Today, Sidney and I picked Cleo up at 10am. The sleepover ended 2 hours earlier than planned. We were fine with the earlier pick up because we missed Cleo. :-)
Cleo got home, had a snack and we played a little. Sidney took a nap and Cleo and I did some homework. I took a nap and Cleo played on my Kindle. Then, she went downstairs and took a nap. When Sidney and I got up from our naps, we could not wake Cleo up. We had to move her a lot and say her name loudly to wake her up. She finally woke up and the three of us went food shopping. We told her she could stay and sleep but she insisted that she wanted to go to Publix with us. She nodded off during the 5 minute drive to the store.
We came home, put the food away, and went outside to the backyard to play ball.
And pose.
And play with sticks.
And cast spells.
And be loving and cute in order to have Mommy wrestle branches from our sad little tree so they'd have sticks to play with.
"Abracadabra, alacazam, I turn you into an invisible witch."
Now the kids are riding Roger's back like he's a horse and wrestling on the floor. For dinner, Roger is making them BBQ chicken drummettes and I am making mini farfalle (bowtie pasta) with an olive oil and garlic sauce. Our vegetable will likely be broccoli, like the Obamas, it's our go-to vegetable. :-)
Cleo had a great time at Jordyn's birthday sleepover. The kids went to bed around 11:30pm and got up around 8am. Cleo informed me that she and another girl stayed up all night and slept for 5 minutes. I know she's exaggerating but seeing how exhausted she is, I know she got a lot less sleep than normal.
Cleo said that she wants to have a sleepover for her birthday. I told her she could. It's a great idea and much cheaper than having it at a location and paying a site fee. Plus, Cleo and her pals will have a blast because it won't be this rushed 1.5 hours of a party. We can let them decorate their own cupcakes, make jewelry, watch movies, and any other activity Cleo chooses. Cleo keeps adding names to the birthday list, including her favorite boy pals from her class. We will have only girls sleep over.
Have a great week!
