Sleep...what's that again?

Remember the days when you could go to sleep whenever you wanted and then wake up whenever, lay in bed, watch TV, take your time getting up just to eat something or grab a cup of coffee and head back to bed? No? Me either! It feels like those days never even existed and never will again. I will admit, my children are decent sleepers but lately.....UUUGGGHHHH!!!!

We put Payton in her crib about 2 weeks ago and the first week was great, she would go down around 9:30/9:45pm right after Jack, sleep til about 3am when I just had to go put her paci back in and then wake again around 5am for a bottle and go back to sleep til 7. Then week 2 came and hell broke loose. I have no idea what happened, maybe teeth, yeah, I'm thinking teeth but OHH MMM GEEE it was awful! She as waking up every hour starting at 12:30, sometimes every 40 minutes and it's not like she was happy, she was miserable. I was too, running up & down the hall way to get her before she woke up Jack, not sleeping myself and then having to be mommy, wife & worker all day was exhausting.

Luckily, the last 2 nights have been back to her old self. I know I probably just jinxed myself but I'm really hoping it continues. I am also hoping my children decide to start sleeping in in the mornings a little bit. I know that's a far fetched hope but one can dream can't they? :o)

How is your kid/kids sleeping? Hopefully not everyone is as sleep deprived as I am!
