Wild Child - or children...

Cole and Alexis have been a wee bit WILD this past week. I'm not sure if it's the weather - or the recent visit with all the Trochisnki family - or just the end of the school year. Maybe it's all of the above! Monday night/Tuesday morning the kids did not want to stay in their beds. I think they came up 3 different times. Cole told me he doesn't like being downstairs and so on. When I come out into the living room on Tuesday morning, I find Cole sleeping on the couch. He told me it was so comfy that he was going to sleep there EVERY night! Alexis pulled the same thing the next night, getting up 3 times and finally snuck into bed with mom and dad. Though they have been good in their beds now last night and hopefully again tonight. They forget that Mom's need sleep too!
They are both happy to have the warm weather back and have been back at riding bikes. Alexis decided she was going to wear her new winter boots riding bike. At least they matched. :)
Today we went for a walk with Julie, then they played in the little pool in the driveway for a bit. They also "Helped" mom and Jeanne with the doll project and managed to make a mess all over in the house. But that's really just a normal day.
Tonight at dinner the kids were getting silly (again) and Cole says to me "you can eat a dirty worm mom!" No idea where that came from but it got me laughing pretty hard. Just when you think the craziness of 2 kids, a husband, 3 dogs, a household and everything else may be too much - your adorable 5 year old tells you to go and eat dirty worms! Just makes you step back and remember that being together and laughing is what it's all about.
