Ummmmm...maybe I can postpone this second-child thing for about ten years?

Heather said...

ahhh how frustrating...I am tired and I only have one / and not a newborn at that...

All I can say is "wait until you have 3." It gets infinitely more fun. And if you think that the oldest one will be sleeping through the night before that time, think again!!

We basically just don't sleep at our house!! It's super fun!!

What a snapshot of your night/day/life! I would probably need to be reassured about the flu thing too, even though I would know he didn't have it. Hope the two boys take a nap at the same time today!

Gosh, you poor thing! We feel for you. . .it's been a month so far for us of exhaustion. It hasn't gotten better yet but I've gotten used to it which really has helped. Just keep going and sleep when Ty sleeps. . .you'll get through this! Oh, try gas drops if you already haven't tried that for McKay. They're miracle medicine!

Anytime you have to do laundry at 1:20 in the morning it is NOT a good day! :) Good luck!

Megan said...

Yeah, I was wondering if you could watch Brooke for us all next week...ha ha. Ok, I really wouldn't do that to you. Wow Meg, I don't know what to say. That is pure crazyness!

Kim said...

Well, Asher is 7 months and I am still up 4-5 times a night with him! I feel ya girl! I am proud of you for being such a good mommy of two!

Doug said...

YIKES. What a night! But how could you appreciate the good nights if you never had bad ones, I guess?
