Skyzone wiped my kiddos out. They have been napping for 2 hours and are still sound asleep. Ella even woke up coughing and called out for me to help her prop her pillows up and went back to sleep without a fuss.
I foresee some winter trips for Toddler Time...$5.00 each for an hour and a half of bouncing, yep well worth it!

Nighttime routines change often and with those changes comes patience as typically it involves wanting to get up to go potty an extra time, asking for a drink of water or an extra song or story. All things that take more time and prolong the inevitable which is lights out, head to pillow, love you see you in the AM.
This past week has been a shocker of a change. Ella has requested we not read bedtime stories anymore. She also has gone from having us lay with her for 5 minutes and then an additional 1 minute to either only laying for a minute or not laying with her at all! While it has only been about a week and she may change her mind and request bedtime stories and cuddle time again ....I must say this change is one that is kinda sad. While it is nice to not have the "drawn out I will do anything so I don't have to go to bed" routine it is kinda sad if she has given up the stories and cuddles. I for one enjoy that in the evening with her.
Cooper has started requesting whichever parent didn't put him to bed come in and give him an extra hug and kiss. Josh and I even have a sign we prop up in the hallway so whomever put Ella to bed knows to go in to his room if the sign is in the middle of the hallway. Of course we came up with that method only to have Ella change up her routine which now makes that parent the one who is finished bedtime routine first. Ha!
Who can out smart who...the ongoing game between parents and children. ;)

Olaf and Anna are my two favorite Frozen characters. This morning Ella told me I should have her panties since Anna and Olaf are my favorites. I told her they wouldn't fit me and she said we should get me some that are my size.
If anyone sees Frozen panties in the women's section let me know...I can only envision the smile Ella would have if I actually had a pair!!!!!
