Ever since Brady had his 1st sleepover with Carac (because Connor was sick), Connor has been asking when he could have his 1st sleepover. Brady, of course, also wanted a sleepover at a different friend's so we compromised and made arrangements with Mimi. We finally made the arrangements for March 13th...it was torture for them to have to wait until that date arrived. We were asked daily for the countdown.
We dropped the boys off for their sleepovers and we took advantage of the opportunity to spend some time together and sleep in the next day. Connor and Carac had fun playing the Wii, legos, and the drums. They fell asleep about 9 pm and no nighttime calls...in fact, Connor said that we knew he was going to sleep so he didn't need to tell us goodnight. You can judge the success of a sleepover by how hard it is for the child to leave the next day. Brady really enjoyed his one-on-one time with Mimi and Papa also and I am sure talked their heads off.
On Sunday, my boys announced they are forming a rock band...Connor on drums, Brady on keyboard, and Carac on guitar. We have been invited to be the audience at the concert once they can get together and practice some more. I believe this is a strategy for future playdates and sleepovers...
