HP and the Sleepless Nights

First, the happy note...this week the girls went to the midnight showing of Harry Potter. I know, we're crazy. There were a group of 8 girls (most of us moms) staying up until 3 am to watch this movie then getting up at 6 or 7 with our kids. Ouch. It was super fun though! We got there about 9 pm to save our seats which was perfect. Lots of good chatting time before the movie. I put E to bed at grandma's house (because B was out of town) so I could escape. When I got home at 3 am grandma was up with this crazy girl who hasn't been sleeping. So this sleepless night continued until about 4 when E feel asleep for another 2 or 3 hours. I'm not made for these sleepless nights anymore!

This week has been crazy. B was out of town on business (again) and I had several things going on. It didn't help that it was a teething week for E! She has been a nightmare. I know what they mean when they say it feels like you have a newborn again. She normally is a rock when she sleeps but has been up every 2 hours all through the night. She won't eat and is super cranky....just not my normal happy E. Grandma gave her a fudgesicle (she prefaced it with informing me of the sugar-free nature of the treat) to help with the teeth pain. This was a mess for grandma to clean up! Of course the night B got home E is sleeping through the night again so he doesn't have to experience the misery. Somehow that is how it goes every time.
