We had a good time on Saturday with my sister and her kids. They played with our kids, we ate, talked, and drank. Then Saturday night, we went out to eat at SaZa's for Hubby's birthday. I had the Seafood Risotto. It was delicious. I felt bad for not sticking, so much, to my diet. I also had one Pineapple Upside Down Cake Martini, 2 glasses of red wine, and a Bay Breeze. Needless to say, I woke up with a headache on Sunday.
Last night, Son #2 would not stay in his bed. He has a problem with this. Hubby and me, in much need of sleep, just let him crawl into our bed. Again, Son #1 woke up with a nightmare. He told me he dreamt about "the faces." They were scary faces. He
He sat on the floor whining and complaining for about an hour, and every time I would think he'd fallen back asleep, he'd do it again. I.AM.NOT.PATIENT at THREE in the MORNING. Finally, he said, "Mommy, I need to tell you something," and I yelled, "SON #1 JUST GO TO BED!"
I wish I could be more of a loving/comforting mother sometimes, but 3 AM is just not the time for me. I comforted him when he came down the stairs, hugged him, told him next time he had a bad dream to remember that he controls his dreams, and that he can stop them. That's about the extent of my comforting at 3 AM.
In other news: The boys now enjoy showers: immensely. They say it is like playing in the rain!
Darling Daughter also repeated every word I said to her out of the alphabet book we read together, and she tried to pee on the potty, urinating instead right next to it!
They're growing up!
