Shhhhhhhh....They're Sleeping

My sister's kids came and stayed the night last night. The only place for them to sleep in this house in on our sofa bed. Our house is a one and a half story and the layout is a little weird. Anyway, my kids are early to bed, early to rise. My sister's kids are older (13,11, and 9) and stay up later and sleep later. For my kids sleeping in is eight o'clock. Max.

The sofa bed is in our living room. My kids were up at the usual seven this morning. We put in a DVD in Emma' room. (Yes Emma had a t.v and DVD player in her room. Only because there is no other place to put it.) Davis however thought that the kids still sleeping was intriguing.

He told me, "Shhhh, they're sleeping," as he watched over them.

Oh, that's so cute!

He didn't wake them up? That's Guthrie's favorite game!

Guthrie got used to having someone to sleep with the last few weeks - first my mom, then my 15 yo niece and his sister Samantha, then just Samantha, and one night Sammie and Roz. He's not crazy about going back to sleeping alone!

He looks so sweet watching over them like that.

Max would have peeled back an eyelid or jumped on them horsey style.

I was a bit surprised that he just wacthed them and did not do anything to do them. At times Davis is a very sweet, sensitive soul. This must have been one of those times.....

And Just Like That.....

I made the fatal mistake of reading reviews and articles before watching a single episode of the show. I knew full well I would watch every episode regardless. I read anyway. Spoilers? Not bothered. Let me give some back story here. At 17/18 my dream had been to go to a big city (Chicago was my thinking at the time), get my degree in journalism/editing/publishing and go work at a big time magazine. Keep in mind we are talking about the mid 90's here so the idea that magazines would cease to be relevant was not even on my radar. I had been editor of my high school yearbook and unbeknownst to me at the time, we were actually doing the yearbook by coding and would get printouts hoping we had coded copy correctly. I just typed the copy I was supposed to type with the weird little codes that had been given to me on a piece of paper. I would later discover this was actually HTML code we were doing. Who knew? This fu...

Why Choose It?

Judy posted a comment about being jealous at two weekends away from the kids. About how she figured it would be a long time before she got that chance. I have to admit, I thought better her than me to have the new baby. After our two weekends away and Mark joking that it was his ploy to convince me to not have anymore, I have to say.....I think it worked. After thinking about it and being able to get away so easily because the kids are bigger, I could not help but think, why go back and do it all again? If you had a choice between going out of town for the weekend or being stuck, tied down to a newborn who was feeding from your breasts every two hours and waking every three ,which would you choose? To which one might say why ever have kids at all.....fine. I have TWO. I have done it TWICE. Not only that, but for anyone who cares about it, I have one of each. One is almost seven, the other almost three. Granted Davis is not potty trained yet, but he does change his own diaper sometimes...
