Tired

Dec 08, 2009

Things have been a little rough lately because somebody decided waking up everyday around 6am would be a GREAT idea!

I am praying this is just a phase and not a new norm!

I am so not a morning person.

I think it is obvious that I LOVE motherhood and, in particular, LOVE being Little Bug’s Mommy, but there is one thing I dearly miss …

uninterrupted sleep.

Which hasn’t happened in … six months!

And I know, overall, I’ve been VERY blessed with my Little Bug because she’s a good sleeper compared to other sleep deprived parent’s stories I’ve heard. (Of course, I give credit to The Miracle Blanket for that!!)

Speaking of the Miracle Blanket …

Thinking maybe Little Bug’s waking early was due to being tired of being all wrapped up all night long, I decided to see if she would sleep well without the Miracle Blanket for naps. She did fine without it. I gave her the blanket Grace made for her to hold.

We tried putting her to bed without the Miracle Blanket last night and … BIG MISTAKE!

So Daddy wrapped her in the Miracle Blanket and she was out like a light!

Hopefully soon we will be back to waking AFTER the sunrise!
