Every night I battle with my children about going to bed and staying in bed. 

Most night Jenna goes willingly and Nate is the one I fight with to go down...  however Jenna gets up in the middle of the night and ends up in my bed, whereas Nate stays put all night (ONCE I finally get him to sleep).

The last couple of nights have been no different.  Last night however, Nate stayed in his bed.  I was shocked.  At one point I thought I heard some rustling around in their room, but decided that it was okay, as long as they were staying in their room and eventually settled down.

At about 1 am, I finally headed to bed.  I check in on Jenna and pulled the sheet up on her.  She's in the bottom bunk.  Then I climbed the ladder a bit to check on Nate.

There laid my little boy... sleeply soundly... in his sister's pink dance leotard, pink lace tu-tu and pink satin ballet slippers.

Sigh.

What is wrong with this kid?  LMAO.

Ha... This was totally Jenna's idea, and Nate cooperated (probably just excited his sister is being NICE to him for once).  I laughed my mommy-ass off when they came into my room, Jenna following a blond-wigged Nate, calling him "Natalie" and saying "Mommy... I always wanted a SISTER!"

I'll let the pictures tell the rest of the story.  God I love blackmail pictures.  Ha.
