Bedtime

So right now my favorite time of day is 8:20pm...both girls asleep in bed and I can sit down and relax! Miss Alison went to bed at 6pm after filling up on cereal and bananas. Poor little muffin is teething (already) so it may prove to be a long night. We'll see how much "relaxing" I can actually accomplish...

Julia's bedtime is very routine. The only variable of the night is what excuse she might use to keep me in her room longer or call me back up for. Here is a short list....

* I need another kiss/hug
* I thought you might like a hand shake
* The song was sad and I need a hug (she listens to Jack Johnson to go to bed, the same cd night after night since she was 1!!)
* Can I wear your eyeglasses? (placing her face nose to nose with me) Well, then can I look through your windshield?
* Can Charlie sleep in my room? (our pug)
* While stroking my hair, how did you get so beautiful? Are you a princess?
* Are mommies really magical? Well, then how do you do so many things?

She has also been having really weird dreams lately. The other night she had a dream her teeth fell out and didn't grow back, and the night after that she had a dream daddy's eyeballs fell out. She ran into see daddy in the morning to make sure his eyes were still there!

I guess only tomorrow will tell what silly excuse or crazy dream she will have next...

  2. Last night she told me my nose looked like a mountain. She really is a boost to the old self esteem! One time at bedtime she told me, "When I grow up I want to wear glasses, and have a big nose just like you!"
    haha
