Sleepover Take 1, 2, and 3

The girls have been begging to have a sleepover in Delaney's room and, since it's summer, we decided to oblige them.  

Take 1
The first night, Monday,  they crashed pretty easily because neither of them had a good nap that day.  However, at about 2 am they both ended up in our bed because of some thunder.  

Take 2
I told them they could try again Tuesday night, but they never made it to sleep.  They were too giggly and couldn't settle.  Finally, at 9:48 pm, I made Harper go into her room.  

Take 3
Wednesday was their third and final chance. When I brought in Harper's pink blankies and piggy she said, "I don't need them, Mom, I will just snuggle with Delaney."  Cute!  They both fell asleep within about 15 minutes and no bad weather was in the forecast, so I figured it would be smooth sailing for whole night.  Nope.  At 12:20 am, Allan and I were awakened by two crying girls.  Apparently, Harper had a bad dream and was crying, but Delaney was not feeling sympathetic.  In fact, as soon as we walked in her room she demanded, "Get her out of here!  I don't want to hear her!"  Don't mess with Delaney and her sleep!  Lucky Harper got to come sleep in our bed.  This morning, when I asked Delaney about it, she did not remember anything at all.  

No more sleepovers for a while.  We will try again next month.

Monday - settling in for the night
Allan and I thought it was cute how Harper had her fist on Delaney's face and Delaney didn't even notice.
Sleeping kids are too cute!
 Night 3 - before the bad dream
Harper loves to snuggle!
