My Night Owl

Here is the new reason I don't get enough sleep. Does he look the least bit tired to you? These pics were taken at 10 p.m.






Just when I finally realize that I need to get to bed earlier to get enough sleep and am willing to follow through, along comes baby night owl.

Today I've been up since 4 a.m. This time it was the air filter, then Kai then Kaylin. Thought someone was in the house, couldn't figure out where this funny noise was coming from and it was one of the air filters. It's always something. I've often wondered why God doesn't want me to sleep. What do these almost daily nighttime interruptions have to do with his grand plan for me? Surely there's a better way. :)

I had this idea that once each baby was sleeping through the night I would be too. But being a light sleeper there's no shortage of things to wake me up around here. The cat, somebody's nightmare, somebody has to go potty, somebody's teeth, somebody's cold, somebody snoring, somebody tossing and turning, somebody waking up to cry for 5 seconds and then falling back to sleep, the wind, the crows, an alarm someone set for the wrong time... I could go on and on but I have to go to the dentist. It will be the most peaceful hour of my day.
