Friday, January 6th 2012 - Brian's out of town this weekend so I'm home alone with the kids. Depending on what I watch on TV before I go to bed, I can be quite the chicken about being home alone. Well I thought I was doing good till my stereo system decided to freak out and blare static over our surround system right before I headed to bed. Needless to say my heart was pounding. I tried to pull myself together and go to sleep, but my mind started freaking out about loud noises. I decided to go drag the girls into my bed so I wouldn't have to sleep alone. I woke up Riley first and told her she could come sleep in my bed tonight. I thought she would be excited. Nope, she just looked at me and said "No Mom. I'm too tired. I'll come lay with you when I wake up." OMG! I can't believe she shot me down. Arg! I knew I couldn't just take Reagan to my room because I didn't want to leave Riley by herself so I started to head back to my room, but I really didn't think I could sleep alone, so I tried again. Once again Riley shot me down saying she was too tired. I was just about to head to bed defeated, but I really didn't think I could sleep alone so I tried one last time with the promise that I would carry her to my room. She agreed! Reagan took two seconds to convince to come have a sleepover with us. Having my girls in my room I slept like a baby ... surrounded by my babies ... although evidently I'm the biggest baby of them all. : )

Silly Saturdays - Mom's a Big Chicken!
Another new feature of 2012! Silly Saturdays is a place where I can highlight the funny things that happened during the week. A couple years ago I started journals for each of the girls where I wrote all the funny things they said or did. It's so fun to look back on those hilarious moments Unfortunately I didn't keep up with them and I wish I had. As a way to revive that documentation and to remember these precious moments I'm starting up Silly Saturdays. Hope you enjoy and find these moments as comical as I do.
