Circus at Sam's Club!

Yep, that is right there was a circus at Sam's Club. It was us. We went to Sam's Club today and I swear I felt like we were some kind of circus act. Everyone was staring at us. We had two people ask if all the kids were ours? That question just puzzles me who with a half brain would take 5 small children to the store if they were not all yours? Are there really paople who do this? And why is it such a shock to see a family of 7 at Sam's Club? They are after all aimed to businesses and large families! Isn't that who you would expect to see there? As we were walking out of the store the person in the car that was driving past was literally staring at us now what was that all about? I felt like I should take a bow. What is it with people? Anyways so on a lighter note we took the kids to the pumpkin patch Friday but I forgot to take my camera. They had a good time though. We got 9 pumpkins! Then on Saturday we went to my mom's to carve them. My mom has some pictures of that I will have to get from her. Lil Frankie did a cat,and Gabe and Ian both did faces. I did a haunted tree and Big Frankie did a horseman. They all came out really nice. Of course the kids all had help with theres but they picked out what they wanted to do.

So what happened this morning?

We got home late last night so the kids slept in their clothes. Well this morning Frankie was supposed to be getting dressed for his field trip his clothes where on the couch and I went out to the kitchen to talk with Kathleen and see if we were supposed to send them with a lunch or anything. Well Frankie came out and was running around with Ryan so I figured he was ready he had his jacket on and shoes and everything. Well they left for school and I went back to the room to do my morning pick up of all clothes from the floor. I was getting things off the couch and low and behold there are the pants I had set out for Frankie to wear. I thought Ohhh My Goodness he wore the same pants that he wore yesterday. No good! Then I thought maybe big Frankie got him out a different pair of pants for whatever reason. So I asked him and he said no. I was not home yesterday when he got home from school so I asked if he had changed his clothes then in hopes that he didn't wear them to school yesterday just to my moms with would be better. Nope of course not that would be too lucky. So when Frankie got home I asked him "What happened this morning?" He just looked at me with a blank look on his face. He obviously had no idea what I was talking about. So I asked him if he changed his pants this morning and he said that daddy told him that he could wear the ones he had on but apparently that is not what happened really I still don't know what happened I just hope that no one noticed. Of course that would be too easy. I am sure I will get a call from his teacher requesting that he wear clean clothes everyday.
