New record...

Well in eleven and a half years of parenting, I have never had such a night.

Up at 1, then 2, then 3, then 4, then 5, then 6, then 7... for good. I faintly remember when I got him back to sleep at 6:04, a little tear trickling down my cheek. Whatever I did Lord, I'm sorry. Please, just stop the chinese water torture...

You know, for some reason I miss those sweet nights up in the dark with my little ones. Is it dementia? :) I hope this was only one night for you! Ryan didn't sleep through the night until he was 5. McKinley is so easy. For sleeping, that is! Rest well tonight!

Oh Friend, I feel your pain! I am so sleep deprived right now, I can't seem to see through it. I hope your precious is feeling better and of course, we both know it is all worth it!

so sorry. you looked REALLY good for getting absolutely NO sleep. i've had my few nights like that! its awful. i hope it gets better. do you use white noise? i use it in every bedroom! it really helps a lot i think. and i black out the shades too (i think we talked about that--the blanket helped :))

good luck!
