Sleepless in Seattle (or Moses Lake)

Okay, so we've been a little out of sorts lately, with me being down with the surgery. Last night, around 6:30 Colton remembers that he has a report on Ben Franklin due this morning! Now, he has started on it, but is not finished. He hadn't studied his spelling words at all. I don't think he'd even looked at them. Oh, and his math homework wasn't quite done either! These are things that I'm usually on top of. So, I knew we were in for ANOTHER late night! We got the girls to bed, and Colton finished math, and went over his spelling. Around 8:30 I layed down, and fell asleep! I missed Survivor, and The Apprentice. Thank heavens for my DVR!

Sometime in the middle of the night, Kennedy came in with a bad dream. Now, I haven't been upstairs since my surgery because it KILLS my back. So, Landon takes her back to bed. A few minutes later, she's back and just sort of wandering around our room. I hear her leave, and then she's just whimpering on the stairs! Landon is out like a light. So, I get out of bed, and SLOWLY make my way up the stairs to her. I get her in bed, and she asks me if I'll stay for a little bit. How do I not??

I get her to sleep, and start back down the stairs, where I find Colton sleeping on the landing! It's like 5:30ish, and he had gotten up for the day, and only made it half way down the stairs. So I get him up and back to bed, slither back downstairs and crawl in bed just as Landon's alarm goes off. He informs me that they'd been up until 10:30 finishing Colton's report! Let's just hope that Colton learned his lesson on procrastination, and know that we'll all be in bed by 7pm tonight
