Scariest moment of my life...So far

Ok so it was about 2:30 in the morning, I got up, nursed the baby and as usual I went in to make sure that Matalyn was covered up. So when I got to her bed I didn't see her and thought: ok maybe she is under the blanket already, so I felt for her only to find that her bed was empty!!!! I was scared out of my mind, I checked the other 6 rooms in our house and couldn't find her, checked the doors to find them both still locked. Then I started to panic, I screamed for Michael and said that she was gone and went back into her room and flicked on the light...then I saw her feet twitch under the bed......I couldn't believe it!!! The kid had crawled under a bed that was no taller than a foot off the floor!! I was shaking and starting to cry when I found her, and she was asleep when we pulled her out and put her back in bed, I dont even think that she knew how she got under there.
Obviously she was ok, not kidnapped, hadn't wandered off into the neighborhood, or fallen into the river behind our complex, but can you imagine?!?! I mean those of you who are mothers know that finding your babies bed empty in the middle of the night would be your worst nightmare brought to life! Anyway needless to say it was scary, but all turned out well. On the bright side she slept in that morning so mom got more sleep.
Anyway drama aside we have had a pretty fun week. Tyson rolled over for the first time and is turning into quite the little drool machine. Oh and he has to go in for surgery on his mouth since he has what is called a tongue tie. Its where that little bit of skin (well not skin but..I dont knwo what its called so skin) that connects the bottom of your mouth to your tongue is connected all the way to the end instead of stopping like halfway. that probubly makes no sense but it makes it hard for him to nurse so he isn't gaining enough weight, and it will inhibit his speech as he gets older, so we have to have it cut.
Michael finished his semester with a 96.7 GPA, he was completely bent out of shape that it wasn't a 100....I know whatever will he do without the 4.3% right? He is pleased that he did well enoguh to qualify for an academic scholorship though.
Anyway enjoy these fun videos (hopefully I have tried to upload them like a million times and it hasn't worked yet, but if not we'll keep trying)
Love you guys!!!

So glad you guys are doing well! Scary about the empty bed, but glad everything is ok. Also I have heard about the the tongue tie thing and it isn't too bad of a surgery. By now everything is probably done, but hope you guys are well.
