While mom and dad sleep...

I guess all the late nights the past few months (since dave has started school) are starting to take a toll on us... yesterday morning we were out. Dave likes to leave for work by 7:20. Well, I woke up to Kaylee bringing Dave a hand full of his vitamins and a drink of water with a big smile. I looked at the clock and it said 7:18!! OHHH CRAP!! I shove Dave to wake him up and ask Kaylee to go start some water boiling for oatmeal. She got a big smile on her face and said "I already did" I ran downstairs to pack his lunch and finish his breakfast...

On the way I found Caden playing happily with his dump truck.. not getting in trouble. Weird.

Then I went in the kitchen to find this..
Kaylee had toasted our waffles from yesterday, arranged them on the plate so she could mound up some home canned applesauce in the middle-she knows dad loves that! Then cut up some bananas to go on the waffles. She had also made him a BIG bowl of oatmeal. She accidental added too much water, so she decided to add two more packets to thicken it up. :) Then she cut up some fresh bananas in his oatmeal along with some raisins. She had his lunch bag hanging on the drawer starting to pack his lunch with bananas and apples. She had also made caden some oatmeal that was already eaten on the table. What a sweetheart!! Were not sure what we would do without great kids to bail us out when were sleepy heads!!
WE SURE LOVE THEM!!

  2. Kaylee is such a super thoughtful helper. She'll make a great mom someday. Aspen helping with Briggs and Caden playing and not getting into trouble. What a way to wake up.
