i wanted the experiment to fail.....

today we experimented with no nap for ben. he's been staying up later and later and waking up earlier and earlier. ie....TO LATE AND TOO EARLY! so today i let him forgo his nap in lieu of snacks and really what ever he wanted to do this afternoon. i didn't even make him stay in his room b/c i had a feeling he'd fall asleep. so he stayed up. played happy all afternoon. i have been fearing this experiment. but it really was ok. lyle took a late afternoon nap so ben and i had some one on one time, made pretend dinner, played in the tub (just ben!). i felt we really had a connection. i think i am falling in love with him. he got a little crabby at 6:30 and was ASLEEP at 7:00. serious business.

so.....it's nice having all little people asleep at a decent hour. so far i have made two mac photo books, eaten dinner, sewn a few crafts and....blogged. whatever will i do with all this time at night?!?!

ps. a PRIZE for who ever can identify all the horrible bachelor references in this e-mail. i admit. i am totally watching this season and not proud of it. i am just a sucker for love. no matter how annoying it is.

pss....this contest is really just a way for me to see if i have any readers. please post a comment....readers. :)
