to sensational aunties and to sleeping in

because of one sensational auntie, c and i were able to sleep in this morning. i had almost forgotten how great it feels to just sleep in as long as my body called for it. my body was definitely calling for it and it was pure heaven!! so how did this happen? no, we didn't drug the boys, although i have considered it in the past. *laugh*
aunt jen agreed to watch finn and scout overnight at her place - a first for all of them. since she's watched them on and off since they were born, we were all comfortable with the arrangement. jen is in her 20s and having been there (yes a while ago), i am fully aware there are lots of exciting things she could have been doing on a saturday night. she was kind enough, however, to sacrifice one of her weekend evenings to spend time with her nephews and to give her big sis a much needed respite. i don't think there has been a time since finn's birth that i've been able to sleep in with christopher. it was a rare and wonderful treat - it felt like our pre-kid days. ahhhhhh!!!!!
some events of the night/day: dinner (corn on the cob), movie and popcorn, shooting the rocket launcher toy in backyard, and coloring a giant sealife mural. here are a few fun photos jen took of the boys. oh, i should mention when c and i went to pick them up. they both begged to stay. even in scoutie's simple language, it was clear he was telling me to go. he said 'bye mom' and "not all done".
jen - you are the bestest auntie ever! muchas gracias senorita.
