Meet The Man of Your Dreams!

In the Fuller family we rotate who has who for Christ mas gifts. This year I have Samuel he is the 4Th child of 5, and the only boy. he is also the only single one left. He is only 22 (I think?) so his singleness its not too serious yet. Still though, Jenny the 3rd child has created a blog dedicated to getting him married.

Samuel dates a lot, every week I would say he has a date. He has lots of friends and is very social. Samuel probably does not need any help finding a wife but, with family of girls we feel restless and feel like we need to do something to get him married, and he likes it. He enjoys being set up and overloaded with praise, and he does want to get married soon.

Samuel is insisting that I not get him anything for Christmas. He says he has too much stuff. So to me that means he does not want anything tangible. I have decided for Christmas I will post on the blog set up by Jenny, Get Sam Fuller Married. Come check out Samuel and if you know any nice single girls in Arizona set him up!

Sleep Advice From Pammy.

I am going to post the Month of November similar to the month of October. The kids love it and it was easy. The last 3 months of the year go by so quick and I do not want to take the time to sit a write a lot, but I do enjoy a quick read on your blog so thanks everybody else for posting!

One thing that I do want to write quickly was some good advice I got from Pam Hashimoto. I love Pammy! So do my kids. We VT together, every time we go I get some great real advice from her. I told her Jr was having a hard time sleeping at night. I was mostly upset because he was falling asleep at school.
When my kids are not in school and do not have responsibility to be somewhere during the day, bed time is much more relaxed. They can stay up latter then nap or sleep if they need to, but not Jr with Kindergarten all day I have learned to be more strict with bed time.
My problems were this:
1. Jr was not getting enough sleep at night and would fall asleep at school.
2. Katie keeps him up at night, they play and talk for too long after bed time.
3. It took him 2 hours to finally fall asleep, when I put them to bed at 8:00. My only solution was put him to bed earlier. It is dark at 6:00 he does not know what time it is, if it took him 2 hours to go to bed at 8:00 if I put him to bed at 6:00 he will fall asleep at 8:00 right?
Here is Pams great, clearly obvious advice:
1. Ask the teacher not to let him fall asleep at school. Then he will be tired enough to go to bed on time.
2. Send Katie to bed after Brian falls asleep. They they will not keep each other up.
3. He will not go to bed at 6:00 if he is not tired. He will play in his bed and not be able to sleep even after 2 hours. Wear him out then send him to bed at his bed time.

Great advice! It all seems so obvious when you step back and evaluate, it is nice to have a friend to give to honest straight advice!
