Battle over the baby....

Text:  WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
*Darryl, get Wren. 
*She needs you, Wanda. 
*No, she doesn't. 
*Sure she does.  She needs her mommy.  Especially during these early years when the bonds of trust form between mother and child. 
*Simply guilt will not get me out of this bed.
*How about guilt and a few pokes with my icy toes?

Rob found this comic strip in the paper this morning.  It hit really close to home.  He just HAD to share it with me.  We both had a good chuckle.

It's SOOOOOO true.

I ALWAYS WIN the battle.  He knows better than to put his cold feet on me.

Icy toes on Melanie = a woman's wrath....which we all know can last for HOURS.

I used to pretend I didn't hear them.  Now, I truly don't.   It's heaven.

:) I don't hear kids either. Eric hears kids and responds before I even know what's going on. I'm not sure though, how much Eric is sleepwalking when he does this.

I wish I could say the same thing. Jeremy almost NEVER hears them. That's OK now though. We're almost always sleeping through the night. Though it blows my mind how hard it is to recover from a night or two of up all night.

Ha Ha! Jeremy NEVER got up in the night to get kids. ("I work" ;p) But I used him on Saturday and Sunday mornings. That made up for it ;)
