Man, I feel like I’ve been the one to have given birth yesterday..okay, maybe not that bad..but yesterday I came home from the hospital (I was there from about 9am to about 3:30 or so) and I was just so exhausted. I was hungry, had a headache and literally felt like I could just lay down and go to sleep on the spot. Well, I couldn’t go to sleep of course because I had to make dinner, get the girls ready for bed, get their milk and not to mention get their new twin sized beds out of the hallway where they were waiting and install them in their room..which included putting on sheets and blankets and arranging them an acceptable arrangement in their room. Then after all that it was finally time for them to go to bed. Something in their little brains did not translate from learning to stay in their crib beds to staying on their big bed. We had some problems! So at the point where I was almost dizzy due to my tiredness and headache, I had to sit in their room and swat whoever disobeyed and got off of their bed..last night Adelynn was the good one. And the other two were…not so much. (It always changes)
Last night I very much wanted to stay up and watch the new House that was one..but I didn’t make it. I think I fell asleep around 9:30. Josh woke me up around 6:15 as he was leaving for work and I did not feel like I got enough sleep…and I still had a headache..or maybe it was a new one.
To be fair, Sunday was a full day for me of taking the full sized bed that we had here over to my mom’s and exchanging it with her 3 twin sized beds. That was a lot of work and I was very tired Sunday night too. And then yesterday I wasn’t just sitting around all day waiting for the baby to come. I was an active part of the labor/delivery process. Every time she pushed I put my hand under her neck and helped push her up into the curling-around-the-baby position. So I was working. Not as hard as she was by any means, but still working. Anyway, I’m exhausted!
I may need to postpone my new workout until tomorrow.
Wow! You were busy! Sounds like you had enough of a workout and can let yourself off the hook for a day!
Yea, we had the same issue with the twins. We had taken the side off their cribs sometime before they turned 2, and moved them into twins shortly thereafter. We trained them into staying in the cribs with the sides off, but all was lost when the beds were switched. Wierd. Now that they are in bunks, we had to hit it all over again….but in a much more mild version!!

Now do you see why M was in her crib until after 3? He he. Actually, she LOVED her crib. Still does. She wants it back!

That was suppose to say:
