Sleepless Nights!!


As of late we have been having an increase in the occupancy of our bed at night. Mindy and Josh currently share a room they like to play on the bunk beds they just don't like sleeping on them!

Generally the night goes like this Josh rolls over and hits the wall which triggers a night terror causing him to cry hysterically about odd things. For example "who ate my taco" and "wear are my pants". These crying episodes can last up to an hour sometimes longer. The crying wakes Mindy and well we end up in bed with two kids and a cat!

Brian and I thought of a creative way to keep the kids from hitting the wall at night. He thinks it was his idea but I am pretty sure it was mine.

Monday I went out and purchased two large very soft body pillows which I put on the kids beds against the wall. We are happy to say that it has worked so far. Two full nights of sleep!!!!
