All of what you say is there and should work to get your last open files back.
You remember last open files by checking it in the General preferences, and
then they should reopen on the next launch. Though not when you launch Skim by
opening a file. Also, the last open files item in the Bookmarks menu should
always be there if there were open files when Skim quitted.
But I don't know what goes wrong for you, it should work. How do you launch
Skim? Are these files on the same disk?
BTW, you can save sessions as a Session Bookmark.
