SAMANTHA & ZACK: ZB & HONEY'S 1st SLEEPOVER

I WAS BEYOND EXCITED....YOU ALL KNOW HOW CRAZY EMOTIONAL I GET ABOUT ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING AND FEEL LIKE I HAVE TO CAPTURE EVERY MOMENT ON CAMERA……ZB WANTED TO KILL HONEY WHEN I MADE HIM GET UP TO TAKE A SHOT OF US IN THE BED…..I AM SO SORRY FOR MY APPEARANCE IN ALL THE FOLLOWING PICTURES BUT IT IS NOT ABOUT ME!! I HAD TO DOCUMENT THIS SPECIAL NIGHT AND WANTED TO BE ABLE TO LOOK BACK YEARS FROM NOW AND REMEMBER IT…..

FIRST LET ME SAY THAT IF YOU KNOW ME VERY WELL THEN YOU KNOW I DON’T REQUIRE TONS OF SLEEP…I TAKE “POWER NAPS” OFTEN AND CAN TAKE THEM ANYWHERE AND ANYTIME. I TRULY COULD SLEEP ON A TILE FLOOR WITHOUT A PILLOW….SO I KNEW THAT B WOULD NOT BOTHER ME ONE BIT.

HOWEVER, (AND HE WILL ROLL HIS EYES WHEN HE READS THIS) BUT ZACK NEEDS TO BE “PAMPERED” A LITTLE BIT….OUR KING SIZE BED IS NEVER BIG ENOUGH FOR JUST THE TWO OF US!! IT DOESN’T MATTER HOW MUCH ROOM I GIVE HIM HE CONTINUOUSLY TELLS ME TO “GIVE ME A FEW INCHES” OR SAYS “SAMANTHA, I AM FALLING OFF THE BED”. SO NOW THAT I HAVE GIVEN YOU A MENTAL PICTURE OF OUR SLEEPING HABITS YOU CAN ONLY IMAGINE ADDING AN 18-MONTH OLD IN THE MIDDLE OF THAT MADDNESS…..

BLAKELY ABSOLUTELY “FLOPS” ALL NIGHT LONG.

IT IS SO FUNNY TO ME. I GIGGLED THROUGHOUT THE NIGHT.

I SAY "FLOPS" BECAUSE THAT DESCRIBES IT BEST. SHE IS LIKE A LITTLE FISH OUT OF WATER. HER WHOLE BODY WILL COME OFF THE MATTRESS AND THEN WHATEVER POSITION SHE LANDS IN....WELL THAT IS HOW SHE STAYS UNTIL THE NEXT "FLOP" OCCURS. THIS BABY FLOPPED A WHOLE 360 DEGREES. HER WHOLE BODY WAS ON TOP OF A PILLOW AT THE HEAD OF THE BED. THEN ANOTHER TIME SHE LANDED UPSIDE DOWN IN THE BED AND THEN FLAT ON HER BACK WITH ALL HER LIMBS STRETCHED OUT AS FAR AS THEY WOULD GO. THEN, SHE WAS FACE FIRST INTO THE MATRESS….

BUT THE POSITION OF THE NIGHT BY FAR WAS WHEN SHE LANDED HEAD FIRST RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF HONEY’S BREAST BONE!! HER LEGS WERE STRAIGHT ACROSS THE BED IN ZB’S DIRECTION.

AT THAT POINT ZB WAKES UP AND SAYS “SAMANTHA CAN YOU MOVE HER I AM ABOUT TO FALL OFF THE BED!”

IF LOOKS COULD KILL....HE WOULD BE A DEAD MAN THIS MORNING.

IN FEAR OF WAKING THE BABY I “WISPERED SCREAMED" AT HIM, “EXCUSE HER FOR TOUCHING YOU WITH HER TOES BUT HER HEAD IS IN MY DIAPHRAGM AND I CAN’T BREATH".

LATER IN THE MORNING, WE LOST THE PACI!! SHE SLEPT WITHOUT IT FOR A COUPLE HOURS BUT I KNEW WE HAD TO FIND IT BECAUSE WHEN THE MOMENT CAME THAT SHE REALIZED IT WASN’T IN HER MOUTH WE WERE GOING TO BE IN TROUBLE IF WE COULDN’T PLUG IT IN …..

SO AS BAD AS I HATED TO WAKE UP THE PRINCE, I SAID “ZACK, YOU HAVE TO FIND THE PACI.” HEHEHE I JUST LAUGH THINKING ABOUT HOW TIMES HAVE CHANGED…..WATCHING ZACK DIG THROUGH THE COVERS FOR A BABY’S PACI LIKE HIS LIFE DEPENED ON IT WAS PRICELESS!!

ZB FINALLY FOUND IT AND I HAD IT ON HAND AS SOON AS IT WAS REQUESTED.

THE REST OF THE NIGHT WAS PRETTY QUITE. I LOVED SNUGGLING WITH B.

I WOKE UP OFTEN JUST TO CHECK ON HER.

SHE USUALLY GETS UP AROUND 6:30AM AT HOME BUT I GUESS HONEY AND ZB’S BED WAS SUPER COMFY BECAUSE SHE DIDN’T OPEN THOSE GORGEOUS EYES UNTIL 7:50 EXACTLY.

SHE SAT UP AND GRINNED BIG AROUND THAT PINK PACI! I SAID “GOOD MORNING PRINCESS”. SHE LAUGHED AND KEPT LOOKING AROUND TRYING TO FIGURE IT ALL OUT. THEN WITH THE MOST SERIOUS LOOK, SHE LOOKED STRAIGHT AT ME AND POINTED TO HER ZB AS IF TO SAY HONEY "LOOK WHO IS IN THE BED WITH US".

I SAID “THAT IS YOUR ZB CAN YOU GIVE HIM KISSY KISSY AND SAY GOOD MORNING” ?SHE PLAIN AS DAY SAID “GOOD MORNING” AND GAVE SWEET KISSY KISSY ALL OVER ZB’S FACE!

WE TALKED AND WATCHED "LITTLE BILL" ON NICK JR WHILE OUR CINNAMON ROLLS COOKED. HER MOMMY AND DADDY JOINED US FOR BREAKFAST!

SHE LOVES PLAYING WITH CHLOE.

IN THIS PICTURE SHE IS WIPING CHLOE'S MOUTH AFTER SHARING

SOME OF HER CINNAMON ROLL...

ZACK AND I ARE SO BLESSED TO BE “ZB AND HONEY”!

LAST NIGHT WAS THE FIRST OF MANY NIGHTS I HOPE!!!

WHEN WALKING OUT THE DOOR THIS MORNING LEIGH TOLD BLAKELY TO TELL ZB AND HONEY SHE ENJOYED IT……THAT SWEET BABY SAID “JOYED IT” AND BLEW US KISSES…..TALK ABOUT MELTING HONEY’S HEART!!!
