Many of you know, but just in case you don't... I used to be a sleep walker and talker. To the tune of night terrors and waking up in random places all over the house. My poor husband would usually wake up in time to keep me from getting too far out of bed, but sometimes not.
While I was pregnant, I not only stopped sleep walking and talking, I ALSO stopped having such horrible night terrors! I actually got decent sleep while pregnant, which is not apparently a norm...
Until this morning...
Brandon worked last night, and got home around 2:30 this morning. I had finally fallen asleep around 1, but something caused me to stir... I thought I heard voices through the baby monitor. What I was seeing and hearing was a house full of family, mainly Brandon's grandparents in Diana's room with her. For some reason, I felt the urge to get up, get dressed and see what was happening - logically I KNEW no one should have been in her room... she was sleeping!! But in dreamland, the great-grandparents were in her room trying to wake her up...
In reality AND my dream, I was getting out of my bed, but thought it would be inappropriate to go in there in my jammies - for the record, I sleep in pajama pants and a t-shirt... nothing inappropriate about that, but I thought it was at 2:30 this morning... So, as I am changing my pajama pants for a different pair (keep in mind, this is all while sleeping...) down the hall comes the husband...
I screamed because now there was someone in the hall way... which caused me to wake up... which also caused me to scream because now there REALLY was someone in the hall way... which caused him to yell because I startled him and he didn't understand why 1 - I was awake and 2 - why was I screaming??!!
When I finally gained full consciousness, we had a good laugh and then went and stared at our baby girl who was still sound asleep in her crib.
I am not a tired mom because ole girl won't sleep... I am a tired mom because my brain won't shut off long enough to let me sleep!!
Have a restful weekend, y'all!!
