At night, when everybody is fast asleep, dad starts to snore. Mom is worried that the snoring might wake up the baby. How can she stop dad from snoring? Take his pillow away? Hmmm, that doesn't work. What about rubbing his stomach? No good either. Roll him over onto his side? Ah, it finally stopped! Now, she can get back to her happy dreams. But soon, dad starts to snore again! His snoring gets louder and louder, and the baby wakes up and starts to cry. Mom can't stand it any more. She storms out to get something. Oh, it's the baby's pacifier! Dad sucks on the pacifier and peace comes at last. Finally, it's really time for the family to dream sweet dreams. Good night, everyone!
