Sunday Night

Finally, finally, our head strong boy J has been defeated by his sleepy eyes!! This boy is unbelievable at times!!
So as I signed off last evening after Daddy and Mom Jr. read my entry and now we all remembered it was our anniversary we decided to play Guitar Hero. Jr. and D take their positions with the guitar and bass and Mom Jr. and I were doing something else at the time when all of a sudden we hear Daddy saying "J what did you do?" J comes running out of the room crying to me. Mom Jr. and I now look at each other as we hear Daddy say "He just pulled the wires straight out of the drum pedal!" What? I thought how could he possibly do that? Mom Jr. and I see Daddy walk by with the pedal in one hand and the chord which is suppose to be attached to the pedal in the other hand with exposed wires hanging out of it.
Unbelievable! This boy is one surprise after another. Mom Jr. and I tried to find another one on line, we did find one but we decided to wait and try out our Rock band pedal with Guitar Hero. It worked, we rocked out until we were all exhausted.
Sunday morning comes around, Mom Jr. and I hit the grocery store. When we get back Daddy and the boys are outside washing the windows and screens. J is running back and forth having the best time playing with his "friend". We go about our Sunday doing a little cleaning up, washing clothes for school, preparing items for dinner...
J continues to play in and outside, just having the time of his life!! I'm thinking he is definitely going to fall asleep early tonight!
As we eat dinner we keep checking on him to make sure he's awake, yup sure enough he's wide awake....
"K, Mama I finish my food, now can I have a muffin?" Mom Jr. made cupcakes with chocolate frosting which he had been eyeing.. "In a minute, let your food settle". He does a little whining but then leaves to the other room. It's again very quiet so we peak in, nope still awake!
So they all get a cupcake with milk. The other three are now laying there ready for bed. We say our good nights and off they go.
Daddy and I are watching a show and J comes running in "I not going to bed yet, I not going to bed yet", he is running back and forth like it's in the middle of the day. What is going on?

Daddy says "Okay J I'm going to bed now I have to get up for work", "Oh is Mama going to bed too?" "Yes, we are all going to bed" "Noooo, I not tired I watch Dragon Tales". I came in the room trying to get him to calm down and be quiet before he starts a chain reaction of children waking up and not being able to fall back asleep which will then really turn into a long night for me.
So, here I sit, once again at the computer, trying to keep my eyes open as J finally layed down and started watching his good night shows once more. I look one more time to my left and there J lays completely sprawled out on the floor probably dreaming of his "friends" that keep him company all day long......
Breathe in, breathe out, the weekend has now come to an end. Monday a new day, back to school, Squiggly comes over, time to prepare for soccer practice which begins Tuesday.............

Just a Mom ready to head off to dreamland..............
