Aunt Lana

So, this weekend my mom had this crazy idea to go to Wendover. She had already told my brother that she would watch his kids. So of course, Friday night at 7:00 p.m. she called and asked if I could watch the kids for her so she could go to Wendover. I told her I would. I like it when she can go and have fun, so I agreed. I started to put the kids down at 9:00 for bed. At 11:15 I finally had both of them asleep. Trey was teething a little bit, so we gave him some Tylenol (he is six months old) Braylon, who is four, fights his head when going to sleep. When he starts to fall asleep he wakes right back up in fear that he may miss out on something really interesting. I didn't care that it took that long to get them to bed, because I love them more than anything and I have so much fun with them. Trey decides to wake up at 3 a.m.....After four restless hours of me sleeping, I wake up instantly as he whines for his binki. Just because I went to sleep at 11:15 with the kids, doesn't mean I slept good. I don't know if anyone has ever slept with a four year old, but for some reason they think that they need to move around ALL NIGHT. He totally thought that the bottom of the bed was right in my side, because that is where his feet were all night long. So my sister-in-law told me that Trey might wake up, but just give him his binki and he will go back to sleep.
Right........How can I resist not picking up the cutest little boy ever! He was so happy when he woke up, just talking, making noises, and laughing. I picked him up, went into the other room and played peek-a-boo and sang to him until 3:30. I couldn't resist! Too much fun.....Anyways, after laying him back down he woke up at 6:00 for a bottle. I threw him in bed with me and fed him. He then fell asleep and both of them woke up about 7:30. I got them dressed, took them to Chick's to get a pancake (I fed Trey his baby food there, and he was such a good boy) and then we came home and took a nap! I have to say that I was really tired the next day, but it was all totally worth it! Besides hanging around in my pajamas and not even worrying about doing my hair or putting make-up on (as you can see in the pictures) I had fun!
