First, a million apologies to my Oldest Son when you read this in the future. It was just too strange not to share with the world.

Last night, I put the boys to bed, and my oldest was happy because it meant that he’d be going to school the next morning. As I usually do, I went to my room (next to the boys’ room) and called TheBoy to see how his night at work was going. We talked for a bit and I was convinced that I should get some sleep. So I turned off the lights, let Zorro cuddle up to me… and dozed off.

Then I was awoken to hear my oldest talking. I got up (Zorro followed) and we investigated. There he was, standing, and peeing (while in his underwear) on the floor. Then he laid down on his bed and was completely asleep.

That’s right, my son was not just sleepwalking, but actually thought he was at the bathroom. So I did what anyone would do. Cleaned up the mess, put dry undies on my son and then called TheBoy to tell him what his son did. Then Zorro and I went back to bed.

What’s the weirdest thing that you have done, or that your kids have done in their sleep? I wasn’t a sleepwalker or talker, but I did sleep with my eyes partially open when I was really little. Which, naturally, freaked my mom out.
