Busy Bees and Bean Bags

Seems like life has been extra crazy these past weeks. Boot camp, 10 hour work days, and an impromptu weekend trip to Chattanooga has gotten me way behind on the blog! However, I have lots of photos and stories to share if you'll be patient with me.

Here's a quickie...

We have a giant bean bag in our house. Warren purchased it a few years ago thinking I'd let it substitute for a sofa. Eventually I was able to move it into the kids' room. They've always loved sitting on it to read books, occasionally sleeping on it when guests come over, and frequently jumping on it from the top bunk just to freak me out.

Now they have a new use for it. They've been zipping themselves up inside of it. Apparently it is super warm and cozy in there. In fact, it's so awesome in there, Jiro has started calling it "Candy Land."

The other morning I went in to wake the monkeys up, and only one monkey was in the bed. "Where's Jiro?!" I screamed. Satchel sleepily rubbed his eyes and pointed toward the bean bag. "Candy Land," he said non-chalantly.
