Because apparently having ADHD and ODD wasn't enough. The princess likes to keep us on our toes, which translates to "mom and dad will not get a full night of sleep."
You see, it all started a few nights ago with the Princess waking us up shortly after she fell asleep. It took a few days for us to realize what was happening - the walking aimlessly, the closed eyes, the incoherent sleep.
She was sleepwalking.
It was bad one night, where she pulled something out of her closet, seemingly just so she could try and walk on it. It happened to be a playground ball and that didn't end very well.
We tried to gently put her back to bed each time, but that is a pretty hard task when you have a kid screaming things like "No!" and "Okay, I'll get it!" and "fjdkal;fdjiofqwerfhn."
So, now we can deal with the anger issues with a few less hours of sleep. Sounds fun, I know. :)
