elek.bed.sleeping
keenan.wrapped in blankets.sleeping
camden.bed.sleeping
hmmm
bed check again.
keenan not in blankets
keenan!
yes?
walk into MY room
feet in cold water
dog is not at the house
turn on light.
Keenan. Sleep walking. Fully ASLEEP. PEED on my FLOOR! and I'm STANDING in it!!
Yes, my kids are known to sleep walk at times. Usually they look awake. the older they get the less it happens. Usually they just end up by my bed trying to tell me something they are dreaming about and I guide them back to bed.
Keenan must have been talking to me in his dream. He just kept saying "I really have to get it" whenever I asked what was going on. It didn't take long to realize he was totally asleep and thought he had peed in the toilet.
As gross as it was that I was standing in pee-it was so funny at the same time. In one of those "I can't believe this just happened" kind of ways.
I had to change my cloths and clean my feet really well. I just kept thinking there was pee all over me! And yes, he really had to go.
A lot.

Even for a Birthday...
...there will be green...
Camden wakes up, birthday morning, and finds his presents. Look at that sweet little morning face:)
Since green has been Camden's theme this year, we did a green themed birthday celebration!
He wore a green shirt and had a green dinner with all green table ware. He was in green heaven!
He's so pleased with his green cake:) It was a little weird not to decorate the cake up with some character, but green was all he wanted.
All out on the first try. He looks so old!
Checking out the goods with the boys!
Your one Happy Three year old. In-between all those ornery-three moments!
You've loved green all year long - much to my surprise. The other kids in nursery have started to have a fascination with green too, I guess they think It must be cool if you keep wanting it each week!
You love your nursery teacher and she indulges you in your love of green by giving you green balloons, play dough, crayons and toys.
You recently decided it was okay to color and that you really like to do it! You'll spend long amounts of time coloring flash cards and pictures.
You don't like to draw your own pictures though. You think you should be able to dictate to someone what you want, have them draw it then you color it.
You love when "your boys" come home from school and miss them all day when they are gone.
You like to go places, but as soon as we are in the van you want to go back to "my house." You don't mean our families house or my house but Your house!
You like to watch little bits of tv or movies. Once you've watched what you've deemed important you get up and turn it off-this really annoys your brothers!
You try to get out of a nap by telling me, "It's not dark outside!" I'm not sure how this ever came about, but you really think it is sound reasoning not to take a nap.
You love to give me four kisses at night. One on my right cheek, left cheek, forehead then chin. In that order and good solid kisses or you have to start over. Then you end with a "squeezy hug."

A mirror that just keeps coming to me
When we bought our first house, we had no bedroom furniture. We had a new futon bed that we loved. It was ours and we bought it together-it worked for us. Moving day was Crazy! I was at the old house directing and cleaning as we would fill a truck and send it up. You can imagine my Surprise when I went to the new house and everything was everywhere! As I walked through the very box filled new house moving boxes around as I went, I ended up in the master bedroom....where I found a bedroom set? My in-laws were surprised we didn't have a real-bed or dressers or night stands. So they gave us their very first bedroom set from when they were first married. It was very nice and thoughtful of them. It was 32 yrs old. The bed post arc-ed in a "falling over our head" kind of a way. And the wood floors did nothing to help us out in the sliding of the post. But there was an Amazing, big, wooden dresser mirror! I went to work painting the whole set white. It was lots better.
Several years later we moved across country. There was no room in the moving truck for the bedroom set. The whole set was left behind to be put on the curb for spring clean up (it was on its very last leg). The bed post had come off the frame and was thrown out earlier and the drawers were barely holding together.
Three years later we moved back to the area -the same house even. We were helping the in laws remodel there gigantic basement. I've often said things get lost in there... Walking through one day I was shocked to find the very same mirror from years earlier! After getting Shaun to drag this very heavy mirror upstairs-I took it home -only the mirror :) -with a plan....
To paint it Black and put it here:)
It once seemed so big now it almost seems small up in that big space. But I really do love it here. And I love that this mirror has found me again!
The dressers found me too...they were in a work shed -I thought the dash of white really lightened the place up:)

A crafty baby gift
My in-laws just had their 19th grandbaby! I wanted to make a "personal" gift. So, when I saw Mom enving this car seat cover - I thought it would be the perfect gift!
There is also that cute little diaper bag at the bottom.

It even snaps shut-to keep those diapers nice and clean:)
It's reversable...
And it will completly cover baby girl from wind and anything elts.

Schools in
My two big boys are at school today.
They both met their teachers yesterday.
Elek was so serious with his new teacher.
Keenan was completely oblivious to his.
Elek spent the day telling keenan of all the rules and play areas for his class.
Elek had the same teacher last year.
Keenan got a welcome to school bag with a big play dough and big skittles.
Elek got a pencil.
Elek wasn't impressed.
He was happy that he could put the pencil in a pencil pocket inside another pocket in his backpack:)
I spent the day before school prepping my almost three yr old that he would be staying home.
Camden looks adorable in his hand-me-down batman backpack he insist on wearing to the bus stop.
Camden and I had back to school donuts and I opted-out of exercising
That cute little boy and I were on a hunt for school shoes for the big boys
Two big cookies and a donut later we had groceries and shoes
Camden thinks his donut was "elitious" (code for delicious!)
His cookies were "higantic" and "amazing"
Those two big boys of mine are on their way home now....
I think we may have an early bed time after much talking over the big day.....
