When Devin and Lauren were 3, and their older siblings were in school, I took them to Chuck E Cheese one morning.  It is really a great time to go, at 9 am.  No one is there.  The kids can run around like maniacs, and since you pretty much have the place to yourself, you can watch them easily.  Plus, they come home tired and take a nap!

My daughter Devin, from about birth to age 6 was a major handful.  I still anticipate picking her up from jail at least once during her teen age years.  Seriously.  So we are at CEC, and things are going fairly well.  Devin has gone up into the climbing thing and was wandering around up there.  I started talking to some other moms and I notice that the CEC workers were laughing and yelling at me, in Spanish.  I had no idea what was going on.  I turn around and Devin is coming down the slide.  Completely naked.  I chase her around the restaurant a few times thinking, where in that maze- that is suspended from the ceiling, am I going to find her clothes?  And what do I do?  Let her run around naked while I find them?  Drag her along with me, on a clothing safari hunt?  About this time, she runs into the mens' room.  I can hear her in there, singing an flushing toilets.  For about 5 minutes.  She finally comes out, and someone, mercifully, hands me her clothes.  

This was during her naked phase, when we could not keep clothes on her.  My photo album is filled with lovely shots of us decorating the Christmas tree, and Devin is naked.  The girls playing, and Devin is naked...  I have a lot of Devin stories....

(Notice in this picture:  her footie pajamas are turned around backwards, and zipped up the back. It was the only way we could keep them on her body)

I am planning on taking the youngest boys to CEC tomorrow morning.  Let's just hope history does not repeat itself!
