Spencer is like most newborns who have their days and nights mixed up so we've been doing laundry together late at night. I put him in his bouncy chair and place him on the dryer while I wash and fold clothes. I think its the combination of the sound, vibrations and warmth of the room that make an otherwise fussy time more content for him. It works and we do what works! So the other night we were at it again. I've never been more caught up on laundry in my life. Some nights I'm actually looking for things I can wash. Earlier this year, I taught Brayden how to wash his own clothes. I knew he had dirty clothes in his hamper. It was about 11:00pm when I entered his room to remove his hamper. He heard me and woke up. I told him that he might have to look in the dryer to find his clothes if I didn't stay up long enough to get them out. He obviously was not fully awake. The next thing I knew, he was in the bathroom. Of course I thought nothing of it until I heard the shower turn on. I'm thinking, "is he sick?" So I knock on the door and ask if he is ok. He cracked the door open and says somewhat irritated, "Mom, I'm getting ready for school." I said, "at 11:00?" He said, "It's what time?" I reapeat. We both started to laugh and he says, "you got to be kidding me, I thought you were getting me up for school." It was a good laugh. I wish I could have a good laught like that every day.
Thanks Brayden.

That is so funny! You are so good to be doing laundry while up late at night. I wish I would have been more productive when my babies didn't sleep.
That is so dang funny!! You are so smart wih the laudry thing. All I ever did was get frustrated I was up and try to sleep in the rocking chair!!!
Got your card- love it!
Oh my gosh, so funny! Congrats on the laundry, though :)
Parker and I are laughing at this story. It sounds like something that would happen at our house (which is usually overflowing with laundry if you ever need more to do- ha! ha!).
Brayden, you played beautifully at our Relief Society dinner- Thanks!
