Eating while sleeping

Nate has been falling asleep in our bed lately and when we go to bed, we carry him to his room. Then, about three hours later, he climbs back in our bed. :)

Anyways, last night as I picked him up to move him, his eyes half opened and he picked up his hand and and made a motion like he was putting something in his mouth. I sort of giggled and just watched. Then, he put his first two fingers in and licked them clean and then the last few fingers. All of this while sleeping. It was so incredibly hard to not bust out laughing and wake him up. I wonder what food he was dreaming of...

The sickness

Apparently this house is not immune from the stomach bug that is going around. Last week, Nate went to bed just find and woke up 20 minutes later vomiting in bed. This is the first time he has ever thrown up, poor baby. After getting everything cleaned up (Erik did it, I can't handle puke), Nate told us he couldn't sleep in his bed. So, I slept with him on the floor of Lex's room (he was downstairs sleeping). Then, every time he got sick in one particular area (he made the bucket each time!) he told me he couldn't sleep in that area because it made him sick :( Thank God we only had one night of this with him. He was sleepy and clingy the next day but about 20 hours later, he was back to himself.

Then, Sunday night, it hit Lex. This is only the second time he's ever gotten sick like this himself. He made the bucket and/or the toilet each time. I had to sleep on the floor with him too. Again, about twenty hours later and he's back to himself.

Bailey told us last night that she's bracing hers to come. *sigh* Part of having kids, right?

Ten things pregnant/new moms are NEVER told...

1. Those cute dressers that fit those tiny baby clothes will be absolutely ridiculous in two years down the road when you can only fit two shirts in them.

2. All the time spent buying cute "matchy" outfits (tops and bottoms) will only be worn when *you* dress them, not by the hubby. Even if they are put away together on the same hanger.

3. Don't ever use the word "outfit" to describe your husband's work clothes as he's leaving.

4. You will never go to the bathroom alone again.

5. You will always refer to going to the bathroom as going to the potty.

6. You will eventually find yourself watching kid shows when there are no kids in the room.

7. Playdoh and barbie shoes make really loud noises as you vacuum them up.

8.Local and world events will happen and you will have absolutely no clue.

9.You will find yourself discussing poop and not be grossed out by it.

10. Don't ever ever ever say, "I would never..." because one day you will.

Night time and the morning

I'm starting to wonder what happens at night when I sleep. The other morning I woke to find Nate in footy pajamas and party beads on. Hmm...... Makes me wonder.....

This morning I came down to Lex wearing only a pair of underwear. Nate, on the other hand, was wearing three shirts and a pair of shorts. Should I mention that it's snowing outside??
