just happy that I will not be dealing with "Where's Patty?" ALL day long! Nothing like dealing with a lovey that is...
