Our Day

Tanzi didn't have as good of a night, but it wasn't terrible.

She woke up at 1:45 and then again at 5:15 and then slept until after 8.

Lately Kyri and Gray have been getting up SO early!! Well, actually, Kyri gets up early and wakes Gray up so they can play.

This is both good and bad.

The good thing is that they play in their room and in the play room and let me keep sleeping. The bad thing is that it's too early and they are both still tired and grumpy and they (mostly Gray) cry and fuss A LOT.....ALL morning!!

How do I know that it's Kyri that wakes up so early? Because if Graysen wakes up first he does NOT wake his sister up, he just comes into my room and snuggles me.

LOVE it!!

This morning Graysen woke up around 7 and came to snuggle me. We both even went back to sleep!! I could never share my bed with my child all night long, but I LOVE a good LITTLE sleep while snuggling. LOVE!!

Kyri woke up around 7:30. She snuggled me for a minute too, but it wasn't long before I heard, "Gray, do you want to go into the playroom with me?"

Graysen, "Wes!"

While Graysen was sleeping Kyri wanted to do her workbooks. I'm SO glad that I don't ever have to ask her, it's just something she wants to do!

Kyri also LOVES to chew gum while Graysen is napping. I only let her do it when he's asleep because otherwise he wants some too and he just puts it in his mouth and swallows it! We never even gave Kyri gum before, but recently her Primary teacher gave her some and now she asks for it EVERY day!

Thanks, Sister Smith!

She is really good about it, though, and always spits it "in a garbage with a bag in it" when she's done...so far.

Gary came home from his camp out just after noon. Then, when Graysen woke up we had family haircut time!

Graysen first, then Kyri, then Gary, then me....that's always our order.

After cutting my hair I got in the shower and when I got out and was getting dressed I could hear Kyri crying. I walked into my bedroom and Gary was asleep with football on TV, of course. Graysen was in the playroom doing puzzles. Kyri was in her room and the door was locked (we have it so it locks on the outside). I opened the door and said, "Are you in time out?"

Kyri, "No!" Me, "Then why are you locked in here?" Kyri, "Graysen locked me in!!" Me, "Have you been in here for a long time?" (I DO take long, hot showers!) Kyri, "I don't know!!" Me, "Graysen?" Gray, "Me doing puzzles!!"

Yep, he locked his sister in her room and left her there....indefinitely.

This afternoon Gary took Kyri and Graysen with him to a YW/YM car wash fund raiser. I took Tanzi to the store. She fussed the whole time! She's better when Kyri is in the back of the cart pestering her, apparently.

After they got home Gary told me he would clean the whole house...while he watched football.

Fine by me :)

Oh,I forgot a funny story from yesterday.

I was letting the kids watch a show while I was in the shower. Shortly after I got in Kyri came in the bathroom crying. (our master bath does not have a lock...sad, I know!) She was really sad because Graysen turned the TV off right in the middle of her show!!! How dare he?! After I got out this was still an issue. I came into the bedroom and Kyri was still crying and Graysen was holding the remote. Then I hear him say in the SWEETEST voice, "It over, seetheart!!"

Haha...yes, I call my girls sweetheart all the time.

Oh the things they pick up on!!
