Arlo's First Sleepover





My sis and I decided that it would be a great idea to swap kids this weekend so we could both go on Valentines dates with our hubby's. Friday Night we took Hay and ET. We decided it was about time for Arlo to experience his first sleepover and who better to do it with than His favorite cousins. It was definately a hit. All involved had a blast. The evening's festivities started out with Dinner at El'Rancho Grande with Clint's family. Arlo felt very cool because he got to sit with his cute cousin Erin on one side of him and Hailey on the other. The kids played and giggled all through dinner. Then we were off to my house where Arlo put on his favorite Bat Man PJ's and got a special treat of watching a movie with Hay. They picked a bugs life and there was a lot of giggling going on. Then ET came over and joined the fun. We layed a big foamy comfy bed out on the living room floor and the kids had a pillow fight. Which Arlo thought was the funnest thing he had ever done. Once the pillow fight and dancing



was over, they all layed down and listened to a book of Curious George on CD.





Finally it was lights out but this didn't stop the random comments which seemed to keep commin for the next half an hour. I left that part to Clint. He stayed out with the kids while I, who was very exhausted fell alseep. We awoke the next morning to Arlo talking in full voice. "Hey. You guys awake? Hailey, It's time to wake up!" needless to say we all begrudgingly woke up and headed into a morning of full activities. We made a big breakfast and had a great time. I think if Arlo had his way we would be having sleepovers every night. Here are some pics of the event.

Super cute kids! It's fun to see pictures of them. I can't believe how big Arlo is getting. Are you guys planning any more kids?
