Musical Beds

      We started last night off great with everyone in their own beds and about 20 minutes later the game began. The game is musical beds. Unlike musical chairs there is no prize to be won except a full nights sleep but that's just a distant memory from over 3 years ago. There is no musical to scramble to unless you count screams from night terrors.  Thankfully these nights are not the norm around here anymore but they once were and they reared their ugly head last night.  The night went something like this:

• Everyone in their own beds
• Mike downstairs in bed with Camden
• Mike back in our bed
• Mike in Camden's bed
• Mike in our bed
• Mike and Camden in our bed with me
• Harmony and I on her floor
• Harmony on her floor and Mommy back in bed with the boys
• Harmony back in her crib and mommy back in bed with the boys
• Mike on the couch, Camden and mommy in my bed
• Mommy in between Harmony and Camden mushed in my own bed while Mike gets a glorious nights rest on the couch.

There you have it.  That's what my night looked like, jealous aren't you? One day my children will sleep and that day will prprobably be when they are teenagers.  I am going to insist on crawling into their bed in the middle of  the night, waking them at ridiculous hours and making infinite requests for glasses of water.  They will most likely declare me insane and have me committed.  Funny how we put up with it from them because they are cute and sweet and ours!
