My daughter lost her mind


Lyric is a good sleeper always has been.

Every now and then we have issues trying to get her to GO to sleep, but once she's down she's down. Obviously when she's sick, we have some issues, but never as bad as last night...

It started around 1am. Yes I was still up. I was on the last chapters of my book and really into it. The house was completely silent, and all of a sudden I hear a sharp cry that almost scared the pee out of me. I wait a minute and she keeps fussing, so I go in there and give her back her passy, which she couldn't find and at that moment, she rolls over on her back and we made eye contact and I thought to myself... she doesn't look very sleepy.

She lays there a minute more, but then starts crying again.

Here starts the fun for the next 4 hours.

We got her up, we rocked her to sleep, she got in trouble for refusing to sleep, we gave her tylenol thinking maybe she's teething, we did everything possible short of knocking her upside the head to get her to pass out. Nothing worked.

I feel for Jon because he stayed up with her the most, letting me go to sleep (sweet guy), but he finally crawled back in bed around 5am. But at 8am, who do you think wakes up again? Yes, the princess!

She got in bed with daddy and fell back asleep though, so that was nice.

So ya. I have NO idea what was up with her last night.

In other news, my Mother-in-Law got in safe and sound last night. It is so good to see her, although I forget how much French commences when someone of Jon's family comes to visit. Oh well, I'll just hopefully practice more!

I'm tired and can't wake up, but peanut butter crackers are yummy.

i would say must be something in the air, but that's a lot of air between here and there. conrad was up last night too. i sleep with a fan on next to my bed, and since he never wakes up in the middle of the night, i didn't have the monitor on. but around 3am i heard him wailing and from there spent the next forty-five mins holding him and then singing to him while he laid in bed. then jon tells me that at 5am he was back up and he went through the same ordeal to get him back down. and man, are we ever paying for it today. i've never had such a fisasco with him at target then i did this morning. kinda humorous. well, i hope she is better for you tonight, and if not, that's what mother in laws are for. ;)

I agree. Must be something in the air. Piper was the same way starting at about 3 till about 6 am. Crazy!
