When Adrianna was sick with H1N1 a few weeks ago, Greg toted her old crib mattress upstairs from the basement and put it on the floor in our bedroom so we could keep an eye on her overnight.<\/p>\n
Even though she is fully recovered, the mattress has still been seeing a lot of use from Adrianna. She will wake up in the middle night and claim that she had a bad dream and she’ll ask if she can sleep with us. How can we say no? Plus, both Greg and I really do like having our entire family in the same room. Somehow it feels extra safe and we like having Adrianna nearby. Having the mattress in there has really helped us to still be able to get a full night’s rest too since Adrianna tends to be quite wiggly and being pregnant, I have a hard enough time getting comfortable without having a warm little wiggly body pressed up to my back all night. (Another reason why the dogs have also been banned from our bed as of late, even though they don’t wiggle as much as they are just floppy, dead-weight and won’t move when I need them to.)<\/p>\n
Adrianna’s bad dreams were starting to get so common as of late that I was beginning to wonder if they were made up so she could come join us in our room. But last night’s must have been particularly scary, as she woke up with scared, panicky crying. When I asked her about her dream, she told me there was a hawk and it thought she was a bug but she wasn’t really little. Poor thing. I think she may have gotten that from the Tinkerbell movie as there was a hawk that chased Tinkerbell. Adrianna had later asked me if hawks will get people and I told her that it only wanted Tinkerbell because she was tiny like a bug. We also saw a hawk circling over a prairie dog town recently and talked about hawks then too.<\/p>\n
So I let her crawl into bed with us for about half an hour so we could cuddle with her. Then, when it was clear her wiggling wasn’t going to stop anytime soon, she was sent back to her special bed on the floor.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
