Liar, Liar.......

So this week, we have been battling SLEEP!!! We are trying to get back to a normal sleep routine with Morgan going  back to work. Meaning no more staying up past midnight for mommy and daddy. (Well at least for daddy. Mommy is kind of an insomniac.) But apparently, Madeleine has decided that isn't going to work for her. We bathe her and put her down in her crib and we think she is asleep and then 45 mins later we hear from the video monitor........"HIIIIIIIIIIII <clap, clap, clap>, BYEEEEEEEEE." Who is she talking to?!?!?! Did she invite people over for a party and forget to tell us. Why weren't we invited?!?! I try to let her talk it out and maybe she'll put herself back to sleep but, nope! I have to go in there try to rock her but she thinks it's play time. I usually cave and giver her some milk. I'm hoping this is just a growth spurt, that won't last long!

It seems that every time I "brag" about Madeleine's sleeping behavior,s he tries to make a liar out of me! It's like she says, "Oh you told them I'm a great sleeper. You're gonna be sorry you said that!" And she usually does that with anything. Me: She loves blueberries! Madeleine: Refuses to eat them!
Me: She hates naps! Madeleine: Naps for 4 hours! I should just start telling people the opposite. But, I'm sure she'd somehow fix that!

But, as much as the sleep thing is annoying, I just could eat her up! She is starting to say more words and jibber jabber more! Yesterday we received a package from my uncle and aunt. They sent her a DVD of Yo Gabba Gabba Live. It kept her occupied for 45 mins!!! I love that show because it's like her crack. And yes, I am her drug dealer! I do have to monitor how much she watches because she could easily watch it all day! It's nice to throw on when I need to do something in the kitchen :) Here she is all "cracked out".....

God bless the creators of that show!!

So, here's to a better nights sleep tonight!!!
