Sleeping... or lack of

The girls are finally getting on a little better schedule at night. During the day, the eat every three hours (or at least we try to feed them every three hours). Brooklyn has decided that she doesn't like to sleep, when we give her a bottle, she usually try to get her to nap afterward, so in perfect logic, if she refuses to eat, she won't have to go to sleep. Or at least that is what she thinks. So, there is usually a lot of screaming and flipping around to try to avoid eating. However, in the evenings, if they anytime after 9pm, they go to sleep for the night. They both start out in the crib but about 3:30am, the fussing starts and we move Brylee into the swing and Brooklyn into the bed. Then every hour or so "Flipper" does her thing and starts flipping around in the bed because she loses her pacifier. Once it is returned to her, she is happy and back asleep. This usually goes on till about 7:30am. So, in the gran scheme of things, I know we are pretty lucky.

So, yesterday Becky comes into the office and proceeds to announce that Liam sleeps from 7pm-7am. The best part is that she didn't just say it once. This was followed by me politely scratching my nose with my middle finger. This was followed by me thinking... I HATE her. (Not really because she is one of my best friends, but at the time, I definitely hated her.)

She proceeded to reiterate her perfect baby's great sleeping habits at Bunco last night, where again I had to scratch my nose as well as did Dusty, but, I was happy for her... really.

Then, this morning, I get this email from Becky...

In other news, I have to say that karma is a bitch. After 4 days of 12 hours of awesome sleep, little man woke up at 4:45 am with a poopy diaper that had exploded out the side, through his jammies and onto his sheet. He then proceeded to scream until 7am when I loaded him in the car and took him to grandmas…then he fell asleep. Never, ever will I mention how good he is sleeping again. I totally jinxed it so now it’s probably back to 4:30-5am wakeups each morning. Figures…

Love ya Becky!
