Bedtime: 4:30 pm

It was a nice, slow inside kind of day. Ryan spent at least two hours at the table tracing, cutting, and taping. He ended up with a nice book of treasures. It's been a while since he's done that so it was nice to watch him work.

Meanwhile, this guy was crawling under the table, climbing on chairs (to get on the table), and keeping quite busy himself. Oh to be twenty again!!

I tried to explain to him this morning at 6:00 that it was way to early to be starting the day. We didn't quite get through the broccoli.

It was a chili and cornbread kind of night. This was a pretty good basic chili. Super easy to make. I haven't ever watched the Neely's on Food Network but it's their recipe.

So Ryan wanted to know why he has such good days but at night time he gets himself into trouble. I told him that was an excellent question and one we had better put some thinking into. We haven't come to a firm conclusion of what happens just before dinner that brings out the wild side, but going to bed at 4:30 might just be the answer!
