I’m TIRED.  This cold… wow.  Jerry had it, and I noticed how… virulent it was with him, but I thought, Oh, I’ll just take some Vitamin C.  It hasn’t helped.  Not that I can tell.  Maybe I’m just run down?  I hadn’t thought I was, but… with the baby pulling the antics she has at night, it’s possible.  I’ve GOT to readjust her sleeping schedule, so she’s not up til 3 in the morning.  I also have to get her to where she WILL fall asleep without me at her side, without boobie in her mouth.  LOL… I’ve begun to call her a boobie baby.  She ALWAYS wants to nurse.  She loves it, dearly.  I love it too… but not that much. 

Here’s a contrast for you:

Happy Baby:

NOT so happy baby:

What a difference, eh?  She wasn’t liking being put on the couch.

What a FREAKING DAY it’s been!  Shabree dumped my breast milk from the fridge, and 2 ounces spilled…. that’s a  LOT.  Sammi… dumped an ENTIRE canister of formula into a bottle… I wasn’t able to salvage any but about 6 ounces, which I promptly gave to Alex.  THEN, when I was changing her… she peed on my hand.

Yea.

Sigh.

And I’m just so TIRED.  I have to admit, she’s upstairs screaming…. it’s not like I can take it, and it’s not like anyone else wants her.  I’ll go get her in a minute.  She’s only been up there for 5 or 10 minutes.  I wouldn’t let her cry THAT long…. I’m just so frustrated.  She won’t go to sleep unless I’m asleep beside her.  It gets so tedious.  Of course, right now, I need the sleep.  But also, I am only sleeping 2 hours at a time, because that is when she wakes up and that wakes me up. 

GRRR.

Guess I will go get her.
