Sleep, glorious sleep.

Lately, Piper has decided that her
bedtime should be 9:00 p.m. Which
is about an hour too late for Mommy
and Daddy… Needless to say Bedtime
has been a chore at the Rumour Mill Headquarters.

Weekends are hit and miss… she usually
ends up having her nap in the van. This
nap can range from 20 minutes to an hour
and never is enough. So by Sunday night
she is usually pretty tired and will go
to bed and be sleeping by 8:30.

It’s tough to keep a schedule on the weekend
when that is your only days to

shop
do fun stuff like swimming, the zoo
visit friends
kindermusik

Not to mention, sleep is the battle that
we aren’t 100% winning in this house…
So that brings us to last night at the
Rumour Mill Headquarters. Little Miss
Piperoni did not go to bed without a fight.
By fight I mean some crying, lots and lots
of chatting and squirming until she finally
settles down and falls asleep around 9:30.

That’s frackin late! Then Craig and I go
off to bed and I continue to wake every 2
hours to waddle to bathroom. I woke at 2:00 a.m.
and Piper had not arrived in our bed… so I
had to go and listen outside her door and I
could hear her moving around. I went back
to bed and told Craig to get ready because
I was sure she would be making her appearance
soon.

Guess what time she arrived in our bed? 4:30 a.m.
And I didn’t even get to enjoy it! If I wasn’t up
to the bathroom, I was laying “worrying” and “thinking”
about her….

I’m with you, I can’t sleep for longer than a 2hr stretch and I am already missing sleeping for 4 or more hours at a time together. It’s going to be awhile!

I’m glad Piper’s ok! and Happy bday
