Endless Bathtime Fun Matched with Endless Night

This is hardly worth posting but I felt like I wanted to update my blog with something. Nothing too exciting has been happening. Jane wanted to play like it was Reynolds birthday (the things on is head is his birthday hat) and then make a terrible splashing mess which she managed to involve her little brother in the trouble.






On an entirely different subject last night was one of those nights that make the top ten worse nights with my children. After sleeping for maybe an hour it was just long enough to give Jane the endurance to stay up till four in the morning. I tired everything thing short of locking her in her room to cry it out. I would have done this if I didn't fear her waking the other child. She only took an hour nap yesterday and had a evening of fun. I thought for sure she would crash and maybe even sleep through the night. Oh boy was I wrong. I was lying there with her so tired thinking I'm a grown women that can hardly keep my eyes open why can't this kid sleep? Needless to say I was a little short tempered today and had little patience for Jane. I kept telling her that Mommy is not happy cause you didn't let her sleep whenever she asked me to do anything for her. I admit I was acting a little imature but I was so angry especially when she only took an hour and fifteen minute nap today. Did I mention that she only slept till 7:45 this morning. Anyway after I finally got her to bed tonight I went into my room to open the windows and I saw this.

She puts her babies and dolls to bed often but for some reason this killed me tonight and soften my heart towards her. To bad it took all day. I just pray that tonight goes better.

Good thing she is this cute or she might have gotten hurt last night.

She is cute, but sounds like quite a handful! I hope the night went well!

Oh my gosh - that cracked me up! I know exactly how you feel! I'm sorry you had a rough night! Man I'de like to say it gets better but it doesn't! There are just a host of new reasons to keep her up! For example: Last night - Kaitlyn said the roof on her kitchen scared her. She can't even see it from her bed. Sigh.

Sounds like quite the night - I am sorry. I hate nights like those. There is definitely a reason why God made kids so cute or they would never make it out of their childhood alive ;) Hopefully Jane and Anna can meet again soon because I think they would have more fun playing together now. They can tuck Elmo and Monkey in for their naps over and over again :)

You're glad the roll was full?! Alright. I see how it is.
Well - I'm glad Jane spilled water on your butt the other day. LOL!
J/K!
