Sleepless in Sahuarita

 So sorry that I didn't get a chance to blog yesterday. What a rough couple of days.  For some reason Gianna decided to keep me awake ALL NIGHT on Thursday.  I got maybe an hour of sleep spread out throughout the course of the night.  Yesterday was, by far, the most exhausting day we have had.  When I say "we" I guess what I really mean is me. Last night when I put her down I reminded her that she owed me big time.  Thank God she slept through most of the night.  I think if I would have tried to blog yesterday it would have been a bunch of random delirium. 

Aiden is still dragging around a nasty cough and a runny nose. Richard is pretty much back to his normal self.  He is starting to talk so much. His new favorite words are,"what?" and "why?". Everything is, Why? Why? Why?
We made the mistake of letting him sleep with us and it's been a never-ending battle to get him to sleep by himself. I guess persistence is key but when you have sleepless nights and crying babies, in the moment, it is only about convenience and maintaining sanity!  So to all you mommies out there, give me some pointers on how to get my bed back!!

  1. Well when you find out how, let me know! When we were moving around so much before getting our own place we let Briley sleep with us. Part of it was there were so many questionable things around us that we wanted to maintain the confidence that we were staying together, and the other part was that some nights when trying to put her in her own bed it was so tough that the only way we would all get some shut eye is by caving.
