So the other night my niece, Charlotte, came to spend the night with us. OVERNIGHT! Talk about excitement! Matt and Megan had to be out of town for a few days and my mother-in-law was working, so naturally she came to stay with Aunt KK and Uncle Landon.
I went to Senatobia and watched her at her house for the morning, while we waited on something to be delivered from UPS. Then we headed to Tunica.
Sweet girl slept all the way there, so obviously, she did not sleep when we got to the house. But she was so good. She just laid in her play pen and talked to herself for at least an hour! After "nap time" we scrounged around the house and tried to find some toys. Our house is not kid friendly yet.. So the toys we found? A crazy hat, tupperware, and a wooden spoon.
Obviously from the pictures, she enjoyed the toys.
That night we went to Lifegroups for church, where C was the CENTER of attention. This girl does not meet a stranger. She loved one of our members, Laura, the most :)
We left pretty much right after Lifegroups ended. I figured since sista didn't have a nap, she was pretty tired.
Once home, we did night-time routine. (I've been at Matt and Megan's enough times to know how it goes:) )
Bath. Jammies. Milk. Book. Prayers
The girl went down like a champ. No cries. No whining. Nothing. Man, I hope my kids are that good.
She slept for 12 hours straight. When we woke up, we had to get some snuggles in.
I felt like true mommy, because we planned a play date with one of the little girls from our church.

After lunch, we headed to MiMi's!
Having Charlotte over was so fun! People say thats the best birth control there is, but I think it had the opposite effect on me! It doesn't help that she was pretty much the perfect baby! Thanks Matt and Megan for letting us keep her!
**Please excuse the long post, but this was the first night one of our nieces/nephews has stayed the night with us :) :) :) **
