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.....

Sometimes There Are No Words

Last night I met a new friend. Let me preface this by saying I have made exactly ONE new friend in the last ten years. This makes number two. My Babycenter and Blogging friend Amanda , was having a conference in KC. We made plans to meet up. I felt a bit odd. Here I was making plans to meet someone I only knew from the Net. But Mark thought it was perfectly great and even said for me to stay out as long as I wanted. He said it was not as if I was meeting up with someone I saw often. Stay out and talk and have fun. So I did. I made plans to meet with Amanda. I knew we had a lot in common. Both from the board and from reading her blog. I knew she was someone who if she lived closer to me we could hang out. But I was a bit apprehensive. Here was someone who only knew me through the computer. So many what if's , right? Mark was actually the one who said I should meet with her, if only for a little while. So, I picked Amanda up at her hotel and off we went to Fooleries. Great place to ...

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...
