A day of rest...lol

Today is Sunday, otherwise known as the day of rest. Yes, I find that funny. I started my day off by being woke up at 3:30am by Lexington. On Friday night, my sweet little cherub when to sleep at roughly 11 pm and slept until 10:20 am on Saturday morning. He never woke during this time. I, however, had to wake at 7:30 Saturday morning to get myself ready and wake Garrett up so he could get ready for his basketball game. We had to leave our house a little before 8:30 to ride with his friend Graham, his mom Valisha, and her mom who were nice and allowed us to carpool. We did not make it home until close to noon. that being said, my sweet little angel, Lexington went to sleep last night at 10:45 roughly only to wake at 3:30, and again at 4:15 at which time we put him in bed with us. When Lex sleeps with us, it is a very uncomfortable sleep. Ben and I share a queen size bed, so once my sweet little man who is only a little over 2 foot tall (29" to be exact) decides he needs to sleep with mom and dad, it becomes a very crowded bed as he thinks his 29" frame needs the whole bed to himself. Therefore, Ben winds up with roughly 14 inches on his side of the bed, I get maybe the same amount on my side of the bed and Lexington gets everything in between so he can stretch out. I believe somewhere around 6:30 Ben woke up and decided to finally move Lexington to his own bed once more. We then slept until around 9:30 when Lexington woke us up yet again. I, refusing to get up, lounged in bed catching up on reading some emails from my phone. I finally got my lazy bones out of bed around 10am and came out to check on Lex and everyone else. Ben started breakfast and we finally sat down to eat around 11:30. The whole time he was working on breakfast, I was working on dishes and cleaning off the kitchen counters. After breakfast, I jumped in the shower and then Garrett, Kimberly and I left Ben and Lexington at home to head to church. Church was nice, and Kimberly and I left after sacrament, and Garrett stayed for Sunday school and Primary. Kimberly and I travelled to a few quick destinations where I had to run quick errands before returning home at roughly 3:15 pm. Once home, Ben and I worked on folding laundry, then Kimberly and I picked up toys on the living room floor. Garrett came home around 4:30 and Ben and Kimberly left around 4:45 to take Kimberly to meet her mom in Searcy. Garrett, Lexington & I were at home and Lexington kept getting into the cereal and dragging it out. At one time, he climbed into the drawer with the cereal and started eating it dry. I did not find this very amusing, but had to laugh, they are only this size once. Soon, however, Lexington was not in a very good mood and kept crying. He was very upset and nothing I was doing seemed to help. He wanted up in my lap, he wanted down, he wanted me on the floor then he wanted me in my chair, he wanted me to walk around with him, then he wanted to sit in my lap again. Luckily about the time we were both getting very frustrated, Ben came home. This meant I had to start working on dinner. After dinner, Lex needed a bath, then I had to get him dressed. After getting dressed, he needed his fingernails cut, and his teeth brushed. Next up was story time, then a little milk, and now he is sound asleep in his bed. Unfortunately, I had home work to do, and then decided to blog. So day of rest, lol, don't see it happening today. I have finished my homework, I have finished my blog. Now I am going to read a little and hopefully get in bed in the next 45 minutes so I can wake up tomorrow and do it all over again.
