Sheets!

Thanks to a friend's idea, I now have embellished sheets to offer!  You can see more information on them on my other blog:  chuiesfamily.blogspot.com.  Here is what they look like . . . .

Yes, although she is posing like she is asleep, she really does hold her "chicken" in a mighty grip when she sleeps!  It is one of those Pete and Repeat - read VERY obnoxious - toys, but she loves it with all her heart!  We let the batteries run down and didn't replace them for a long time.  I finally took pity and put new ones in.  Chicka's reaction should have been recorded - it was precious.  She ran to him with her arms outstretched yelling

 "cccchhhhhhhiiiiiiicccccckkkkkeeeeennnnn" 

in such an endearing way - like a long lost close friend that you haven't seen in ages!  OK - so we put up with "chicken", whom by the way really is a parrot - but we can't convince chick-a-dee!

And the most important thing is . . . . . after pretending to sleep in her bed for a picture . . . . .

This is THE FIRST TIME in over a year that Chicka has gone to sleep in her own bed!  Without a single peep!  Can we hope to hope that tonight will go as well?  Or tomorrow?????
