Where's the Baby!!!!
Have you ever had the experience when all is silent and you ask "where did the baby go?" This happened to me the other day. I was busy working on the computer and Traysen had been playing right by me. I suddenly realized that it was quiet and I had no idea where he was. I got up and looked in the play room and Ethan's room. Then I run upstairs starting to panic a little. I search all the rooms and no baby. I go down stairs to see if I missed him somewhere down there. As I walk into the family room I see him 2 feet from the computer where I had been working. This is what I found:
He had climbed onto the couch and from the couch to the hope chest and from the hope chest to the chair with the blanket and feel peacefully asleep. What a cutie!

Bed "Underlings"
So Saturday was a long day without Terence. He was coaching softball at an ALL DAY tournament. (He came home sunburned on his forehead and nose.) I decided that we were going to have a cleaning day. I assigned all of the chores:
Ahlea - clean room and toy room
Ethan - clean room and toy room
Mom - kitchen, dinning room, front room, sweep, mop, vacuum, fold laundry, make dinner, and clean bedroom.
At first all they wanted to do was play and complain about how hard their chores were. I finally told them that they had two choices they could do their chores and then play, OR they could sit on the couch and do nothing but sit. Ethan right away decided that he was going to clean so that he could play. Ahlea on the other hand sat on the couch and complained that it wasn't fair that she was forced to sit on the couch and do nothing. Ethan cleaned quickly and quietly and he was done. Ahlea then got really mad because Ethan was playing and she was still sitting on the couch. She finally decided that it might be a better choice to start cleaning. She did great in the toy room, but by the time she got to her room all she wanted to do was shove everything under her bed. When I told her that she had to get everything out from under the bed and put it away, she got mad and yelled "the only reason beds have underlings is to put stuff under it." She did finally finish! I am happy to say that my house is pretty clean right now. If you want to see, you better hurry because the magic lasts only until midnight not a minute more.
