Sleep?

 

Sleep?  What is that?  I don't think that exists any more! 

It is amazing that parents survive and actually are able to care for their children!  We get by on much less sleep than we used to!  I can remember once when my daughter was with us, that I accidentally put hand soap on my toothbrush instead of toothpase.  That pump was a little to handy!  At least I caught it before I tried to brush my teeth!  I sure did have a clean toothbrush after that!

When we brought Mr. W home from the hospital, we were very lucky that we only had to get up once a night with him.  We would give him his last bottle around 10 or 10:30 and then we'd have have to get back up around 1:30 or 2.  As time has gone by, he has extended that wake up time a little each month.  He is almost 4 months old and as long as that pesky teeth cutting doesn't interfere, we get to sleep in till somewhere in between 5 and 6.  That is awesome at our house! 

The teething does create issues in the wee hours of the morning!  Most mornings we have to get up around 4 with him.  That is not fun!  Especially considering the fact that I was just getting used to sleep again!

Oh well, I know it will return eventually, but until then......I MISS YOU SLEEP!!!!  :)
