Last night Stuart had the idea of setting up a tent in our living room. I didn't think it was the best idea at first, but guess what? IT WAS THE BEST IDEA EVER.
Frankie was trying to destroy it the entire time he was assembling it and I was trying to ward her off, but once it was finally up and our air mattress was in and blown up it was awesome.
They bounced around Stuart and me while we lay inside (me SO tired and SO bloated. At night time i look about 5 months pregnant.) and they were being hilarious. Joey kept saying he was a flying cat and doing somersaults and Frankie was just being cute. They both couldn't stop laughing.
Around 8:45, we calmed them down with a bible story and then brushed their teeth and put PJ's on.
Stu positioned the tent so it was in front of the TV, and then we brought in blankets, turned off all the lights, and watched half an hour of 'Cars'.
When we turned it off and it was time to for Joey to go to bed for real (9:30) he said in the dark with sparkling eyes, "This is the best day of my whole life." OH. MY. GOSH. What a special moment!
WAHH.
It was so sweet. I wanna take the kids camping SO bad for real, but I don't think it will happen any time soon. By the time summer comes, we'll have a new baby! Maybe in a few years :)
