many of you know that allen and i decided when we were looking at new furniture that we needed a couch bed. "wow, they must get a lot of guests," you might be thinking. no, we don't. in fact, only two people have slept on that bed ~ Poppy and CD. but without a guest room we thought that would be the best decision. avery agreed and thinks the couch should be a bed all the time. who knew we would enjoy it like we do?....well, she did. couch bed parties normally happen on a friday night, when there is nowhere to be the next morning. it's a family affair and, let me just say, it's become one of my favorite family happenings. avery gets to pick the movie and she normally fights to stay awake. she's a little more tenacious than mommy and daddy because we've both dozed off a time or 10. most recently she chose Pooh's Heffalump Movie and we laughed and giggled and recited (because we have all seen it a gazillion times). i can sound very british and avery thinks that is just grand. she knows every song by heart and we sing together...and wait for our favorite part....when Lumpy finds his (as avery says) voice. because every time is like watching for the first time, she's relieved to see that Roo is saved and Lumpy and the rest of the gang from the Hundred Acre Wood become friends and i watch her drift off to sleep. i hope she remembers these couch bed parties....we will!
getting ready!!
