Second Sleepover for the Boys

Conall and Kanton had their first sleepover at our house on Conall's birthday this year. Then, they tried a sleepover at Kanton's, but by 10:30 Kanton was asleep and Conall was ready to come home. Last night, the boys had their second sleepover at our house.

Conall and Kanton have been asking to have a sleepover since both boys got good report cards around Easter. Conall got to "earn" inviting Kanton over if he could keep green on his behavior light at school on Thursday and Friday. He's been having trouble getting green since they did the Kindergarten standardized tests and made it to orange on Wednesday. Conall cleaned his room Wednesday, got green at school Thursday and Friday, and helped me clean the rest of the house yesterday after school. He even started helping his uncooperative sister with cleaning her room! So, Conall got a sleepover last night.

The boys were most excited about having daddy (Mr. Stu to Kanton) tell them ghost stories before bedtime. He scared them with at least one story and Conall was up for awhile afterward saying he was "scared". I brought a sleepy Inkspot into the room and he climbed between both boys and helped settle them down with his purring. The boys both slept all night and were up at 6 a.m. this morning.



Conall and Kanton wanted to have pancakes and watch Ponyo this morning. They ate a few bites of pancakes and moved on to "the caterpillar to butterfly" game. They played and drew pictures until it was time for Kanton to go home and get ready for soccer.
