Night one was beautiful. It was amazing. I thought to myself "How do people find this so hard?". At 6am the next morning, when I was being poked in the back of the head with a Tonka truck, I started to understand.
Since then, I've been using my facebook statuses to send out SOS messages, but so far, no one has come to save me. Here's our run down so far:
Brats in Beds: Nap, Day 2: Epic Failure. While they have only come out twice, they have been in there over an hour playing, fighting, climbing, etc.
Brats in Beds: Bedtime, Day 2:found both boys asleep in the middle of their floor with their blankies.
Beds in Brats Day 3: They were woken up by the cat meowing/howling loudly at 6am. May have to find something better to do with the cat at night, or gag her so she can't make any noise. Naps to come shortly.
Brats in Beds: Day 3: Nap-time Update: Collin is in Chris' bed, Chris is on the floor. Seems like a fair trade to me.
(On Day 4 I was too tired to even update. I may have begun to hallucinate. I can't even remember)
Brats in Beds Day 5: Purchased a video monitor, so I can watch them not sleep.
Brats in Bads, Day 6. When does that video monitor get here, again? Please hurry post office.
You can see where I am. Sleep deprived (more so than when they were born. or when we tried cry it out), and praying to the US Postal Service. We all know that that is just futile. I assume the new video monitor/child stalking device will be here in about 5 weeks, knowing how slow our mail runs. So about the time I will probably stop needing it. So, if in 6 weeks, you find yourself needing one, let me know - I will probably have a never opened one for sale.
And as we approach our lunch time, I know afternoon naps are soon to come. Wish me luck, readers, I need it.
