Sleepover...

While out on our errands last night, we spontaneously decided to ask our niece to stay overnight with us. When I was setting up the "floorbed", Amelia grabbed her pillow and was so excited. I guess we could give it a try. It was late, so after a few giggles and crying spells, everyone was asleep. Unfortunately, it was short-lived. Calla and Chrissy were up by 6:00 a.m. This was one morning I was thankful to use the "babysitter" that sits free in our living room. "Hey girls, maybe you could go watch a video. Downstairs. Very quietly." Once Amelia was up, it was pancakes all around. The girls had to get creative to finish them up because this grocery shopper didn't realize how low the syrup had gotten. Peanut butter?(thanks Stacey!) Jam? Honey? We only had four left so they must have tasted good anyhow. Now they are all taking a well-needed rest and that is next on my agenda as well.
