Kind of. We only went 60 miles down the road. We tried to time it with Caitlin's nap, but of course, she foiled that plan and never took her nap. We managed to:
*knock out a trip to the AT&T store to inquire about our upgrades
*stop at a Halloween store (and spend what felt like 2 hours there)
*browse Best Buy for 4 min
*attempt to find sandals for Chad (who according to me has funny shaped feet)
*eat a late lunch
*stop in 3 or 4 stores at the mall for Mom to try on jeans (big ordeal for me if you know my leg length to waist ratio)
*add 2 more stores to Chad's sandal challenge (which ended with a pair of boat shoes and tennis shoes-no sandals)
*make one more stop at the AT&T store to purchase Mom a smartphone (we decided to order Chad's online-they were out of stock at the store)
*and finally stop at Dairy Queen on the way out of town
before Caitlin finally passed out on the way home. She didn't have a single full blown melt down. Only a few minor ones that were easily avoided (yea for two parents!). Bug fell asleep about 30 min from home, we woke her up so she could have a paleo peanut butter and honey sandwich (which means gluten free bread, sunflower butter and organic honey) and get into pajamas.
Remember the day I posted about Erin and I's fantastic trip to Alex? Yea, today was almost a mirror image :) If I had a glass in my hand I'd cheers to my Husband for his amazing ability to slip right into the role of Dad seamlessly like he's been doing it every day for the past 20 months :)
