A happy baby makes a happy mommy


oh last night was much better. i somehow managed to bathe both kids and had kathryn in bed by 8:30, and daniel asleep and in bed by 9. i made a pork roast for dinner last night, and corn on the cob, and kathryn tried out the corn for the first time. she didn't eat much but it was fun watching her try something new. she ate a good bit of dinner, so john asked if he could make her a "kiddie" cone (the kiddie cones are small) so i agreed as long as she was in her highchair. in about 20 mins, i noticed this:

poor kathryn. she hadn't had a nap (those are becoming harder and harder to get out of her, and more of a hassle, besides, she goes to sleep on time without one! and goes without a struggle. lol.) and at 7:30, she pooped out, but she was covered in ice cream so i woke her up threw her in the tub and tossed her in bed. she was so good for me when daniel wasn't. it's nice when it works out that way. 

i got to have about 2 hours of play time after the kiddos went to sleep and then i pooped out myself, and no crying was heard until kathryn started beating on her door at 7am. i'll take that over last night! it's always a plus to start out good. 

i have 4 major chores to do today, and i told john to pick two...i gave him his choice! how nice is that. lol. so we'll see just what gets done.

What sweet babies. The play time part made me smile. Having a couple of hours free of crying babies in the evening is always nice!

I'm glad things are going better. It is always so funny when the kiddos fall asleep in the highchair. I think Kailey only did it once, but I have seen Allison do it on more than one occasion; each time equally funny.
