If the house is haunted, this ghost really sucks

So last night it's about midnight and we're just about ready for bed when suddenly... we hear the tinkling of music. We both look at each other like, what the hell? Immediately thinking, one of her toys came on downstairs. But then I noticed the little red lights on her monitor... holy crap is that coming from her ROOM??? Somehow, the cd player in her room started playing - her baby einstein lullaby cd. And it was LOUD. I was sure it was a ghost who turned it on. What else could it be? And what does this ghost have against a soundly sleeping baby? Obviously something. Thanks a lot, Ghost.

Leo tried to creep in but little miss ninja doesn't miss a thing, so of course she woke. I nursed her, trying to get her back to sleep, but she was doing a lot of grunting and I was so sure she pooped. So, I changed her diaper - something I haven't done in the middle of the night since she was 2 months old. Of course, my instincts were wrong and it was just pee. So by then she's fully awake, and it was a bit of a chore to get her back down.

Up again she was at 4:00 am from a visit from the other ghost in our house - the Crawl Fairy, who tells her to practice crawling whenever she is in her crib. And then, 6:00 am came up awfully quickly. Oh God will we ever get a full night's sleep again???
