Big Girl bed fall-out, take one:
We knew it was bound to happen. The bed we have for Maren can't have a bed rail on it - and really, what good is a bed rail if your child was trying to climb the crib rail??
2:30 AM - I heard a couple of "smack! bams!" (see Burggraaf blog - thanks for the terms, Zach!) and then cries. She's a tough one! After I picked her up, she was ready to go back to sleep.
We survived take one.

Girls just wanna have fun!
I went to Des Moines on Saturday for my friend's, Katrina, bachelorette party. It was so fun to see everyone and have a night out with the girls.
Katrina and Steve are getting married December 20th. Can't wait for the big day, Kat!
P.S.> Thanks for the picture, Zinner! :)

Back to Clifford
As promised, pictures from Clifford...see the excitement! :)
So, the story is...
This was advertised as basically a meet and greet with Clifford (6:30-6:50), and I assumed a story with the kids since it was hosted by the Public Library. SURPRISE! It was a parenting session - which would have been fine with me if I would have been prepared - we still probably would have gone....but I would have left the tired 16 month old at home! She was crab. I was a crab when I found out what was going on. So, I let Maren run around - it was a pick your battles night. Let her run or let her scream...so I didn't get much out of the parenting session anyway. And, Cale came back early from the kid session so we left - at 7:20 (see the 6:50 end time above). I complained and felt a little bad afterwards. I'm not quite as bitter as I was the first week - can you tell?? Anyway, the organizer of the event was just as snowballed with the parenting session as the rest of us, so that is why I feel bad. They're having 2 more sessions with Clifford - the Wehrenberg family will not be attending, along with probably several others...too bad because they did have an awesome turn out the first night. OK, I'm done with Clifford. No more complaining! :)

A note from Daycare
I just received the following e-mail from BNessa (Cale speak for Vanesssa):
CALE TOLD ME TODAY THAT HE WAS STANDING ON THE COUNTER NAKED AND HIS DAD CAME IN AND LAUGHED
HE MADE SURE TO TELL ME A FEW TIMES HE WAS NAKED !
KID TALK YOU GOTTA LOVE IT YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT THEY ARE GOING TO SAY NEXT
VANESSA
OK - So, here's the explanation. :) The kid LOVES to be naked. The other night after bath, I was getting the kids ready to brush teeth. Cale climbed on the counter and started dancing and singing, "Naked Jaybird" so I told Ryan to come in to see his son. It was funny! At least he was telling Nessa and not some stranger...as far as I know!
