Finally asleep, and together, out of my room. I had all 5 kids in bed all at the same time. No one was complaining about more drink, or he's touching me, or she's being to loud.... You get the idea. Evie is usually the easy one to get to sleep. You put her pacie in her mouth and lay her in bed, and she's out. Ellie takes the stars, moon, and the sun to be in perfect allignment until she falls asleep. Then actually getting her to stay asleep once put into bed is another cosmic encounter. So one might understand my excitement when it was only 8pm and all 5 are asleep and Bobby is at school. What will I do? I think I even giggled with excitement over my prospective night alone. Should I catch up on my year and a half behind scrapbook? Should I do laundry and then something fun? Should I just watch a movie and eat bad things on the couch? So many possibilities, so little time before bedtime. So I decided to do all of these things. First I would start the washing machine and then I would pull out my latest scrapbooking page while watching a movie and eating something yummy. Then I would be productive and creative all while feeding my inner me. I close the lid to the washer and "WAAAAA!" Ellie has woken up and being that she is in the same bed as Evie, she has woken her up too. I say "WAAAAAA!!!!!"
