Kirkland has kind of been creeping us out lately at night. He gets up in the middle of the night & silently walks to our room, and doesn't make a peep until he is right there by my pillow, and sometimes, he just touches my face or my arm without ever saying a word. Here are just some of our favorites:
1. "The rocking chair is looking at me." (Seriously, we have to turn it around at bedtime so it doesn't "look" at him)
2. "They're watching" (We don't dare ask "who?" We are scared to know!)
3. "I hear sounds"
Sometimes, he just comes up with stuff so that we will get up & walk him back to his bed.
1. Kirkland: "I hurt"
Me: "Where?"
Kirkland: "In my feelings"
Me (suspicious that this is a scam): "Where are your feelings?"
He has to think about it, then he points to his stomach. Hmmm... Go back to bed.
2. "I'm yawning....Make me stop yawning" (Are you kidding? It's 2 a.m. He does not understand that the best cure for yawning is to just go back to sleep)
3. "I need medicine" (Don't bother asking, "for what?", he doesn't know. It's just quicker to go & get a medicine dropper, fill it with juice & give him his "medicine")
My favorite is from last night at 3:30, he is screaming this from his bed.
4. "Hey! HEY!!!! I've got boogers" Great...go back to sleep.

"I need medicine!" Oh man, I know it's frustrating that he doesn't sleep, but have I mentioned lately that I just might absolutely adore him? :) I miss y'all!!!
Caitlin, I totally forgot about that one...I'll see if I can add it! We miss you too!!! You should come back next week! :)
Ok, I wanna know how you get him to sleep in his bed??? Even if Hudson falls asleep in his bed, he wakes up in the middle of the night and gets in bed with us...I don't even wake up to take him back to bed! Love your blog.
Your stories make my stomach hurt they are so funny!
