Last night, after our trip, I was exhausted. So Kiir went up to bed ~10ish (maybe 10:30?).

DK followed her about 30 minutes later. And by that, I mean he went over to the gate when I was going to the kitchen for something, and then started climbing the stairs :o So, I tossed a pair of pants on him and took him up. I came back down to do a few things (yesterday’s post, for instance) and wait for the dryer to cycle, take K out etc.

K actually was having none of that. I think that’s b/c it was raining. But thats OK, about 11:15ish, DK is up and happy and crawling all around on the bed. So I went up, rescued Kiir and brought DK back downstairs. We sat down and started playing Lost Odyssey some more. It’s actually basically a nighttime routine that I play some video game while he sits on my lap and eventually passes out. Then I wait for Kiir to come down and get him, b/c there’s no chance in hell that I can move him upstairs without waking him. Lets start with how I open the gate (needs a committed hand, he takes two), and end with I’ve been sitting cross legged with a baby laying across my lap for an hour so my feet are so numb that i can’t put weight on them :o

Luckily, I’d thought ahead when he started to fall asleep and shifted so my legs weren’t under him. Even more lucky, he was willing to stand for it. Because Kiir was asleep, so not coming to get him :o Got him upstairs about 12:15 and settled, then K and I came to pack up and shutdown, and switch the laundry since it was ready now obviously.

Get up, kiir’s got a Gatorade in her hand next to his bottle of water, and they’re both asleep. I change, lay down and holy crap! her bottle tipped and it turns out there was no lid. I don’t know for sure how much got poured on the bed, but it looked like a fair amount. I hopped up and started griping as I got a towel to put on the bed, she tells me that she wants me to sleep upstairs, she likes me in the bed. I politely (shut up) informed her that I wasn’t sleeping in an inch of gatorade, took my blanket and went to sleep on the sofa. After putting another towel down to make sure DK didn’t roll over into a pool of gatorade …

Surprisingly, having 5 or 6 oz of poured down your back at 12:30 in the morning, not that conducive to sleeping.
