Out for a walk

This past Friday we played host to a bit of company. Dawn was in a jam without a babysitter and Kyle and Adam came over for a slumber party. Kyle, whom you've all heard about, is Colton's good buddy and Lennon's favorite friend. This causes some turmoil as the boys want to be "alone" and Lennon just wants to play with them. At 19 months, Adam apparently isn't a suitable playmate for her. She loves him to death when she wants to, but mostly just wants to be with the big kids.

To ease a little of the tension we decided to take an after dinner walk with Bailey. Yes, we are crazy. I put Adam in the pack, grabbed the leash and we went for it. I am so glad Josh came with us. On the home stretch Bailey was dragging his feet, Lennon was on Daddy's shoulders and Kyle and Colton were poking at each other with sticks and racing for the driveway. In the end the kids had a good time, slept well (eventually) and we survived the night .
