Over MEA break we had planned a weekend trip with my sister and her family to Duluth. This was all Brynn talked about that week. Well, once Thursday came around Darren and I discussed how nice it would be to spend the weekend at home getting projects done. Then Friday came and we pushed out departure time until after naps. I called Kate to let her know we wouldn't be getting there until bed time-ish...the same time she was expected to arrive. Our conversation went from the arrival time to how about we don't go at all! Initially Brynn was really devastated until I told her Cara could have a sleepover in Brynn's room with the newly bought trundle. Sure enough that's all it took! We had two very happy campers! They did fabulous sleeping in the same room that night...however nights since have not been quite so successful and Cara has needed to go back into her room. She is a great rule follower in her own room (can't get out of bed until mom or dad come and get you) but Brynn's talking clock is just too tempting to stay in bed! There's nothing like hearing a man's voice saying ten fifteen P.M. when your kids should have long been alseep!
