I will just count my blessings.
September 3rd, 2008The past two days have been a blur to me. Zoey is waking up every hour at night, which leaves me with about 3.5 hours of sleep per night. Hadley is refusing to take naps during the day, which leaves me with no break and one crabby two year old. And let me be honest, I am not really in the greatest mood either. To top it off, I woke up today with a sore throat, runny/stuffy nose and a headache. Not so good.
We have started putting Hadley down for bed at 7pm since she is refusing to take naps, and that has helped us, but now I am debating on taking her to church or not. She gets really crabby when she is overly tired and I don’t know if keeping her up to go to church is going to cause bodily harm to another child. This is a dangerous game…I think I will end up playing it by ear. We will see if she lasts through supper tonight.
On a positive note, Zoey is holding her own bottle for longer periods of time, which does free me up a little bit to get more done around the house. Despite her lack of sleep, she is always in a good mood and smiling, so I suppose things could get worse!
***Brief update***
I just got a call from Jenna stating that Dawson appears to have the Chicken Pox. I couldn’t plan timing like this. The kids saw Hadley and Zoey at church on Sunday, Monday afternoon, and Tuesday evening…I think we have be exposed. Remember what I said about things being worse?
