In one Night

Here is a quick run down of the events that happened last night...

1:09 I came into Mommy and Daddy's room to tell them I had a bad dream. Mommy wanted to know what my dream was, and so I told her. We were driving and the bridge came crashing down, and we feel into the water. Mommy had me pray "Jesus please help me sleep, and have no more bad dreams, and tuck me in real tight". Mommy gave me a big kiss, and sent me back to bed.

1:25 I came back into Mommy and Daddy's room because I had another bad dream. Mommy wanted to hear this one too. So I told her. "Marianna was a little baby in your womb", Mommy said "in her room", I said "No in your womb", Mommy said "in my room?" "No in your womb, you know.... (I touched her belly) womb" "oh my womb, Marianna was in my womb", "Yes womb and bad guys were chasing us, and they caught us." We said another prayer, and I asked Mommy if I could lay on the couch and watch TV, she mumbled yes.



1:45 Reyna started crying waking up Marianna who told Mommy that she wanted some juice, Mommy said she would get some for her after she fed Renya. Which caused Marianna to cry. Mommy changed Reyna's diaper, and started feeding her. We were both watching the Food Network.



1:48 Reyna pooed in her diaper. Mommy changed her diaper, and continued feeding her, while I watched TV and Marianna cried for her juice.



2:27 Mommy finished feeding Reyna, and put her back in her crib, and got Marianna some juice. She gave me a kiss good night, and then went off to bed while I finished up an episode of Unwrapped.


2:39 Reyna started crying, Mommy rolled over hoping she would fall back to sleep.

2:51 Mommy took three Tylenol extra strength hoping to get some sleep, Reyna cried herself to sleep.


3:16 Reyna woke up screaming, and Mommy wanted to cry too.

3:29 Mommy asked Daddy if he would get Reyna, she was too tired to even move, let alone carry a baby safely around the house.

3:42 Mommy started to cry.

4:02 Reyna finally fell back asleep.

4:32 Daddy's alarm went off.

I wish we could say this only happens once in a very great while, but it doesn't. It happens often enough to be a "normal" night in our house. Mommy says it is a good thing that we are so cute, and that she loves us so much or we would find ourselves on Ebay.

PS NOTE FROM MOMMY: Really what three year old dreams that his 23 months old sister is in his Mommy's womb, (and calls it womb, not belly, or tummy) I think we are going to be asking for God to have an interpretation of that one.

Ah Man Maura, I would cry too. I sure hope Frank got up when you asked him. I would definitely be nudging Justin. Now, are we thinking Frankie's dream may be prophetic for another baby in Mommy's womb?

Ummm....the thought of having another baby makes me shake my head. If there was another baby it would be God's will, NOT Frank & Maura's.

Hi Maura,

Those nights are tough sometimes! As you know, it'll get better. So, here's to hoping it gets better REAL soon!

Looking forward to seeing you next week.

Love, Aunt Charlotte
