fighting sleep

Sleep has not been awful lately but it also hasn't been good. There has been lots of congestion to deal with; stuffy noses, runny nose, coughing, talking, and the occasional screaming. Naps are shortening and getting harder to take. There is just so much fun stuff to miss out on. Most nights there is at least one wake up (for mom or dad at least) as the talking starts around 2am. If were really lucky a quick locating of the pacifier and we're right back to sleep. On other night s it's up and down every few minutes, sometimes you're back up as soon as you make it back to bed. Tonight she wouldn't even go to sleep. Her typical 8:30/9:00 ish bedtime was met with a screaming fit. We eventually grabbed her and brought back downstairs where she spent her time trying to walk back and forth between mommy and daddy. This fun new skill practice resulted in lots of crashing, collapsing, bum plopping, and tons of laughter and giggling fits.


Then when the giggling ceased she fell asleep in the middle of the floor.
