911 & Twilight

So, we're sitting on the couch yesterday. Ireland grabs the phone, which is a normal thing. Sometimes I am a dutiful mom & I take it away and give her something else to play with. Sometimes (especially if I'm tired or trying to get something done) I figure there's no real harm in it and let her play with it. I was talking to Jason when I heard a noise. Jason said "the phone," so I take it away from Ireland & hang it up. Probably 8 minutes later there's a knock on our door. Jason thought it was a UPS guy or something, so he opens it up. "Wow. Hello Officer...?"
Officer: "Is everything all right here? We got a 911 call from this address." ohhh... Ireland. Yikes. Sorry guys. It won't happen again. Good thing our girls were so dang cute, they couldn't get real mad.
So - that was the adventure of the day yesterday. I'm still working on getting my 3-year-old to identify numbers, but apparently my 19-month-old is a whiz at putting numerals in the perfect order to call the emergency hotline.
At least we know it works!

Another random thing: Last night I had a Twilight dream. I don't know why. I haven't read it in forever, but it was really interesting. I was at the school and there was Edward & everyone else. The thing is that it was like an 80's dream. Edward had a crew cut and everyone was in tights and fluffy bangs. I couldn't figure out if I was supposed to be Bella or just an observing character. It was so strange knowing which scenes would come next and what was supposed to happen.
So - someone tell me the significance of THAT dream...?

I'm wondering if the dream has anything to do with your previous post about knowing what was coming and ruining the adventures. I took a dream class at UNLV all I got out of it is, it is all about individual interpretation.

Too funny about the 911 call. I wonder if that happens often?!?

Luke called 911 too when he was a baby. Only instead of showing up at our door, the 911 dispatcher called back about a minute later and said they got a hang up call. I had to verify our names and addresses and some other stuff to convince them everything was okay. Your twilight dream is pretty funny!

Heidi, that's hilarious your daughter is a rainman genius! Not sure about your dream... maybe it means you subconsciously want to return to the 80's and turn into an 80's lovin' vampire... :)
