Burning the 11 pm oil

So the other night Hy and I put the girls to bed around 8 or so. They were still awake, but we knew they would stay in their room and eventually go to sleep. (we stay upstairs) So we told Hy's mom (who we live with right now) not to check on them, because they tend to sucker her into letting them go lay with her in her bed. So she didn't check on them. Hy and I went out to Target for about 1/2 hour and then came back and watched a movie downstairs. As we were walking upstairs to go to bed around 11:00 pm, we could hear little voices. So at first we thought the TV was on, so we looked and it wasn't. Then we though possibly Baby Kiz was just awake hanging out in her crib--which sometimes happens. So we were tiptoeing past their room so she wouldn't spot us. As we opened the door to our bedroom we realized that it wasn't Baby Kiz. Red was sitting as wide eyed as ever, playing on NOGGIN on the computer. She was holding up the Juice who was totally crashed. All Red could do was giggle. All we could do was try not to show her how funny we thought it was. So we took video tape (which I'd post if I could figure out how to convert it to Quiktime) and we took photos. Then we sent them to bed. It was so funny!!! Poor Juice was so crashed and Red was just holding her in place. Apparently my affair with the computer is now spilling into the younger generation.

I agree w/onehm. I would probably have gotten mad. She looks very proud of herself.
