Today was the second morning in a row where Peyton woke up crying and saying she was all done at 2:30am. Then she cries for 15mins and falls back asleep and sleeps till her normal wake up time (6). I felt bad for DH this morning. He worked at 4 today so his alarm was set for 3:10. Peyton basically stole his last 30mins of sleep from him.
This is her new thing- she climbs the couch, pretends she's struggling, then yells "Mommy catch me! Crazy trust exercise!" Apparently we've watched Frozen one too many times....
I am getting really tired of the 12-18 hour days MH is doing. Aside the fact that we'd like him around, he is fucking useless when he is here. He sits there while I'm running around getting breakfast, dressing A, trying to get myself ready, and doing he dishes from when he ate when he got home last night. And he just keeps saying "what can I do?" Look around and pick something! But I can't say anything, because he just worked an insane shift...
Ugh, MEN!
I feel ya. H is on an easier rotation now, but when he's just on the general wards (which is usually), he works 12-18 hours and is useless when he's home, but I also can't say anything bc he was working and shit.
Daniel rarely lets me take pictures of him and it's even rarer that he wants to snuggle with A but every now and then he does this. And this one cracks me up (he wS getting tired)

bebeetmoi and @bean lol!! I feel ya both. If the manipulation is this bad now, I'm dreading 12-13. We can preorder straight jackets together.
unclejesse and rjamz junk punches for your H's from me. If it helps, I reminded mine that when he takes the trash out, he needs to remember to replace the bag in the garbage can and he gave me a dirty look. I raised my eyebrows and he said "sorry. I just thought you were going to say 'thanks for remembering it was trash day'". ::long pause:: "you're going to post this on the board, aren't you?"

Natalie woke up yelling, "no no no" last night and when I went in she was pointing at the ceiling saying, "this! Chase Natalie." She was having a nightmare. I hate when she has them. It breaks my heart every time.

DD woke at 4am, and despite my best efforts, never went back to sleep. At 6:15am we had this conversation-
Me: "DD why were you awake so early in the morning today?" DD: (shrugs her shoulders) "Because I wanted to see you, so I yell 'Mama mama mama mama!' and then I see you!!!" (Maniacal giggles ensue) Me: "Yes, I came and got you but sweetie mommy is tired so early in the morning" DD: "oh mommy just stop it. If I don't sleep, you don't sleep. It's OK, OK?"
Yes child, yes. When you don't sleep, I don't sleep. DEVIL!
This is adorable!! It probably wasn't at 6:15a, but nonetheless
I just did the daily spin in candy crush, it landed on the jackpot, I was just getting ready to screenshot that puppy and the damn thing jumped to a lollipop hammer after a VERY long, teasing pause.
Sounds like it was a rough night for sleep for lots of kiddos. We're in that boat too. MH and I went out for dinner last night because it's Restaurant Week, and reservations weren't until 8. So we didn't get home until later than we're normally up on a weekday night. W was up 2-3 times last night needing to be settled and then decided that 5:45 was a good time to get up this morning (usually sleeps til 6:30/6:45) Mommy is having some Red Bull this morning. Also, MH is going to a hockey game right after work, so I'm on my own with W tonight too. Here's to hoping for an early bedtime.
On a cute note, we were driving to DC this morning and he starts singing along to Taylor Swift's "Shake it off." So either he's paying more attention to what's on the radio or they are just playing that song soooo much that he knows it now!

Has anyone ever landed the jackpot?
I think we decided that NO, no one ever wins the jackpot! For as many people on here that play, I'm pretty sure that no one has hit it yet
What is with 4AM? I woke up to pee then and couldn't fall back asleep, so I've been up since.
We had two huge sleep firsts last night. When I was putting C to bed, he asked for another book. I told him I'd read one more book if he promised to go to bed right after, and he agreed. I finished the book, he put it away, and then he announced, "okay, bedtime!" and hopped in bed. He has NEVER voluntarily gone to bed in his life.
He woke up around six and came into our room. After tossing and turning in our bed for 45 minutes, he turned to me and said, "I want my bed." Ummm, what? He has NEVER voluntarily left our bed nor asked for his.
Just found out I got accepted as press for the metro cooking dc event in November. Bobby flay, guy fieri, and a lot of dc chefs will be there. Super excited.
I will pay you $50 to put a "Kick me" sign on guy Fieri's back.

I was in charge of a ceremony at work last night so I didn't get home until after 8. Poor S was up all night coughing. I feel so bad for her.
We are having a Halloween party tomorrow and I really don't think anyone is going to come. It's making me sad. I wish we had never planned it and I could just relax tomorrow instead.
I could not get Violet to sleep until 1 am last night. Most nights she cluster feeds from her 9:30-10 wake up until midnight or so. I do not like.
H is working today and tomorrow so I'm not sure what today feels like, but it doesn't feel like a Friday.
I got a call from Service Canada this morning and they're finally processing my mat leave benefits. I haven't had a pay cheque since Sept 18. We need it!
