Sleepover

Aubry has had a few sleepovers at Grandma Karen's, but her first sleepover at a friends house took place last weekend. Kyri was so excited to have Aubry over. Over the summer, Kyri checked out a book about a sleepover party from the library. Ever since, she has been begging to have a sleepover of her own. She finally had the opportunity last weekend. Aubry slept over on Friday night! Both girls had their own ideas of what was necessary at a sleepover. Aubry created a "list" (no joke! It had toothbrush, toothpaste, love forever, check to see if Kyri has an airplane and tic-tac-toe" and Kyri just kept telling Teri things they were supposed to do.
They started out the night making individual pizzas with Kyle.
Then they played with the train set for a long time.
Some dress up, of course. The princess and the prince were dancing...
Not sure how the royal couple ended up at the bar...
After playing in the basement, Kyri reminded Teri that they were supposed to have a treat. So, they went upstairs to have some ice cream.
The girls were eager to get into their jammies and roll out their sleeping bags!
Teri was about to tuck them in when Kyri stood up and said, "Mommy, we can't forget the games!"
(Of course, all sleepovers have games!)
Aubry requested Tic-Tac-Toe. We found the one she's used to playing from the app store and downloaded it to Teri's phone. Then, Kyri requested Duck Duck Goose.  They all played, even Kyle and Tessa.
Then, they were eager to get into their sleeping bags, so they went to bed willingly.
We could hear them talking and giggling on the baby monitor at first and were very afraid that we'd need to go in there and tell them to go to sleep. Within about 10 minutes, the talking stopped. Then, we heard snoring! Both girls fell asleep and stayed asleep the whole night! They even slept in until 7:45!  Everyone got to sleep in!
Aubry got to go with to Kyri's dance class.
Ms. Penny let Aubry join the class!
Look how together their steps are!
The rest of the day was cold and rainy, so they had some popcorn and watched a movie.
They kept themselves pretty busy playing with some Play-doh
And they kept each other busy all day moving from room to room, coming up with new games and pretend situations.  Teri can remember when they were going through the house with flashlights calling themselves the "Mysterious Girls" and looking for mysterious objects.
Kyri and Aubry played great together -The first sleepover was a success!
Thank you Teri, for the perfect post!!
