Andrew and I had a very unforgettable dinner tonight. We went to our usual destination...Rosie's . When we got there the hostess sat us beside this noisy family with 3 children. I'm guessing their ages were 5, 3, and 5 months old. Well, the 3 year old was a pill the entire time they were sitting there. After what seemed like an eternity they decided to leave. The mother took the 5 and 3 yr old to the car while the father waited to pay the bill. The father settles up with the waiter and walks toward the car. Andrew and I were both so happy they finally left. I said out loud, "Gosh...I thought they'd never leave!" Just then I heard a baby crying. Andrew looks over the seat and there sits the 5 month old baby in her carrier. The parents actually left their child!!!!! I got up to see about the baby while all the other guests at the restaurant watch in disbelief. I heard several people say that they should call DHR. After a few minutes the parents realized they had forgotten the baby & they came back to get her. How sad is that!

Oh my gosh, we have the same layout! Great minds... Ellis is so cute!
Wow....sounds like loser parents but at the same time I can see it happening. It's easy to get lost about who's doing what when multiple kids are acting up. A little baby could easily be lost in the frustration of the entire situation. That's still not an excuse for forgetting a child (and especially a little baby) but I guess if you're being stressed to the limit you can do something stupid.
