It was Saturday night and we just got the kids into bed. Eric asked me (Alyssa) if i wanted to sleep outside tonight. I told him we should get the tent out, because of the mosquitoes. Within about 30 seconds we figured we might as well get Brooklyn up, since she probably wasn't asleep yet and we can all sleep in the tent tonight.
Eric got Brooklyn out of her bed and she was thrilled. Eric and I set up the tent..around 9pm and arranged our sleeping bags. Brooklyn went around the yard collecting "sticks" We were debating on having Bentley sleep with us or in his crib with the window open so i could hear him. We decided in his crib. We got Brooklyn all settled and ready and as Eric and i were laying there i just couldn't help feel bad Bentley wasn't with us. I always think of the worse case. I told Eric i have to have Bentley sleep with us, and my response to why was, What if there is a fire in the house and we don't notice until it is too late.. I know i am sick for thinking that. So with that thought in mind, i got our Mr. Bentley and prepared a sleeping bag for him.
We gave Brooklyn the Kindle and let her watch one little show, since she needed to calm down and go to bed. And there is Bentley next to us laying on his sleeping bag. And thank goodness after his moaning cries he does before he falls asleep, he finally feel asleep and slept through the night.
This was Eric and I. (sorry i am in modest, I was so hot and sticky i just couldn't wear appropriated clothes) The camera flash was so bright we decided to take a picture with our eyes closed. haha
It was a fun little experience to prepare us for our real camping trip coming up in a few weeks!
