night of no sleep! December 2, 2007
one of those long nights… Sofie had been fighting naps for a couple days and then fought going to bed Wednesday night. Ron had not been getting good sleep because of his back and was passed out by 9 PM (UNHEARD OF!). I finally got the kids to bed and went to bed myself. Shortly after, Sofie started crying so I decided to be nice wife and turn the monitor off in our room and take care of Sofie. I ended up having to take her down to the couch and we snuggled. Then Ava woke up crying, as I sent her down to the other couch Aden woke up crying. So I went and settled him down…while Sofie and Ave were crying. Once he was good, I went back down to Ava and Sofie. Ava had no problem falling asleep on the couch but Sofie tossed and turned so much. It was probably 4 AM before we found a comfy position (more so for Sofie than me!). Then it was 6 AM, and Aden was coming down to wake us all up! UGH. I just wanted to sleep! but couldn’t, had to get up for Ava’s speech class. I think I have finally recovered from that night, coming from a person who needs at least 8 hrs of good solid sleep a night! The night probably could have gone better if I didn’t give up the bed so Ron could have a peaceful/quiet night! He owes me!
