Our Sunday night

A typical evening after dinner before bed Paul and I can be found struggling to calm our 3 big kids down and getting them into the shower. Showering 3 kids seems simple right? For some reason, Paul and I are really bad at it. Tonight proved this. Andrew and Allison were both hyper and showered really fast tonight, leaving Ashley behind. Ashley was bouncing around and full of energy running around naked and slamming doors, when she finally got into the shower, just to slip and hit her eye. Of course all I hear is this frighting scream coming from my bedroom. I tried to get into my room, but of course during Ashley's bout of endless energy and slamming doors, she locked the door. So here I stand on one side of the door and there she stands on the other screaming. She manages to unlock the door and I find her standing naked, half wet with blood dripping down her face and down her body. After calming her down (Andrew calming down Andrew, who was crying, upset an scared, we decide to take her to urgent care.  Two and a half hours later, the doctor says he can't stitch it because of the location, the eyelid is too delicate and he would need to sedate her. So he told us to go to the ER. Two and a half hours later, she is asleep and the doctor glues it. It is now 12:30am and we have all  4 kids heading out of the hospital on a school night. Paul was so tired that he decided to go to Jack in the Box to get something to eat to help himself stay awake on the drive home. He is in the drivethru ordering food, when Andrew says he wants a taco. Allison now says that she wants a taco too. By the time we get up to the window to collect the food, Allison is asleep so Andrew eats her taco. Paul and I are cracking up that Andrew is awake at 1:00am eating Jack in the Box tacos with us. Not exactly a proud parent moment, but glad we got to have him experience a 1am taco run with us for the first time.
