Chewlee's Sleepover Day Two....

I really love to have Chewlee for a sleepover except she insists on making herself a bed on the floor of my computer room so she can be with me even when she falls asleep.  Lots of time, she wants me to sleep on the floor with her.  But I resist...most of the time...because I don't do floors well.  LOL!  Instead, I sleep in my recliner.  Sometimes, in the middle of the night, she will crawl into the recliner with me.  It's so sweet, even if it is a bit uncomfortable.

But you wouldn't believe the stuff she brings with her when she comes.  Stuffed animals, tub toys, her artists box that's full of things like markers, crayons, colored pencils, chalks....all things for the creative!  She did bring a change of clothes but no pajamas.  So tonight she is wearing one of my t-shirts as a nightgown.  I didn't want her to wear her clothes to sleep in.  

 My granddaughter, Sheepie, came over to spend some time with us.  Since she knew Chewlee was here, she brought over her curling iron to curl Chewlee's hair so the Beast would take some pictures.  Of course, she texted the Princess so the next thing I knew, the Princess and Gunner were here, too.  The whole bunch of them went out to take pictures and some of them I really love.  I'm going to post some of them tomorrow since the Beast was too mindblown after taking the pictures and then printing up the ones that everyone wanted.  Gunner is a natural for pictures.  He is so sweet and has the cutest smile.  Chewlee was in a good mood for pictures so she turned out well, too.  She felt glamorous.  LOL!

I didn't have a tough time getting Chewlee to sleep last night.  She is normally in bed by 8pm at the latest on school nights.  But tonight she has been fighting going to sleep and her mother plans on picking her up at 7:30am.  I keep reminding her of that because she loves her sleep and will be cranky if she doesn't have enough sleep when her mother wakes her up.

They are going to church, I believe and then home to decorate their tree.  They were going to do it today but Chewlee insisted she wanted to stay here.  It really was a beautiful day today.  Temperature was 61 and it was nice and sunny out.  I wish I could have appreciated it more but I had a touch of IBS.....again.  It makes for a miserable day for me.

It cracked me up that Chewlee and Sheepie went shopping with the Beast at our new Publix and came home with a huge jar of pickles.  They are both pickle addicts so there will be some here for them for the next couple of weeks, at least.  LOL!  There is no way the Beast and I will be able to use up a gallon jar of dill pickles.  Neither one of us is a big fan.  But the Beast did bring home some matzo ball soup mix so I think I will make some tomorrow and then maybe next Saturday when/if Sheepie comes over.  I'll wait and make it while she is here so she knows how it's all made.  She had asked some questions about it so I know she's curious.

Love you all.  Stay warm and dry.  Oh, talked to Mustachio briefly tonight.  He volunteered to work for Thanksgiving.  He says it's double time and a half for him so it's great money.  When he heard we were having our Thanksgiving on Saturday, he checked his schedule but he has to work on Saturday.  Otherwise, he would have come down to be with us all.  I'm sorry he can't make it.  Hope you all have plans to spend the day with family and/or friends.  ***Hugs***
