Sleep Over Party

Declan had a sleep over last night. Chelsey in her crib and Declan in a playpen they slept in the same room again last night. 8pm bedtime, Chelsey was asleep right away but our little Declan was babbling on for an hour and 40 minutes! Thankfully he didn't keep his friend awake all night.

Then came 7am and somebody woke up and started chatting.

That would be my little guy.

This time he woke her up.

Daniella came into our room at 7:30 to tell us that he'd been awake since 7am. I started throwing on some clothes so I could go get him when Daniella walked into our room with Declan on one hand and Chelsey on the other. Both were all smiles. Apparently Daniella got Declan out of the playpen first, then got Chelsey out of her crib. Chelsey then proceeded to tackle/bear hug Declan.

They're the cutest.

Then Declan ran around and played before all the little ones sat in for cinnamon waffles for breakfast. A fun weekend for everyone.

In the afternoon we visited with Auntie T and Madison. Madison got some overdue hugs, Declan tried to resists the urge to put a booger on Auntie T's laptop and when it was time for Goodbye Declan gave Auntie T a clear "see ya".

This evening we decorated our Christmas tree. The hardest but best time decorating a tree I've ever had. Declan loves the lights. He was trying to be helpful. He REALLY liked the bead garland. He was NOT helpful with them but rather kept trying to take them back from me. He loved the glittery round ornaments but he'd rather play with them than decorate. He modeled a fuzzy Santa hat and gave us Christmas cuddles before heading off to bed.
