sleep overs

The Beck family reunion is going to be a big camp out in Wyoming. The only thing is that Corban has never slept any where besides his own bed in his own house. Joe and I were a little worried about it, so Joe wanted to have a sleep over in our living room. 

Sleep Over #1: I made them popcorn and left to go upstairs. They watched shows, played flashlight games, and played video games. Corban then decided that he wanted me and wanted to go to his room. Joe dejectedly agreed to let him go and they both slept in their own beds that night. 

Sleep Over #2: This sleep over happened one night after Joe got off work at 9 o'clock and it usually takes between 15-30 minutes for him to walk through the door. Corban's bedtime is 8 o'clock and had been asleep a long time by the time Joe got home. Joe was persistent and wanted his sleep over, so he woke Corban up and took him downstairs where Corban instantly fell right back to sleep. Joe played video games by himself until about 3 o'clock when Corban woke up and wanted to go back to his room and his own bed. Joe threatened him that he couldn't play video games the next day unless he had a sleep over with papa! Classic! They moved their sleeping bags from off the couches and slept on the floor behind them. 

I don't know if Corban is ready to sleep in his sleeping bag in a tent in the great outdoors. He may end up sleeping in the car with his wussy mama.

  1. I'm all for sleeping in the car too. Camping is way overrated.

  2. We went camping this summer with Michael and were worried about the same thing. But, he did great. He slept even better than he does at home. So you have some hope yet.....
