On August 24, Natalie’s best friend Clara slept at our house while her parents were in the hospital having Clara’s little sister Katie. Natalie was very excited to have Clara sleep in her room, and we decided to let them, warning them that if they didn’t go right to sleep, we might have to put them in separate rooms. They were angels!! No talking or stalling bedtime, they went right to sleep, and both stayed asleep until the morning—that’s better than Natalie does by herself most nights!
Here we are reading bedtime stories:

Clara and Natalie saying goodnight:

We couldn’t resist peaking at them in the middle of the night. This is why we’re trying not to let Natalie sleep in our bed anymore—she’s such a bed hog!!

This is awesome! We loved reading it and seeing the pictures! What fun! When can they do it again???
