Jason had his 20 year reunion this weekend so the kids came to our house to spend the night. We pulled the king size mattress to the game room for the kids to sleep on and they were so excited. They just do not know how good they have it... we were lucky to pull up a piece of carpet (hopefully it had been vacuumed in the last week) and have a blanket and were told to sleep tight. Here they were on a plush pillow top in front of a tv watching Tangled and living the good life.
All the Mortons had a late night the night before so we started the process of getting everyone showered and laying down by 7:30. 8:30 we turned off the movie and told everyone to get quite and settle down. Yea right :) By 8:50 all the big kids were asleep and Ben was still going strong. I finally took him into the boys room to lay down with him and thought he would fall asleep fast. Not so much... He laid down and said, "I am not sleeping in here, this is not my room and I'm angry". He then mumbled under his breath some things that I could not understand. I was trying not to laugh so I would not shake the bed. He flipped and flopped and tossed and turned and finally was O U T at 9:20.
At 4:30 I heard crying in the night so I jumped up and ran upstairs before the whole crew woke up and while running up the stairs I heard Ben saying, "I fell, someone help me". I get to his room and he is sitting up on his bed crying. I laid him back down and he was fine and fell right back to sleep. I do not know if he really fell or if he was dreaming. I did not hear a thud...
Justin went and bought some donuts for breakfast and of course finished so they could play the Wii.
