A few minutes of chatter I did not transcribe -- I am already up to 29 minutes, and it's taking forever to write it out!! I was about ready to give up, but then I heard the next part, which I thought was entertaining...

I am giving up for tonight. And contemplating, once again, not allowing water in their beds at night. More often than not lately, Alex is waking up soaked. I hate to not give it to them if they are thirsty, but they seem to be playing with it more than needing it!
