First sleep-over

As I mentioned in my last post, Grandma spent the night on Friday.  I didn't get ironed clothes, but I did get a very clean house, yay!  Also, for the first time ... Andrew left with Grandma to stay the night at her house!  I packed his little suitcase with toys, books and a change of clothes. Also, packed: breathing treatment, bendryl, and lotion.

While this will be so much fun for Andrew, I wondered what would really be going on at grandma's. Andrew had a good time. He didn't cry to come home or anything. In fact, he said not to pick him up that he was going to stay at Grandma's for a long time.  

It was strange having only 1 kid to tow around. We went to the store, came home and made lunch, then Adam took his nap. I went to the mall and Raul laid on the sofa.  Such a different dynamic with just one.  But, we did miss Andrew and his funny antics.

Sunday I called Andrew and told him I was coming to pick him up. Again he said not to come that he was staying there. All cuteness aside, I was preparing myself for a huge meltdown and a screaming 4 yr old having to leave grandma's.  I was surprised when I got there and Andrew told me he was ready to go home.  He didn't cry or anything. Grandma had a fear tears; she enjoyed having him there. Good to know because now we'll be shipping him off at least once a month.

We got home and things were back to normal at Casa Ramirez. Fighting, crying, and time-outs.  oy!

Here's a cute picture of Andrew leaving with Grandma.
