Since Parker has been born, we have been really bad about having a bedtime routine for Lukin. (If you have children, you understand what I am saying.) Anyway, he kept ending up just falling asleep on the couch because he was so tired and wouldn't go to bed. So one night, I thought of the idea of having a slumber party in the living room. That way, he could fall asleep on the couch, and I could finish feeding Parker and getting him ready for bed, and pump and do whatever else I needed to do after Sonny went to bed without feeling bad that Lukin was still awake. Also, years from now, it will be a fun memory to have of when we used to have slumber parties when Parker was a baby.

About 10 minutes after the snack part of the slumber party. This is typical. Lukin is all excited for the slumber party, but usually the slumber party involves Mommy watching the news, and so as soon as snack time is over, he falls asleep. The only time he stayed up longer was when we watched his movie choice (Stuart Little) at our slumber party. But then as soon as that was over, he fell asleep.
But like I said, good memories being made.
