So I've more or less been awake since 2am and it's currently 4:26am as I start this post. I suppose somehow my body is trying to prepare itself again for those late night feedings. :-P
But I won't bore you with that. Instead, I'll tell you about the dream I had sometime tonight while I was actually sleeping. Of course, be forewarned that it probably won't make nearly as much sense to you or be as funny!
Jonathan and I were hungry and decided to go to McDonald's. They had this new special that you could get. It was a small hamburger and if you were pregnant, it included your new baby right in between the meat and the cheese...no delivery in the hospital necessary! Convenient, huh? You sacrificed the size of the baby, but apparently it grew pretty fast. As anxious as we were to have this baby, we figured this was a great deal! (I have no idea what the cost was.) I patiently waited until we got home to open up the burger and "deliver" the baby (remove the cheese). The baby was so tiny that you could barely even see it; much care had to be taken to ensure not to hurt it. We also had to cut the cord and remove this sac of something from around it's body. We were able to successfully do this and then carefully look to check the gender of our new baby. It was a girl!! We were thrilled. I took the baby outside in my palm to go swing (we don't even have a swing). As I was out there, I called my mom to give her the news and remembered I should have started breastfeeding already. My neighbors were outside, but I went ahead and did it with no cover up. Remember, the baby is TINY. So the show to the neighbors was all breast and not a lot of baby! And the baby's mouth was so tiny that I'm not sure how it was even possible to eat (and her mouth looked like a lizard's)!! She did though. I go back inside and she's the size of a normal baby. Emma is there and she is happy as can be with this new little baby in her house. She isn't, however, happy that the new baby is wearing her old clothes. (How she remembered? I don't know, it's a dream, remember??). I think this is when I woke up to go to the bathroom, which started this whole insomnia mess!!
Note to self: NO MORE McDONALD'S!!!

The hilarious parts:
you deliver the cheese covered baby
you forget to feed the baby until you call your mom
superpowered breast milk that made the baby grow to normal size in one feeding
That is weird and hilarious. Aren't you glad dreams aren't real?
I always had a lot of weird birth and delivery dreams in the last month or two or pregnancy. It must be because I was so preoccupied with getting it out!
WOW! That was hilarious! My favorite was the cheese baby!
That's a pretty impressive dream! I think I'm with you though- doesn't make McDonald's very appetizing...
That CRACKED me up!!!
Congratulations! (on the baby - not crazking me up) ;) I can't wait to meet her!!!!!
HURRY! Post pictures of Kate before I explode!!! ;)
