then avery came out...she had to go to the bathroom.
a few minutes pass, i can hear blake singing/talking to himself but he usually does that so not worried about it
ethan comes out...he has to go to the bathroom, i am sure his little sister is standing in the hallway....
they each get a "mulligan" and are told to go back to bed, no more freebies...
about 10 minutes pass, kendall goes to work out...
avery comes out, she argues with me for a minute and finally says she has to go to the bathroom again, number 2. she takes care of that...
10 minutes later...ethan comes out again and says, "what would happen if you try to read in the dark mom?" like i can't figure out what he's trying to do.....
me: go to bed ethan
him: but mom i really need to know what would happen!
me: just go to bed!
him: but mom!!! just tell me!!!!
me: you'll hurt your eyes but you shouldn't be reading anyway, so just GO TO BED!
radio silence for about 3 minutes...
here comes avery..."mom, blake is singing the itsy bitsy spider to himself..."
me: avery, that's cute, now GO TO BED!
i go up there and tell them they have lost computer privileges for tomorrow and if they get up again, they'll get in deep trouble....seemed to work since they didn't come out again, but come on! it's about 9:30 by then...and i thought we were doing good at 8:) oh well, some nights are like that huh?
other news...finally stabbed myself with my exacto knife...it was bound to happen. i have it in a small flower pot by the phone (so my kids can't get it) but i was looking for something else in the flower pot, and i picked it up and forgot about the the hole in the bottom of flower pots...it fell right out of the hole and stabbed my foot! ye--ouch! so now it's all bruisey and still hurts a bit.
this is the face i get when i ask blake to smile these days...what a ham!

Yay for motherhood :)
Your toes are SO cute, btw.
In my head I can hear what you sound like when we say "Go to bed Ethan!" ;) And I miss you.
Our girls are in bed at 7:30pm and most nights I feel like we know what we are doing. However there are many a nights that Addysen comes out of her room saying she just can't sleep or I can hear the girls chatting at about 9! Craziness!
Sorry about your foot!
I cringe when I hear the word "exacto knife". Makes my poor finger hurt just thinking about it! Glad you still have all your toes!
I am glad there were no stitches with the knife incident. Bruises are yucky too though! The bed thing. . . AHHHH! Some nights I go to bed and they don't and some nights they go to bed and I don't. We NEVER go to bed all at once at the same time. Crazy. Miss you lady!
Ouch! Glad it is something that will heal quickly. Our kids go to bed at 8pm and go down easy but since we moved Gabi has been coming into our bed in the middle of the night. Most nights we are both too passed out to even notice she is there till the morning! LOL.
