Sleep, sweet sleep!

This morning, both babies finally slept until 7:00 am. We have been struggling with getting them to sleep in a little on the weekends. They usually wake up a litte before 6:00 am on the weekdays, but that is OK because they have to get up around 6:30 anyway to get ready for the big commute to O-Town in the mornings. Well, rising at 5:50 am the weekends was giving me some pretty unpleasant thoughts about summer mornings that will be here very soon. This morning, they both finally slept. But, alas, guess who WAS up at 5:50 am? That would be me. I caught up on the latest episode of The Tudors and ate my breakfast in peace. Not all bad, I guess.

Yesterday, the yard sale we had in our neighborhood went just great! I was able to make some mad money that I plan to spend getting some fun stuff for our patio. It is a very poorly used space at our house because the air/heat unit is there. You can't really talk to someone if you are sitting out there and it comes on. So, basically, during the summer, you can't talk to anyone because the air runs 24/7. I don't really care anymore, though. I sold our old broken grill at the yard sale, so it is time for our new grill and some new furniture, and a few pots of pretty flowers. I plan to get the babies a little pool to splash around in this summer, so we will be spending at least part of the day outside playing. Does anyone know any good baby sunscreen to use? What I have been using is SUPER greasy, and I think it annoys them a bit.


Ok, one last bit of randomness. I took a pictures of SF's legs in the high chair the other day because I just love them! I call them Davidson legs because they are just like legs that can be found on several members of my family on my Mama's side (including mine). It reminded me of an ultrasound picture of her legs. Notice the legs and the toe position. Aren't ultrasounds amazing?? (You can see Rush's butt and legs in the side of the picture, too.)

I read on someone else's blog that banana boat has a quick dry sunscreen for kids that isn't greasy. I couldn't find it at Target though, and you know how I feel about Walmart:)

I had to use Eucerin sunblock on Zack b/c of his sensitive skin. But I think Neutrogena makes a good one...

LOVED catching up and LOVE LOVE the pics of her sweet little legs!!

I use Coppertone continuous spray for babies. I love it because it is so easy. I hope we can set up a playdate this summer!
