Sasha, the night owl

Here is sweet Sasha at Easter. She loves to keep her sister awake at night, and since Gretta has to go to school she needs her sleep. After the warnings, night light (fish tank) out, doors closed, the final threat is Sasha being taken out of the room until Gretta is asleep. Sasha really doesn't care if she is moved or not.
Here she is after being moved to my bed. She fell asleep in this crazy position. My guess is that she was playing and accidentally feel asleep instead. Vaughn uses a slightly different tactic than I do. He has Sasha sit on the washing machine until Gretta falls asleep. It is not a dark or scary punishment. We leave the garage door open and the light on. She doesn't mind it at all. However, the other night she got tired of waiting for Gretta so she took matters into her own hands. When we went to check on her, we found this.
Sasha had made a bed out of a box and the dirty laundry. Nice...Does this make us bad parents?

At least she covered it all with a blanket. She must have been pretty comfortable because she did not wake up when we moved her to her real bed.

That is hilarious! I love how kids move around when they are asleep. They are all over the place. Can you imagine adults sleeping like that? I don't think that Scott would be very happy about that.

Just a note: My good long time friend Elizabeth is getting married this summer! Yay!

Hey ya'll,

I've been messing around with the colors of stuff cuz I know Tina is super busy now that she's all cool and selling stuff...whatever...:) Let me know if it bugs. Tina, I did notice that in the Edit Layout of Wild Mt. when you are changing stuff the titles are gray compared to Wild Mt. foods they are black. Hmmmm.

O-m-gosh, Stephanie! She is so innovative. Her sleeping habits are like mine; the minute I get super tired, I'm out...wherever I am. p.s. That first photo looks exactly like your little-girl photos. What a cutie! p.s.s. Congratulations, Elizabeth. I'm so excited for her!

I think she looks like me in the top picture too. It's strange to see yourself in your kids. Congrats to Elizabeth too.
