At the Risk of Sounding CRAZY...

Does anyone else hear their kids screaming when they aren't? Countless times I will be in the shower or taking a nap and be convinced that one or more of my children are crying. I will turn off the shower (shampoo still in hair) to try to get a better listen, you know, to figure out which one it is... I am always stunned when I hear an echoing silence in return. I will be jarred from a nap with utter conviction that I hear my 2 year old bouncing off his bedroom walls instead of napping, only to find when I barge into his room with game face on that he is SOUND asleep nestled peacefully under his covers.

This happens many times. I am going insane.

almost every time I shower while Charlie is napping I'm convinced he is bawling his eyes out. It's always just the pipes. On the flip sleep I don't know how many time I've woken up in the middle of the night to him screaming and when I go in to get him I notice the signs that he has been crying for a really long time.
