Where's Auttumn....?


So here is my scare for the day. I had sent Noelle to dance which is at my next door neighbors house, left Auttumn right out front on my sidewalk and ran inside my house to get the phone. I was not even gone 1 min. and when I came back out side Auttumn was no where in sight. I yelled over to Noelle and asked her if Auttumn was over there and she said no. I went over to my other next door neighbors house thinking maybe she went to knock on their door but no...... I went back over to where Noelle was and walked around that house....still no Auttumn. Came back home thinking, maybe she went inside the house without me seeing her....nope she wasn't in the house. About this time I was starting to get panicked because there has been a couple of kidnapping scares down at the elementary school. I went back over to the neighbors house to see if maybe she did go over there and I just didn't see her the first time.....Still no Auttumn. At that time my neighbor across the street yells my name and with a big smile on her face brings Auttumn over to me. My heart stopped racing, the labor pains that had begun to start, suddenly stopped and I relaxed. I asked her if Auttumn had knocked on her door and with a giggle she said, "Um no, she was in my bathroom". Not only had Auttumn knocked on her door, she had walked in leaving the door slightly ajar and made herself at home by using her bathroom. The funniest part about the whole thing is my neighbor had just gotten home from picking up her kids from school, walked inside to use her bathroom and found the little terd. When my neighbor opened the bathroom door Auttumn looked up waved and said with a smile, Hi. Why was I so panicked she was just in my neighbors house....alone.....in the bathroom. What in the WORLD!

YIKES! Isn't that the worst feeling ever! I have had that happen a couple of times where Faisal has wondered off and was discovered a couple of blocks away at the park!!! Luckily a neighbor found him and brought him home. I got lucky!

What a little stinker!! I lost Dallin at one of the outlet stores in St. George. I looked for him with Mindy for about 30 minutes. At the point I was about to totally lose it I stopped and scanned the store and caught the gaze of two little eyes peering at me through the clothes rack. He had climbed up on the bars that cross through the bottom and was watching me the whole time through the hangers!! He is lucky people were there.
