Early waking and middle of the night peeing

I have been lax in posting because...Sam has been getting up in the 4am hour as well as sometimes in the middle of the night. So we are...tired.Plus, I went to Mexico, which was so awesome I can't even believe it. But, back to Sam. Yesterday afternoon/evening we had some great family time. M was leaf blowing and the kids were really into it and standing in front of it with piles of leaves. Then we went over to our neighbors yard to watch them carve their pumpkin (both sides!) and run around. Sam has never been in their yard before...they live behind. He did great though, and it was a lot of fun. When M told him it was time to go, he ran back to our yard with no fuss. Then he M let him do some of the leaf blowing. Nothing like seeing your child running with a tool that looks like a chainsaw. Little person and I stayed a while longer and when we came back both kids were pretty mellow. M lit a fire and we snuggled on the couch watching Scooby Doo, with a dinner break of roast chicken, carrots and cous cous. Kids went to bed easily, and we watched Into the Wild. Pretty good, pretty, pretty good.
