Dash in the box

We had an interesting morning today while getting ready to go to school.

After I got ready, I went into Audrey's room to wake her up. Normally her eyes pop right open when I walk in, but today I had to tickle her a little bit. What's the first thing she said? "Mommy, turn on the light!" She's funny.

I saw Conner stirring in bed while I was in with Aud (and after our trip to the potty), but after she was dressed and ready he was no where to be found. I discovered that Conner'd already gone downstairs to turn on the TV and sit with Dash (the cat). I told him to get back upstairs to get dressed and, after much fussing and arguing, he agreed. He got to his room first, then Aud and I went in to pick out some clothes. As I was helping him get dressed, I heard a funny meowing sound. I said, "Is that Dash?" He was like, "Yeah." I asked him where Dash was, and Conner told me that he'd put him in the drawer in his nightstand. That poor cat. I rescued the poor thing and put him out, then finally Conner made it downstairs to get some breakfast (which I made him eat with us at the table and not sitting on the couch watching tv - he wasn't happy!).

Even after all the hubbub we made it out the door nearly on time. Amazing.
