Andrea's First Friend Sleepover

On Saturday, June 13, the Robinets came down from Oakville with their little girl, Chloe, who is the same age as Andrea. They stayed overnight with us because we were all going to the Red Bull air races the next day. Since Andrea has a pull-out/trundle bed under hers, we got that ready, so Chloe could sleep in Andrea's room, and they could have their first friends' sleepover together! Even though they hadn't seen each other since the Christmas holidays, Andrea and Chloe were again best friends within minutes.

Kevin was really excited about Chloe, too. Once in awhile, the girls would let him join them (like above), but usually, they ganged up together and chased him away. Poor Kevin!

Don't they look adorable? Seriously, how cute are they, all snuggled up together? :))

Um, yeah. This is a more realistic representation of how the REST (no pun intended) of the night went.

Andrea ended up going back up to sleep in her own bed, because she wasn't used to sharing a bed with someone. Then, the girls played in their beds and talked until about 11:45 PM (when they both usually got to bed at 8:00 to 8:30 PM)! When we'd go in and scold them to go to sleep, they'd say WE were being too loud, and that's why they couldn't sleep. Ha! Besides, what could two three-year-olds possibly have to talk about until nearly midnight? Chloe's mom caught part of their private conversation; apparently, they were discussing their toys. :))

Incredibly, they were up and raring to go at 7:00 AM. Ugh. I threw on a Dora DVD, and that kept them occupied. They tied their blankies around their bodies like princess dresses, and danced along with Dora.

I don't think they were completely immune to the lack of sleep, though. After a bit of dancing, they wanted to cuddle together on the little couch with their blankies. :))

Overall, it was a typical little girls' sleepover: lots of giggles, and not much sleep!
