Lately, Ava is waking up 3-5 times a night. If you would have told me when Noah was a month or two months old that we would not be sleeping at night because of Ava and not Noah, I would have laughed in your face!! Not sure what is going on? Sometimes she has to go pee-pee (or is manipulating us to come in) or she hears a noise or just wakes up and cries. Time to pull out my Toddler books to see what to do. Mike and I are beyond tired and starting to lose our patience.
Lately, both our kids think it is appropriate to wake up in the 4 o'clock am hour! (What is that all about?!?)
Lately, I can't sleep. Probably because I am always thinking I hear one of the kids waking up. (Actually, Noah does wake up at night and will babble for about 4 minutes and then go back to sleep and I usually hear him even though I have my monitor on as low as it can go).
Lately, Ava thinks its fun to sit in her high chair.
Lately, Ava has been testing her limits and spending more time in timeout than ever. Some mornings she can clock 3-4 times in timeout before 8am.
Lately, I don't know what day it is.
Lately, I have been getting excited about the holidays. I know it is a ways away, but I have already started my list.
Lately, I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO over this heat. I know that we have at least another month before the mornings and evenings cool off, but come on already. We are cooped up in this house ALL day. It is just to hot sometimes to even run errands.
Lately, I am ready for fall clothes.(Not just for me, but for the kids too) I went to Carter's yesterday and got a head start on the kids fall clothes. Neither of them really have anything. I always say I am not going to pre-buy, because they always grow out of it. I am not sure what size they will be in. I bought Noah some 12 months long sleeves and pants, but am now thinking it might be too small or he will only be able to wear once or twice. So I am not washing until they need to wear them. I bought Ava some 4T shirts and am again wondering if they will shrink. She won't grow as fast as Noah over the next 2 months, so she might be ok.
Lately, I feel so lucky for these two kiddos....
Love this post Sara! I can relate to so much of it - blogging in my head, not knowing what day it is, so ready for the heat to go away it's not even funny, Brayden spending his fair share in timeout, and most importantly feeling lucky for my munchkins! I hope the sleeping issues work themselves out for Ava.
