Week 281: Daddy Daughter Weekend Edition June 16, 2009
The big event this weekend was that Geralyn went on a little mini vacation with some of her family (a girls only kind of thing), and my initial suggestion that she take the kids with her was firmly rejected. So I took a half day on Friday and started waiting for Geralyn to get back late Sunday night. This wasn't the first time I had been left alone in charge of my offspring, but I think it was the longest. I made it until Sunday afternoon before putting in a DVD.

Actually, we had a pretty busy weekend. We went to swim lessons, visited Grandpa, went to the library, had a donut breakfast, went to the science museum, and had a picnic lunch. And here's a pro-tip for when mom is away: let the kids sit at the living room coffee table to eat meals and it's LIKE THE BEST THING EVER. Seriously, they went nuts for this, though they actually didn't eat much come to think of it. And despite all this, the highlight of their weekend was when a horse (with a cop on it) walked past our car at the park.

But at any rate, nobody died (including me) and nobody threw a fit demanding to have their mommy (including me), so I think it was a rounding success. Though they were glad to see Geralyn when she got back.

Heh, I may have been the one to put her in that, but Ger's the one that let her wear it to the grocery store.
