OK, so it is a good thing I could hear her breathing!




Just tonight, Mailee had long been in bed and had already gone through her "routine" of coming out of her room 5 or 6 times in an attempt to stall bedtime. She always has something that she needs. For example, she will take the pants off her doll and then bring them to me because Dolly can't sleep without her pants. Another one I love, is that she may have the "wrong Bo-Bo" (pacifier) or that she NEEDS a doggie or princess toy to hold. I tell her that she can have the toy, but if she comes out again, I will take it away so that it can get some sleep in the toy box. A few minutes later, sure enough, out comes Mailee with the toy in her outstretched arm to give to me as an offering, then she returns to her room whining for the toy!

Anyhow, back to this evening...I hadn't heard from her in over an hour when I realized that I was hearing her breathing and I had no idea how I possibly could be hearing that through her closed door all the way around the corner and down the hallway.
So.... I peeked around the corner and saw this! Apparently, she passed-out midway through another sneak out attempt! She had her "Bo-Bos" with her, so she even brought her sustinance along for the break-out!
Of course, I had to then take a couple of pictures of the hallway view and from inside her room before carrying her back to her bed.

Very funny & dramatic. Maybe you can nickname her Sarah Bernhardt! I had a niece with that nickname. Everything was always such a drama!
