Since we left Utah bedtime is RIDICULOUS and HARD!
I am EXHAUSTED and trying to put Aimi Lark to bed has become too much.
Tonight while sitting with her trying to get her to stay in bed and fall asleep I put my hand on my eyes/eyebrows and Aimi Lark asked "eyebrow hurt mommy?" and I said YES!
Then a bit later I told her to go to sleep very sternly and she told me "Be nice mommy"
Someday I will have my ideal... a bedroom that is just that... a bedroom and she can fall asleep on the floor, in the closet, or under her bed for all I care but for now she sleeps in her playroom with her sister so I have to keep an eye on her.
I just want her to fall asleep so I can have some "me" time...the other two are down and have been for an HOUR... chips and salsa and TV are calling my name but will have to wait til my 2.5 year old decides to sleep.

ReplyDeleteYou poor thing, bedtime whne the kids don't want it is incredibly frustrating! I'm sure it's not heling with the stress already there from not being at home. That's cute that she said those things to you though.
