Sleep disturbances...

This was written by Jaime a month or more ago, but she never posted it for some reason. Things our daughter will wake up (and then wake us up) for in the middle of the night:

-To get her a drink of water
-To help find her My Little Pony that fell out of the bed
-To take her rubber band out of her hair
-To put her rubber band back in her hair
-To tell us she actually wants to get back in her own bed
-To put her blankets back on her in anal-retentive order
-To help her go pee in the potty (she actually makes it about 50% of the time!)

Things she apparently will NOT wake up for:

-POOP!!! Coming out of her body!!! The heck???

So weird, right? At least she's never been one to smear it on the walls. *shudder* Almighty Heaven please let this next one also not be a smearer.

unless she has the runs how does one go about having a bowel movement in their sleep? I didn't even think newborns did that. well maybe.

I am always amazed at how similar our kids are. It never gets old to me. What's with being crazy about blanket order? It drives me nuts. Here's hoping Tess sleeps better (and with less poo) once her little brother is born. :)

It was a really weird night! I think she must have been in a weird dream stage of sleep when it happened b/c I could hear her whining but just didn't get up right away to see what was going on. Luckily she seems to have gotten over her fear of pooping in the daytime so it hasn't happened again.

I'm glad she's not the only one weird about blanket order too! Now that it is getting warmer at night we are insisting she sleep with less. As long as she has her one special one she has been fine so far.
