BROTHERS



When I was growing up my little sister and I would have sleepovers with each other. Basically this meant that one of us would sleep in the others bed with them. I've tried to convince my kids that this is a fun idea, only because we want them to share a room. So we always try to get Mack to sleep in Haydens room because he has a queen size bed. But after putting Mack back in Haydens room least 5 times he eventually will climb in his own bed and finally go to sleep. We tried again last night and he actually fell asleep in there. When I went to check on them before I went to bed I noticed that they had fallen asleep with their arms interlocked. Its so nice to see a real peaceful moment between them!

The good ol days of sleepovers!! Not only in each others bed but in the Rabbit (car), the tramp, trailer, the deck, you name it we slept there!!
Remember sleeping in mom and dads bed and acting like we were sleeping but really just watching tv?!!
Cute pictures by the way- if they just knew how much fun it is. Once they do, you are in trouble!!

That is SO cute! There is something about sleeping kids that I just love. Could it be peace and quiet? But look at how sweet their faces are! :)

That is the cutest thing I've ever seen, and about the babysitter thing,when I babysat, I didn't dare have the parents come home without everything looking spotless, what happened? We had a girl baby sit for 2 hours once and paid her $5 and she asked for more! So Kate comes with us a lot just for that reason. So I totally understand what you're saying.
