Locked in the bathroom, with the lights out, screaming...

So, I joined a gym last week and went to work out on Thursday morning for the first time. I had a good work out and Aydia surprisingly had an awesome time playing...if you know her, you know she is the baby that cries in the nursery at church the WHOLE time and on MANY occasions, they have had to come get me because she cries herself to throwing up! However, Riley did not have such a good time. When I went to pick the girls up, as I said, Aydia was fine, but they could not find Riley...I told them to look in the bathroom that is in the back. They opened the door and there is my sweet little girl, locked in, with the lights out, screaming. Nobody could hear her and the had NO idea she was in there. SCARY!!!! Anyways, she recovered very quickly and was totally fine, but man, that is scary as a mom. I tried to call and talk to the manager twice and she apparently is never there. I ended up just telling a desk worker what happened and asked them to tell the manager and that hopefully they can just take that as an eye opening experience and keep a better watch on the bathroom and it's activity. I brought the girls back with me today and Riley had no issues...I told the worker that she locked herself in the bathroom last time, so to watch her around the bathroom and she looked at me like, oh, you are the mom that complained about that...whatever, I just want my kids safe and not to play in toilet water! Aydia, on the other hand, screamed the whole time and they had to come get me because she threw up! It is a little frustrating to me, because I really want to work out and feel that the hour it takes me will make me a better mom and wife is so many ways. Please pray that Aydia will just play and have fun and that the workers will watch my kids!
This week is a pretty busy wee for us. Yesterday I went to Chuck E. Cheese with the girls for a kids bday party from church, then my friend Bre came over and we hung out while the kids took naps, then we went over to her and Paul's house for dinner...we made steaks! They were awesome! After dinner, we put the kids to bed over there and played Mad Gab until 11:30! It was SO much fun! Today is Emily's bday, so we are going to dinner at BJ's later tonight...LOVE BJ's! Tomorrow afternoon, I may take the girls to the reading at the library and then tomorrow night is our community group. Thursday and Friday is Josh's spring break and we are taking the girls to the Zoo in Fort Worth! I am so excited about this! I hope it doesn't rain. Friday we have Emily's bday party! It should be a fun, but busy week! There should be plenty of pictures from this week that I will put up next week.

Here are a couple pics of the girls from our Spring Photo Shoot!

Wow, what a scary experience! I am glad that you did complain. Do you have any clue how long she was in there for? Poor baby (and mom)!

I'm Michael Hall's wife, Brooke. Just wanted to say that we found your blog and Michael wanted to say hello. Your girls are so cute! Do you live in Rowlett? We're in Farmers Branch and see my parents just north of you in Rockwall a lot.
