Camping

Well, we decided to go camping this weekend. We were a little skeptical whether or not to go because of the twins. We thought it over and decided to go somewhere close just in case. When we got to the campsite, everything was great. We took the twins walking around and to play at the playground. We were really trying hard to tire them out so they would go to sleep at night. They usually go to bed around 6PM everynight. Even though we tired them out, they were still up and running around at 8. We all laid down in the tent and we decided to play like we were sleeping and let them run around and they would eventually fall asleep. Well, Emerson went to sleep almost immediately, but Logan just kep running around kissing everyone and hugging them. My daughter and I were trying so hard not to laugh. It was so cute and sweet. At 9:00, Logan was still awake and I had to go use the restroom. My daughter and I left the tent and Logan stayed with his dad. Coral and I decided to stay in the car when we got back so we didn't wake Logan up if he was almost asleep. My husband finally got Logan asleep around 9:45, so we decided to cook some more food. We all went to bed about 10:30. We were all sleeping, but Logan woke up screaming around 11:30. He was screaming so loud that he woke Emerson up too! My husband decided to take the twins in the van for a ride. After all there were other campers all around us and we didn't want to disturb them. Nate took them for a ride and Logan fell asleep right away, but Emerson would not go back to sleep. My husband brought Emerson back into the tent and he finally fell asleep with me. My husband was too afraid to move Logan so he slept on the floor of our van with him for awhile. Logan eventually woke up and Nate brought him back into the tent, then he fell asleep. Finally, every one is sleeping. Before we knew it, Logan woke up again!! This time is was 4:00 in the morning!! At that point, we took Logan to the van so he wouldn't wake Emerson up. Emerson woke up around 5:30 and then we just decided to leave. The moral of this story is to never take two toddlers camping!!
