Sleep Habits

Every night before Robert and I go to bed we check on all the kids to make sure no one is going to fall off the bed or suffocate or anything. And I swear, every night they are in the most bizarre positions. So I decided to document them. These were taken over three consecutive days and I was standing in the same spot every night. I don't know how they ever get any sleep. And how do we not have more falling off the bed incidents?!

He apparently found a sippy cup somewhere and decided to spill it all over his bed. And then lay right on top of it.

Under her is her comforter, pillow, ladybug pillow pet, and puppy.

Crazy kids!

Randomness

*Emily made her first competition dance team! Woohoo! She's so excited. I'm excited too.

*Did anyone watch the show "The Week The Women Went?" I want to go on that show. Mainly just to get a break for a week. But the premise is that all the women over age 18 in the whole town leave for one week and chaos ensues. My favorite line from the first episode was from a dad with two kids. 9 year old son has severe ADHD and has to have his medication very regulated, which his wife always takes care of. Then they have a 7 year old girl and he said "She's a drama queen. And there ain't no medication for that." Haha.

*Michelle Obama is my hero. I just love her. Not even for political reasons. I just think she's an awesome lady.

*During the Olympics I got barely 5 hours of sleep per night. And thanks to Carly it was not consecutive. Ever since they ended on Sunday I've been sick. Lame.

*Is summer over yet? For reals.

The end.

A few months ago we were up at the Capitol to try and take some family pictures. Let's just say it didn't go so well. But I love these ones of each of our kids. They are so true to each of their personalities. Emily is the bubbly happy one. Chase is the more quiet and reserved one. And Carly is well, a baby, but she is always taking everything in. Very observant with her wide eyes. I love these kids!
