Can you imagine waking up to this child jumping in your direction?


Some of you know that my A/C went out a few weeks ago and we thought we were about have to replace the whole thing with a new unit. Fortunately, they found a leak and were able to repair it. This just delays the need to replace the unit though. My husband is so afraid the whole thing will give out again he will only run it on about 80 degrees. I'm not thrilled with this.

He decided me and the kids should sleep in our room since it is the coolest in the house. So every night the kids trade out who sleeps in the middle (they're sweet because they both want to cuddle with Mommy) and cuddles up to me. I have to sleep on one side of the bed because I get up at night a lot. One night my son was sleeping in the middle with his sister on the other side. She was not thrilled about this. Apparently, in the middle of the night she decided that she wasn't going to sleep away from me. I woke up to see her leaping over her brother and caught her just in time to keep all 40 lbs of her from landing on me. She snuggled to me and went back to sleep. She is so cute.

LOL! She's a handful.

One thing I've alway sliked about Steve: He will ALWAYS put his family first.

Steve rocks. Maybe he'll calm down and lower the thermostat a bit when he sees it's working ok.

And thank goodness Mother's intuition saved you! What a wake-up that would be - she's adorable, but maybe not so cute when embedded in your guts!

Well, you ARE awfully nice to cuddle with! Who can blame her?

Sometimes my two year old son sleeps with us. Mommy gets lots of hugs and cuddles. I just get kicked. :-/

I swear we're getting a king size bed after we move back. It's top of the list!

Siren: No kidding

Sam: Thermostat hasn't lowered yet. Yes, thank heavens I woke up.

Biscuit: Thank you, you're fun to cuddle with too.

Suthnuh: King size beds are wonderful.

Kelly: Yep, it was dark and all I saw was her dark shape coming at me. It was a bit of a suprise to say the least.
