Bad Dream

It was a interesting evening at our house. First I was like the Top Chef's and zipped out a balanced meal in 30 minutes or less, maybe I should be Rachel Ray. Once we wrapped up dinner I cleaned up the kitchen and Ella and I went to a friend's house for Ella to play and the Mom's to catch up and do some MOPS work. I was smart and called Kyle on the way home to get the bath water started and Ella walked in, stripped down and played in the bath tub for a while. We later took turns reading books and Ella and I worked on a page in her princess sticker book (Thank you Mindy!).
Ella went to bed easily, only requesting once for me to come back into her room, to put her hair in a pony tail, thought it was old and uncomfortable, but who am I to judge the thoughts and actions of a almost three year old!

I watched some pointless TV for a hour and helped Kyle pack for his trip.

Around 12:30 I heard Ella crying and went in to check, she was still asleep, I tucked her back in and made sure she was ok. Once she turned over and seemed alright I went back to bed. Well, 10 minutes later, Kyle was in her room and she had tears and everything- must of been a bad dream, so she came back with Kyle and slept with us, makes me thankful for a California king bed on nights likes these.

The one good thing to note was that she was up earlier this morning with me turning on lights, and showering, so we were to daycare and work right on time.

I am hoping tonight for happy dreams and thinking Dora and Diego might help get her mind in the right spot, though I am not sure what would cause the bad dreams, I am pretty stern on what she watches before bed.

Who knows.
