The things we do....

for our kids! Last night when we put Zander down to bed, we were amazed that he didn't make a fuss at all. An hour or so later when we were getting ready for bed, DH (dear hubby) decided to check on him to make sure that he was actually in bed. Once in the room, he felt that Zander was sleeping awkwardly so he moved him a bit and covered him up with a blanket. (what a sweet daddy.) On the way out of the room, instead of stepping over the gate, he accidentally kicked it down, scaring the heck out of Grace and I, (we were on the rocking chair in her room, feeding time!) and of course, waking up Zander. It took him about half an hour or more to finally go back to sleep. Now because of the way that our house is laid out, DH and I have the smallest bedroom in the house. We took the small room because it is closest to the back door and DH can leave for work through that door. For some reason, the last few weeks, he has been using the door closest to the kids bedroom. (WT???) It hasn't been an issue until now. This morning, Zander heard Daddy leave for work and woke up but managed to stay quiet and I think slept a bit longer. When Grace work me up at six this morning to eat, I thought he was asleep but after I left her room and crawled back into bed, I could hear him over the monitor. I figured he would go back to bed but by seven he was standing at the gate screaming his head off. Good thing Grace slept through all that noise! So today, I feel like I've had a full day and it's only 2:30-ish. Oh and one other "cherry" to top off the dae... We did a trip to Walmart today to pick up a harness for walking Zander (LOL) and some stuff to go along with his "school" stuff and when I got back out to the car, it would not start! And we just go the stupid thing back from the mechanic... It seems like it is the battery, and hopefully that is all it is, although if it was something that meant we'd have to get a new vehicle, I wouldn't be too upset. ;)
