what a weekend!

First lets start with the beds...

Laci is doing WONDERFULLY! She is sleeping better than ever before, only waking maybe once and sleeping til 8-9am every day!!! She has trouble falling asleep because she is too excited over all the lace and frills, but once she is out she is out! Topher on the otherhand...sigh...this is hard. For the first 3 nights it was an all night struggle, with screaming, spanking, sneaking into our bed, and him eventually sleeping on our floor for the night. We tried bribing with toys, trips, reading books, tv on, everything...nothing worked, Then yesterday evening he liet us know he is scared of his new bedding (pirates of the carribean) because there are skulls and skelletons on it. So we made a game about if he could sleep in his bed for 5 nights we would go to chuck e cheese on saturday. We also changed his bed into the old bedding of sesame street and spiderman. We then made the game of "noooo...i dont think you can sleep in your bed, i think we wont worry about chuck e cheese" and so on...til he was determined to sleep in his bed! Then he actually fell asleep in his bed!!! Then he slept with only getting up twice and actually going to his own bed again!!! So I am ccrossing my fingers that we may have fixed the issue!!! PLEASE let this be it now!!!

As far as the rest of the weekend goes, We had THREE showings yesterday!!! It was crazy!! I am hoping that maybe one of them liked the house. My neighbor says that one group was here for a LONG time, they actually went to the store and came back and they were still here!! Man, selling our house soon would be OH so sweet!!! :)

We also got a nice swingset for free of craigslist and set it up at the bottom of the hill and both the kids LOVE it!! Its really nice with a wave slide, and a fort, and 2 swings and monkey bars and its all treated wood!! Very very nice...especially for FREE!!! Woopie!!!

So today I am resting and getting a game plan for the rest of the week going, and working on Laci's invites tonight and getting them sent out tomorrow. I still can'y believe its MARCH already!!!!

Hope you all had a great weekend!

Hi Granddaughter, That's great that things are falling in place for you. I bet the kids are having a blast on the swingset that's nice. I sent Laci's birthday card out a little early...buy something from us for that very special day. I'm glad you have Amanda as a faithful friend on your Four Ps In A Pod....I love reading her comments. ( Hi Amanda)

LOve you all... G & G
