Chapter 7

With a thumb planted in her little mouth, a 3 year old Andrea sat happily watching Dora and her best friend Boots. They were on their way to the Tallest mountain. Andrea was on her way to diapers. Neither had much farther to go.

Both Dora and Andrea had gone on an adventure and each was taking them through different places. Dora was had traveled to different parts of the world and Andrea had traveled to different parts of her past life. The most recent traveling being from a 7 year old to now just a little 3 year old girl. It was a fast journey though, taken in a lot less time than Dora’s 30 minute journey.

She had turned on the dvd player and walked away. Upon hearing Dora’s song, the 7 year old Andrea had thought she hit the wrong button. Turning around she went to turn the channel. Andrea hadn’t even really looked at the tv but instead had glanced into the mirror on one of the walls in her room. Sure enough, the reflection of the tv show appeared in the mirror. It still had the same effect. Just this time she watched the tv’s reflection. Also in that mirror’s reflection stood a young girl of 7 and as she stood there watching the reflection of Dora, the tv glowed. It glowed so brightly that the mirror reflected a shine that blinded Andrea. Even though she was so engaged in watching the tv show, she brought her hand to her eyes to block the shine. In doing so she also blocked the hypnotic waves from the tv that held her captive.

Suddenly the regression stopped for a moment in Andrea’s body. But it didn’t stop the room from changing. 7 year old Andrea watched as the room started to change.

The bed disappeared and was replaced by a crib with pretty little princesses on the bed covers. A small pink diaper pail with white lining sat next to the crib. On another side of the room a changing table sat where the toy box used to be. On the side of it hung a bag filled with baby necessities such as diapers, creams and baby wipes. All the big girl toys in the room were gone and replaced with baby ones. There home was a plastic toy box sitting next to a rocking chair that wasn’t there before.

Andrea was getting scared and started to cry. To her it was like a nightmare! She backed up into her new little dresser and plopped down on her butt. Looking up above her she saw the tv was still on. Then it only took a second and now the girl sitting on the floor was a shell of her former self. A cute toddler now sat on the floor with short curly blonde pigtails in her hair. The 7 year old had lost what was left of her little girl looks. Andrea had the sweetest dimples that were only succeeded in cuteness by her adorable little smile. This 3 year old had a chubby tummy with an inny belly button covered just barely by her Dora Pull ups. She stood no higher than 41 inches, if that. Her tiny pink tee shirt had a picture of Boots on it dancing around with Dora and that too, barely covered her chubby little tummy. Baby fat was apparent all over Andrea, so much so in her hands that it made it difficult to wrap them around anything anymore. Andrea picked up her sippy cup with both hands and drank it down, then dropped it to the floor next to another object she wanted very much! Her binky!! The toddler picked up her favorite pink binky and popped it in her mouth then from behind that binky, she giggled, amused with herself.

As if she had just learned to do so, Andrea put her hands down on the floor to push herself into a standing position. Unsteadily she sorta half waddled, half walked over to the rocking chair. Trying to climb up, little Andrea slipped and fell over on her bottom causing the 3 year old to cry out, her binky fell from her mouth. At the same time she pee peed her pull up because she was unable to hold it in as she cried.

Over on the shelf of the changing table sat a small baby monitor that had appeared during the rooms most recent change. Downstairs Nancy heard the cry and ran upstairs. Opening the door she saw little Andrea on the floor crying. Picking her she hugged the toddler to her chest consoling her as she wiped the little tears out of her eyes. Sitting down in the rocking chair with her little girl, she rocked and hummed to Andrea. The 3 year old started to drift off to sleep so Nancy placed her in the crib. Andrea, who had seemed happy to be in her mommy’s arms, woke up as Nancy left the room to go warm up a bottle.

Andrea sat up in her crib and put her thumb in her mouth, watching Dora and Boots finish their journey to the tallest mountain.

Little Andrea wondered whats on after Dora?
