Oh, for the love of….
Dear Squeektar,
Just because YOU went to bed at 9 pm, does not mean that everybody else did, too. In particular, Mommy did not fall asleep until after 1 am. When, by the way, you decided that the only way you can keep sleeping is by being on Mommy’s pillow. And around 4 am we were joined by your brother, who at least brings his own blanket and has cut down on kicking Mommy out of the way when she is having the audacity to sleep where he wants to be on her own bed….
My point is, at least wait until the alarm goes off at 6:15 before waking up and farting in my face, OK? Some of us count on that little block of time from 5:45 am to 6:15 am to get us through the day. Also, hitting the wall with your head because then the window rattles is a nice demonstration of cause and effect, but probably not very good for you.
Your Pavlovian reflex to the sound of my cereal hitting the bowl is cute, though. I can’t help but smile when you run into the kitchen going “ceweal, ceweal” and climb into the big chair in anticipation of me sitting down so that you can climb over to my lap. We should work on eating faster, though, because after 20 minutes Mommy’s portion of the cereal turns into a soggy mess, and I am not so far into my dotage yet that I can only eat mush. Just saying ;-)

I feel for you!
Ha ha! The part about him farting in your face! Oh, the things I can look forward to when I accidentally reproduce.
This made my day! Those sweet children couldn’t possibly be that bad. I’m still laughing. By the way, does the farting bring on any waves of morning sickness?
S’s Mom and I were talking, and we suggest you learn to aim that little tushie toward B.S. It will make bouts of nocturnal flatulence much more tolerable. (for you)
Well B.S. does not but up with that BS, redirects Squeaks butt post haste.
Since it is only a few more days before the long trip, I am not even trying to stop this bizzar sleeping behavior, since that is probably what they will do over there.
When they come back though, I am going to have another go at getting them to sleep in their own bed, that is if I am not to tired to sleep through them farting and kicking Mommy.
