In fact, she loves scooby doo and 'goosebumps' movies. But you put on the 'violet boregard' part of the old willy wonka where she blows up into a blueberry and my daughter covers her eyes and shakes.<br /><br />The man, the dad and the husbandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04330270689368482652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14993459.post-52673946224476580392009-11-16T17:31:55.397-08:002009-11-16T17:31:55.397-08:00this post tickles me... especially cause no.9..hik...this post tickles me... especially cause no.9..hiksmila.ibunajihahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02146678391827301135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14993459.post-62419119406360732202009-11-13T04:42:53.525-08:002009-11-13T04:42:53.525-08:00Before going to sleep, place a glass of water on t...Before going to sleep, place a glass of water on the bedside table. Make sure you don't go to sleep with a hungry tummy nor a full one. I also have heard this will not keep your nightmares away but also the real monsters that might break in to your house.

Plus, how annoying is it to have them wake up and run into your room for help? So I suggest a cone of silence over the kid's bed. Won't stop the nightmares, but you won't hear them and she won't be able to get up and interrupt your precious sleep. <br /><br />Then again, if I am not getting any sleep, why nonlineargirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05414675024101618604noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14993459.post-11057951693789259322009-10-09T21:27:23.484-07:002009-10-09T21:27:23.484-07:00This is knee slapping Tony!
