Heylo Readers!
This was the first time Kate was alone in the house! We were running out of groceries, and Kate was napping, so I decided to slip out for maybe 20 minutes. I took the car and I bought my groceries as fast as I could. But, to my astonishment, when I got home, Kate had gotten out of her "big girl" bed - a Christmas present - and the house was a mess! There were toys everywhere, and little Kate had gotten into the cookies! She was sitting on the couch, watching TV - I'm not sure why she's so tech savvy - and chocolate was ALL OVER HER FACE!
She was eating a rather large cookie when I walked in, and crumbs were flying all over!
"Kate!" I said angrily. "You know you aren't supposed to be having cookies, or watching TV when Mommy and Daddy aren't here!"
"Mommy," Kate replied. "I woke up and you were gone, and I was hungry, so I got a snack!"
It was so cute, I almost forgave her, but she needs to know she can't just take cookies.
"Kate," I said. "That was my fault, I went out to get some snacks, but you can't take cookies, they're unhealthy!"
"No TV either," I added.
"OK Mommy!" said Kate excitedly.
I am so exited for Midnight Madness! I'm baking a special batch of cookies, and I'm open until midnight! Kate can stay up until her bedtime, and maybe a little bit after, but I need to make sure she gets some sleep.
Got to go!
KISSES!
How did midnight madness go? Did Katie-cat sleep at all??
ReplyDeletewell, she did, but she went to bed WAY past her bedtime!
ReplyDeleteWhen I got home, she was drawing at the dining room table :)
