Sesame Street

Hayden went to see Sesame Street Live with Stephanie and Kierstin last night. Stephanie said she was a very shy and good the whole time. Hayden said she had so much fun, she has been telling us that Ernie knocked Big Bird down and Cookie Monster fell down. She also got to have her favorite thing, cotton candy. Stephanie said Kierstin didn't care for it too much, I don't blame her I don't like it either (it is just way too sweet). On the way home as if the cotton candy wasn't enough, Stephanie stops and gets hot donuts with sprinkles. Hayden is going to want to spend more time with Stephanie and Kierstin to get treats like that. I'm so glad she had a good time being that this was her first trip with her best friend without Mommy and Daddy. Stephanie had told me that Hayden could spend the night, but I was afraid she would wake up in the middle of the night looking for Mommy and Daddy. Yes, that is because she still sleeps in our bed, but we are perfectly fine with that. After everything we went through a year ago it is hard to let her sleep anywhere but right beside us. My grandmother tells me all the time that she needs to start sleeping in her own bed and I politely tell her that isn't going to happen right now! She has started talking about sleeping in her bed, so I guess when she tells us that she doesn't want to sleep with us anymore, we won't have a choice.

Mark and I both agree that once Gracie is old enough to sleep in a big girl bed that her and Hayden can sleep together. I think it will be cute. I can only imagine the conversations they will have. They will have so much fun together!
