For the Sake of Dora

I have been having a hard couple of days with Nathan waking up every 3 hours at night. Last night was the hardest cause Jon has school, so needless to say I wanted to sleep in soo bad. So 4:45 this morning, Jon left for work, 5:00 AM Nathan woke up to eat, 5:30 I was back in bed, 6:30AM there was Erika banging on her door and yelling MOMMY (in a very sweet way mind yah) and wanted to get out. So I took her and put her in my bed and tried to go back to sleep. I THOUGHT Erika was falling asleep cause she didn't even try to get up when I put her down. 7:55 I opened my eyes and Erika was not in my room. So I looked in her room, living room, bathroom, kitchen but I couldn't find her. I happened to look at the gate and saw that it was open. I thought to myself that she wouldnt go there because it was dark. But I went and check anyway. Guess what? Erika was in front of the TV. When she saw me she had a big smile on her face and said, Hi Mommy, Dora?

What a brave little girl! She went downstairs in the dark to turn the tv on. She'll do anything to watch her favorite show... Dora the explorer...
