Day 229

I have officially had my worst night with 2 kids

Literally slept maybe an hour or two last night

Non-consecutive

In 15-30 minute increments

Needless to say I sure felt wonderful this morning

And with my red,dry, puffy eyes I'm sure I looked wonderful too

Between my usual non sleeping baby

I also had a 3 year old with 104 degree fever

The combination is not one I recommend

It started around 11pm with the baby crying (for no apparent reason)

Getting her back to sleep just as my son woke up crying with a high fever

Laid her back down and had 2 children bawling

And only one mommy

Luckily I was able to enlist grandma

And realized how thankful I am to be staying here for situations like these

My son woke at least once an hour all night

And in between that I dealt with the baby up and crying

I feel like I spent an entire night back and forth between them

Which I did

Overtired and annoyed to the point where I got angry at my little puppy snoring, uninterrupted and peaceful on my bed

Lucky dog

My day began at 5 am when I got my son up and put him in the hot shower to help him feel better

I did manage to sneak in two naps with sicky today

One with Grandma's help to take care of the baby

But between a dresser fall and being up checking for head injuries

Christmas eve late night

And the most horrible night in history last night

I'm running on fumes...
