It's true! I'm finally going to visit! I'm headed down to see my sister April 30th. I'm so excited I'm beside myself! We'll hang out and do girly stuff Thursday and Friday and then sometime in the afternoon Saturday, we'll hop in her car for a long drive back! It's going to be a blast!
And last night I learned how cunning my child really is. Alaina and I were reading a book before bedtime and when I said it was time to go to bed, she hopped down and ran for her crib. I was so excited that she was ready to sleep. But she just yanked her blanket out through the bars and headed for my bed. After a great debate (crying and screaming on her part), she won and I told her she could only stay in my bed last night, tonight she would have to sleep in her own bed. She readily agreed to this and I laid her down with a couple of pillows to hinder a fall. But when I went to go upstairs, she patted the pillow beside her and said "Mama?" I guess the big thrill about sleeping in Mommy's bed is only when Mommy's in it! Fortunately I didn't cave on the point that it wasn't Mommy's bedtime and she only protested with a little whine. Hopefuly she remembers her promise to sleep in her bed tonight.

And thus it begins......
Jenna makes that promise to me nightly. LOL. She wins almost nightly. I can't lie though. I don't mind. She won't be in there forever and someday my husband will be on the road and I will be sleeping alone wishing my babies were with me again.
Ha! I know you lost that fight!
Time for bribery! Jack likes the crib, so sleeping with Jackk requires sleeping in the crib. (She can help you put him to bed...)
BTW-Jack is her stuffed sheep.
