Side note: can I please still use y'all? It's a lovely word and I hope southerners will allow me the privilege.
Friday night we went to cousin Ben's basketball game. Then Chris and Lilli showed up. They always bring the energy level up a few notches. Eli normally goes to bed around 8:15/8:30. He finally fell asleep at 11pm. Yikes.
Saturday night we had a little mini K Christmas which involved yummy food, final advent reading, and gifts. Extravagant gifts, really. Eli got lovely, fun things and a train set. Much, much joy was had with that in the time after by Eli and Lilli and especially Uncle Chris. It was another late night, of course, and in the morning Eli chose to play with his train over eating breakfast first.
Today the kids and I hopped in the truck with my in-laws to head to Buffalo where we will spend time with the Greats until Tuesday when Greg will pick us up and keep going to MN. Eli just fell asleep in the last ten minutes, past ten o'clock. Yet another late night after a day of family fun!
Hopefully all this mismatched scheduling, apple crisp for dinner (parenting fail), and extra attention doesn't completely spoil the kid!
