Emma's inner dialogue? (Anna)
Mmmm....milk....mmmm....getting sleepy...eyes getting heavy...must sleep...will open eye one last time to check that my Mums are here...oh, boy...are they are wooden rails of my crib....Cool! ...Last time I played with them, they made noise...I wonder if they'll do the same this time? [bang, bang, bang] Oh yeah...And that reminds me, I can roll over...I'd better do that another fifty times before bedtime....Is that my voice? I think it is! I can roar like a tiger...and is that me squealing too?...Oh, boy, oh, boy...Mumma/Mummy! You're still here...Wanna play?...I know I can make you smile if I giggle enough...there we go....mmm....so sleepy....I really need a nap...head sooo heavy...[head down] one...two..three...Ok. That's better. Now where was I? Oh yeah, I bet I can learn to crawl by morning...bum in the air...kicking legs around...[squeal]...so tired...woe is me, I'm so tired [crying]....Hello again, Mum! Thanks for the cuddle....you can let me go now [wiggle, wiggle]...Oh, boy, is that the sheet I've been sleeping on all this time...Wow! I'd better explore it again as if I've never seen it before in my life...Hey, Mum. Did you know that I can grip the sides of my crib...Look....[sigh] so tired...[rubbing eyes]...I could really use a nap [head down]...one, two, thr-....have I shown you how I can kick?...Man, I'm starving...You think that 20 meals and a gallon of milk is enough for a growing baby?....Come on, Mum. Feed me. Yum, yum, yum....Oh, are they my feet? How interesting! Oh there are my Mums...boy are they looking tired today...seriously, they should have a nap...

What a WONDERFUL account of a long night. Sorry it meant little sleep for the Mums, but I love this post - I guess I have this to look forward to in just a few months. . .
