WIPEOUT! 6/19/2009

Koda Bear has had a few nightmares this past week. Coming into Mom and Dad's bed always makes the kids feel better. Yesterday Koda came in my room about 5:00 (luckily I was already awake) asking if I would sleep in his bed with him. I told him lets go in Grandpa's room~his bed is more comfortable than Koda's. Of course my shadow, Harley, followed us in. Koda fell asleep on my chest, and Harley fell asleep on my legs! I stayed like that for two hours because every time I would try to get up Koda would pop his head up and ask "What are you dreaming about momma?" Nothing Koda I can't sleep. "Oh, I am dreaming about the mumblemumblemuble" and he would fall back to sleep!
My kids just might be the biggest fans in the world of the show WIPE OUT! We record it for them and they will watch it over and over, until somehow someone deletes it (I wonder who would do such a thing!?!) Today they decided to set up their own version of Wipe Out in our backyard!
They played for HOURS~how does that saying go~It's all fun and games until someone gets hurt! Well Koda is the one that took the fall. As he tried to jump over the bridge (a rug draped over two chairs) for the 100th time his foot caught, and he went down. Hard. So hard it knocked the wind out of him, which I think scared him more than it hurt. But as he tried to catch his breath he cried "Jumping over the bridge was not smart. I could have killed myself!!" I had to laugh as I held him until he stopped crying. He is such a crack up!
