Our Backwards "Sleepover"

Lately, sleep has become a precious commodity at our house. Jaxson is going through a phase where he consistently wakes up before 6:00. This wouldn't be so bad, except Aynsley recently decided that she misses us too much and would rather not sleep through the night. Getting up multiple times through the night and then having an early wake-up call would make anyone tired, but then add to it that both kiddos have not been taking the best naps lately due to some remodeling we have going on at the house right now, and you get two grumpy kids and one tired mom.

So, I decided that we would stay in our pajamas this morning and have a "sleepover" day...just in reverse.

We started our day by making some chocolate chip waffles...yum!


Our "sleepover" continued when it was time for lunch. We had pizza picnic-style while watching Madagascar. Jaxson didn't quite get the concept that he was supposed to eat lunch on the floor, and I ended up having to put him in his highchair anyway, but it was a nice try.



Aynsley was just happy to be there. Don't you love her crazy hair? As her hair is getting longer, it is starting to get a little curl to it. After her bath, it kind of dried a little wonky. :)


After lunch, it was time for the sleepover part...nap time!

Lisa, you are adorable. I think backward sleepovers need to happen at my house too :)
