Have you ever made a decision to do something at the last minute, then realize it was the BEST idea you ever had? This is what happened at my house this weekend.
Monday I was asked by a friend at work if her son could spend the night, I was more than happy to say yes, since Sean & Logan have so much fun together. But I had said nothing to Logan, it was going to be a surprise. So then I had the idea to ask Chele is Marcos could stay too. WOW....I was planning Logan's first sleep over - and he had no idea. 3 boys over night, we can do this.
We picked Sean up Saturday Morning, went over to moms to help get the apartment more organized. Then we headed to pick up Marcos. We got to the house, got his clothes packed, was heading out the door, and then we hit the Biggest Little Roadblock!
MATTHEW PUT HIS FOOT DOWN!!!! Marcos was not leaving with out him....'Pack him a bag!' So now we have one more....wait do the math 4 boys...2 parents....(who are use to only having 1).....We can do this!
First things first!!! Off to CiCi's fill the bellys!!! We had 4 of the best little men in the world, they all ate really well, and we so polite and well behaved! Home we go, perfect night for outside playtime. The front yard needed mowed, so Ray put the vehicles in the street blocking the driveway, I sprayed bug spray on the kids, and off we went! Riding the bike, scooter, big wheel, running, tree climbing, and balloons mixed with 4 boys a GREAT 2 hours outside. We had told the boys they could play PS3, so here they come Sonic, the bigger boys took turns as instructed, and had no problems. Matthew played all over the house, i made Kool-Aid for them...and Matthew kept asking...'I this my juice?' They had played so hard, we needed popcorn and snacks! They were so wonderful!!!
Movie Time!!!! We made a pallet on the living room floor, put in The Tooth Fairy to try to get the boys settled down. Did I say TRY????? The others were settling pretty good, but little Matthew was not doing to well....he is 3 and this was his first night away from home! So I coaxed him to lay down with me and try to fall....I think the last time I looked at the clock it was 11:00pm or so...Ray stayed up watching the movie with the big kids, and once it was over, he took Matthew and put him with the other boys. So here is it Sunday Morning, Logan is awake, and I have not soon any of the others up yet. But almost 8:00am, and going to start getting things ready to make pancakes!!!! How many should I plan on making to feed these boys...Regular or Chocolate Chip??? So many decisions!!!
This amazing night will be coming to an end soon, and I cant Wait to do it again!!!!
