Scary Dreams

At 2:30 in the morning last night I was awoken by Jake talking. He was stabbing the air with his fist and saying in an intense voice, "I'm gonna get you Mr. Riddle. You better watch out Mr. Riddle, I'm gonna get ya." I immediately woke Jake up because he was honestly scaring me. He woke up and said in a nice soft voice, "Hi honey. What's wrong?"

This isn't the first time that Jake has talked in his sleep. It makes me want to put a pad of paper next to my bed so that I can record any other crazy episodes. I'll keep you all posted if this happens again.

That is hilarious. I would be freaked out too. Mark has a cousin whose husband sleep talks BAD. She says she frequently awakes to him having full-on sniper/war-hero scenarios in and out of bed.

That is so funny! Was it Tom Riddle from Harry Potter he was referring to? Joe also talks in his sleep and one night I awoke to him yelling "Bilbo Baggins!" very angrily. I thought it was pretty funny. You should keep a notebook by the bed and then tease him mercilessly later. :)

HAHAHAHA!!!! YES! That is great blackmail! You need to get a voice recorder so that he can hear himself, lol! I had the same thoughts as Ashley. Is he reading Harry Potter or something right now? How random!

I think this is a Farnsworth trait. Nathan could tell you stories! He used to get confused on if I was awake or not until we figured out that I can't do math in my sleep. When 2+2 stumps me Nathan knows not to take anything I say seriously.

I don't know who Mr. Riddle is, but I fear for his life. Jake, this is David, don't feel bad. I elbow my wife in the face all the time while we are sleeping.

So funny! When my husband worked at the MTC, he would always dream (and talk) about teaching missionaries, "Do we need to have a discussion about the Sabbath day?" It was hilarious.

That was too funny! I have ultra vivid dream that Forrest is always waking me up from.I think he would think it was funny if it didn't freak him out so much.

Joanna,
I am glad that you found our blog. Yours is a lot of fun too. I am excited to keep up on all of the fun things you guys are doing. Paul says Hello!

Andi said...

Ian totally does that too! One night he got up and "rocked Avery to sleep" in the corner of our room. He was talking to her and singing to her while she was safely in her bed in the other room. Hilarious!

J&J - I've been doing some friendly stalking and found all my Wymount friends on Debbie's blog - hiya! We're in San Jose, so if you ever wonder down south when visiting your parents - come say hello!

haha! So... when Andrew and I were first married one night at about 2:40 a.m. he jumped out of bed ripped ALL the covers off and screamed, "GUPPIES!!!" I turned towards him and said, "what?" To which he replied, "Guppies! There are guppies all over our bed! Guppies, and the bed is all wet!!" "Honey," I replied, "Sit down and hand me the covers." He obediently sat down and handed me the covers. I patted him on the shoulder and whispered in his ear, "Honey, there are no guppies in the bed." After a few moments of silence Andrew said, "Oh, yeah... that would be against Wymount Pet policy, wouldn't it?"

James has conversations in his sleep with me. Usually about computers. One he told me my mouse wasn't compatible with his keyboard and he would have to reinstall...

And my brother also attacked his pillow in his sleep. he thought it was a robber trying to kill his wife.
