we've been laying low the past couple of days trying to get over our little colds. we've also been gearing up to swap bedrooms!!! today was a busy day - we moved malloy and rex down into our bedroom and our bedroom in now upstairs where it was originally. yes, you read right, the kids are sharing a room!! they love they're new room and are excited to share...maybe a little too excited! nap time was a disaster. malloy was out of bed most of the time, giving rex toy after toy through the crib bars, singing, yelling at rex to go to sleep... and rex wanted to go to sleep!! we ended up bringing him out into the living room so that malloy could go to sleep and he passed on on neal within 5 minutes. malloy, on the other hand, did not go to sleep. i took her out to run errands with me and she was passed out before we got to the first store. i carried her in the store, got what i needed, and walked to the next store with her snoring on my shoulder. she woke up when i tried setting her in the shopping cart.
tonight, after dinner, malloy was walking around the house talking on her ariel phone. she was talking to ariel, saying "oh definitely, yeah, definitely. i'm definitely talking to you. ok, i'm going to close my eyes and sleep now. bye." she immediately dialed again and said "hi eric. how's ariel? what are you guys doing?" lol, she cracks me up!!! she also told ariel "i'm just drinking beer. " wonderful!!!!
bedtime was better than nap. they giggled for about 10-15 minutes and then i went in. rex had some toys and a book in his crib. i gave malloy a stern talking to and told her it's not ok to get out of bed or to give rex toys. i had to threaten to take her turtle away if she got up again. i didn't hear another peep! phew!!
hopefully they get used to sharing quickly!
