10:45pm and still awake


So, when I was in Argentina, Laci my sis-in-law who so kindly watched my two little rascals would post often so I could keep sane being a world apart from them. One thing I loved reading was all the funny things Rae would say...so off the board yet so right on in her little crazy world. They always made me laugh out loud and I continue laughing out loud every day at her and her hilarious comments...so now...I'm going to post them. Rae moments here they come: Got the kids bathed and in bed by 8:30pm but low and behold and no surprise to anyone that knows Rae...she is still awake having Shawn and I cater to her every need and desire just trying to get her happy enough, comfortable enough, full enough, safe enough, cozy enough, warm enough, cool enough TO SLEEP for cryin' out loud...and it's 10:30 now as Shawn and I are catching up on life with the limited time we have together and Rae continues to interrupt with...'I'm hungry' or 'my water is gone' or 'are you just going to be just right there?' or 'my hands are sweaty'! NO JOKE...she has said each of these tonight. So last straw I went in and told her no more. I'm putting a new DVD in for her to doze to and as I am switching the DVD's (because she has obviously already gone through a whole one) she's kissing up and apologizing with 'I'm soo soo sorry mom that it doesn't work when I don't go to sleep' and as I lean in to give her one more kiss, she says 'oh mom, I love that on your head...that bra on your head'. Now, I'm laughing right now out loud and did when she said it cause what may look to her like a bra strap is actually my head band and I couldn't contain myself. She just laughed along and somehow realized what I was laughing at and asked what the bra was on my head and I corrected her...a headband. Oh she is a fun one. Next Rae moment won't be quite as detailed...just the quote I promise:)
