Sometimes Jenna and Noah have "mini" sleepovers. What is a "mini" sleepover you ask? Well, now that the kiddos are older and on great routines we adults get to have some adult fun (easy folks :) after they go to bed. From time to time we play games after the kiddos go nighty night, but this requires one of them to go to bed at the others house. We just set up a pack n play and then transfer a little one at the end of our evening. It works out quite well and then we get our "date nights"-they're just at one of our homes, and usually we're in sweats, with lots of laughing, and most always dessert (duh).
Twice now we have played Puerto Rico (a strategy game involving way too many pieces). It's actually quite fun, but averages about 2.5 hours to play. Jaime and Jared are such good sports because just when we get comfortable playing a game that we've all learned, Justin wants to teach us a new one. We had been playing Settler's of Catan, but that is now accumulating dust (and taking up precious space) in our closet. Both games are fun! Sometimes we just play some cards, but lately it's been more strategy-based games. Wonder why we don't watch movies??? We would, without a doubt, fall fast asleep (we have little ones ya know). Anyways, I'm rambling, and I don't even have pictures of this fun business, but I do however have pictures of a recent playdate/"mini" sleepover where I watched Jenna while her parents went to a meeting.
He is often in awe of her and always wants to do what she is doing. It is so cute and it just melts my heart.

Mmm...I wonder who had to clean up the mess after they went to bed?
Noah really likes this book, but he REALLY likes to grab at faces.
Hey kiddos!
