Episode V Daddy Meets FutureBoy

OK People,

Everything came to an abrupt end at the begining of April.

FutureBoy continued to not let me sleep, mommy and daddy got increasingly frustrated, both Grandmas and Grandpas were enlisted to help give mommy and daddy a break every once in a while - so they could get some sleep and have a normal dinner (together) for their anniversary.

FutureBoy always seemed really happy to see Grandma and Grandpa, and he always seemed happy to see me off when I would leave with them for a day or an overnight stay. Sometimes he would risk being seen by mommy or daddy so that he could say goodbye to me and tell me to have fun.

Once I even saw FutureBoy sorting laundry while mommy and daddy were handing me off to the grandparents. I thought that was really odd and risky behavior.

Then it happened.

Daddy was getting dressed and mommy was in the shower and I was playing in my old room (you know the one with that crib in it) and FutureBoy tried to run into my new bedroom and grab Zoe for me to take to the grandparents house.

Just then I heard daddy call out to mommy that HE was going to grab Zoe for me to take to the grandparents house.

He went into the bedroom that FutureBoy was in. I knew FutureBoy was in trouble. He always used the attic to sneak in and out of the house never the back bedroom, there is nowhere to hide in there...

I braced myself for trouble,

and here is what I heard.

Daddy:

There was a weak response from FutureBoy then I could make out Daddy's reaction:

Daddy asked some short questions like "How?" and "When?" a bunch of things like that. They started talking dates and then years and then some really technical stuff from that book FutureBoy gave me (in Episode I) and I heard daddy yell:

I guess being yelled at set FutureBoy off a bit and he got a little defensive and then daddy came back with:

Daddy lectured for a minute and ended with:

Then suddenly Daddy apologized and told FutureBoy that he would do everything he could but for now:

Daddy turned very comforting to FutureBoy, he sounded the same way that he sounds when he comforts me in the middle of the night, it made me feel better.

Just then a second FutureBoy appeared behind be and said: "Hey I forgot to say goodbye, but since I have a time machine I just came back to make sure I caught you before you went to the grandparetns"

just as FutureBoy gave me a hug Daddy came out with FutureBoy and since I had been listening at the door the whole time

he saw two FutureBoys...

I know daddy I've been there. It is weird to see two at the same time, but don't worry they are the same person...time travel is weird like that.

FutureBoy apologized and explained that he was on his way as well but they should all three talk for a minute back in the room.
When Daddy came out both FutureBoys were gone and I asked Daddy where they went:

I felt sad a bit that FutureBoy seemed to be gone forever and I wanted the book that he gave me as a comfort but daddy took it away and said:

Oh well it was fun while it lasted...

Time to guess... Who is FutureBoy?

I really want you to try and guess who Futureboy is - so I know I didn't make this all up for nothing.

Episode IV (A New Hope) Zoe Meets FutureBoy

Allright everybody here is the deal...

I feel as though I am completely victorious over mom and dad with the whole crib thing. I haven't spent even a minute in there in months.


So I assumed that FutureBoy would be really up in arms about this. He has always been focused on getting me back in my crib.

But after a while things changed. Sure he seemed to get more and more nervous as I spent less and less time in my crib. But once it became apparent (around February or March) that my crib days were behind me. FutureBoy started changing.

I would try to sleep in the bed with mommy or daddy and FutureBoy would purposefully wake me up. He was always making me get mad and he wouldn't let me get comfortable. I don't know how but the bedroom I was in would always get to warm or I would get itchy, or he even tickled me when I was about to go into a good sleep.

I would cry to wake up mommy or daddy but he always disappeared before they opened their eyes. He is really good at hiding.

The month of March has been really hard on mommy and daddy.

FutureBoy eventually came to me one day while I was in my high chair eating some bologna


and said that he was sorry.

I just looked at him and waited for further explanation.



All he said was that he had to get this figured out in the next few weeks or everything would be over for him.

I had no idea what he was talking about.

I did notice that he spent more time listening in on mommy and daddy talking to grandma and grandpa.

Sometimes he would get frustrated some times he would be more pleased.

I know that when he got frustrated he would not let me sleep well at all.

FutureBoy would always apologize, but boy he sure is annoying at this point.

The other thing that has been happening is lots of mommy and daddy's friends are about to have babies. So i have seen quite a few tiny babies recently.

I like to say "baaaaybeee" really high and soft whenever we talk about them...or whenever I see a really small piece of food - it's a baaybeee piece of food.

Hey, don't make fun I am just starting this whole "using words" thing.

I might not know how to express which food i want to eat each day



or what toy I want to play with each evening. But I am starting to piece together several words at a time and I can surely recognize which songs daddy plays that I really like.

FutureBoy can mess with me at night while were are all trying to get some sleep but I know he likes watching me have fun playing with the whole family...

He really seems to smile right along with me when I dance and sing...
I even caught him playing with my Zoe doll one night when I climbed out of bed and went looking for mom or dad in my old bedroom.

What a weirdo...oh well....

Episode III Ciglio Meets FutureBoy....

Hola people!

I feel victorious.

I have completely convinced my parents to give up trying to put me in my crib.

Well, OK... I have convinced my mother. Dad still tries every once in a while, but mom comes through in the end and I have a nice safe warm parent to snuggle up to.

Remember, even though Futureboy seems like a pretty nice kid and all, if HE gan get up to my window somehow like he did that first time I saw him, that means someone else might too. And I am not staying in that room by myself anymore.

It was like a jail cell to me...


Since I dont have to worry about that anymore I have decided to learn a little more about FutureBoy. Or the FutureBoys, I'm still not really sure why there were two of them before...

Since the one FutureBoy really seemed to freak out when I hid behind the attic door in my room, maybe I can hide some more and get him to slip up and reveal a little about himself.

I am good at hide and seek, I play it with Daddy all the time.

So I hid behind my crib


FutureBoy found me right away.

I hid in my closet,


FutureBoy guessed where I was but instead of getting me, he would just make some noise and wake up mom and she would try putting me back in the bed. FutureBoy would always laugh at me when Mom got up like this. He would say:

I even hid downstairs (since I am so good at walking up and down stairs with out holding anyone's hand).


Eventually Futureboy found me, he was good at playing hide and seek and he seemed to really know his way around the house. How much snooping around has this kid done?

One day I put on my coat (all by myself which I am working on doing all the time) and tried to hide outside. But I remembered that it was really cold outside and there was a lot of snow. Which mommy told me was gone until next winter, but we seemed to get a whole lot more of it.




So I started closing doors behind me everywhere I went (another of my newly found favorite things to do - especially when playing hide and seek).



Again FutureBoy is a good seeker, and really he is a pretty good sport. He is never really mad when he finds me.

The most trouble I gave FutureBoy was when I hid in the tub.



Once he found me in the tub he sat on the floor and pulled me out and had this come up right behind him...


He was not frightened, he simply said:

"Hey old girl, It's been a while..."

Old? Cilgio just turned 5.


Why does he refer to her as OLD... Oh yeah he's from "the future", supposedly.

I don't know about that but, what did he mean?

Again that FutureBoy confuses me.

It took me a long time to fall asleep trying to think about what that statement meant....

So I reverted to an old trick to help me sleep...
