Morning in Bed

For six months or so, the kids and I have been talking about taking a day (or part of one) to spend in bed. In our room. Reading. Eating. Playing games. Etc. So, after much debate and planning on when would be a good time...we did it this past Tuesday! Dan and the kids had off for Chakri Day and we were going to have our Life Group over for dinner that night, but we spent the morning until 12noon in our room in bed!

We moved Megan's queen sized mattress into our room and placed it at the end of our bed...so all 3 kids could lay on it sideways. The kids got to play some DS, read some, snuggle some, do massages and brush out my hair....and we got to eat breakfast in our room on our floor!
We all sat on a sheet we put out and had a breakfast picnic (in the bottom right of the pic below).

It was a great time and the kids have asked if we can do it again! I loved it...not only staying in pajamas until then, but staying in bed until noon, too!

I love that idea! And its great you have a bedroom large enough to accomadate a queen size mattress and a picnic area too! That really sounded like so much fun. Wonderful way to have some great bonding time together. Yeah for another successful Seaman event!
