WAKE UP!!!!!

Recently Dean and I have been having a visitor in our room in the middle of the night. Alexis has been pushing her way in between us sleeping sideways taking up as much space as possible. I know we should take her back to her room as soon as she gets there to keep from starting bad habits but at 3am I am just not in the mood to get out of my comfy bed and escort her back to her room. I'm sure that would turn into another book and another version of our nightly prayers too which would delay my sleep even more. She takes up so much room with her little body that Dean has even gotten up and gone down to the couch just to keep from getting kicked in the ribs. Me, I'm not moving no matter what. Anyway, the other night I woke up out of a deep sleep with this feeling of someone watching me. I didn't even hear a peep. Wow was I shocked to see Alexis standing there staring at me. It was such an eerie feeling. I can't watch scary movies for that reason. Needless to say I wasn't getting out of bed at that point so I just threw her into the middle. I just laid there wondering how long she was standing there staring at me. Only she knows. I think for the future I'm going to hang a bell on my door just to alert me when Alexis is on her way in.

Uh, yeah, that would freak me out too, esp because I am so jumpy these days...

Ummm if Dean is awake enough to march downstairs I say HE puts her back to bed (I always have such love for dads)...oh and I would install security locks, and cameras throughout the house, just to be sure she is not plotting something...

Good to see you back and blogging!

I agree with Natalie...that was my first thought Dean!! Maybe you should put the bell on her instead of the door, so you know when she's coming!
