Abnormal Morning

Aaron has turned me into a night owl. Or at least I'm a morning person masquerading as a night owl. Needless to say, I don't get up at 6 am hardly ever, unless I'm in Utah where I actually get to bed at a decent time.

This morning, at 7am, I sleepily rolled over and turned off the alarm clock. Taking my sweet time summoning up energy to get up and at 'em I noticed that I didn't hear little coos and squabbling from Eli's room. We don't know how early Eli wakes up, BUT he's usually talking to himself by teh time we are up. Anyway, I took advantage of this time and checked e-mail, did cross-word puzzles, etc. Usually he wakes up the moment he hears me or Aaron so I figured he'd be up soon. 7:45 rolls around, Aaron is up and Eli is still not making a sound.

So we go check on him to make sure he's not just lounging around AND that he's still breathing.

Sound asleep.

I guess it's just one of those lucky mornings.


I can't find my camera to computer cord so here's a little bit of Eli's past.

Oh! Look at that sweet, cute, little innocent boy! What ever happened to him? JK. He's still innocent, sweet, and cute, he just has a whole lot of mischief in him! I guess that is what happens when you have mischievous grandpas.

I have to laugh since I have had similar incidents . . .
I blame it on growth spurts or just plain luck for us! I keep waiting for it to happen again, but nothing so far. Mine are up at 6:30 sharp, and 7 if I am lucky. silly kids.
Eli is a cutie for sure!

I feel kinda lucky...Emmy sleeps until about ten every morning. I bet it was nice to be able to get some things done! I know I have a hard time getting anything done anymore once Emmy is up and at 'em :).
