This or That?

About two weeks ago, both of my kids were sleeping until 8:15, sometimes even 8:45. That my friends is no longer the case. For the past week or so Jack has been up at 6:30 screaming twinkle twinkle at the top of his lungs. UGH! I know I have been spoiled with Jack's sleeping schedule since day 1, and 6:30 isn't even that bad. I mean if I was working a full time job, I know I'd have to be up way earlier than that. The only good news is that for the past two days, both of my kids have been taking close to a 3 hour nap! Yesterday at nap time, I was able to work for 2 hours and get a quick 45 min nap in myself. Obviously, I know this will only be the case for probably a few more days - if that. So I will soak it up as much as I can right now! I really do enjoy actually having a morning, but I just hate waking up!!! I used to think I'd rather sleep in and only have my kids take a 1 hr nap, but now that I've experienced these 2.5-3 hour naps, I think I can deal with waking up a little earlier. How much do you want to bet now that I've blogged about this, my kids won't nap at all today? HA. We have started putting Finn in his crib to sleep at nighttime. It's amazing not having to plug in that stupid monitor too! Although it's frustrating because when he does wake up for a few minutes crying, I can't just shut the monitor off - and I worry he will wake Jack. Not to mention, Jack wakes Finn up in the mornings by his extremely loud singing. (side note, Jack has now started making up his own lyrics to the tune of twinkle twinkle - hilarious!).  I am definitely going to keep putting Finn down for his naps in the basement, because Jack is not a very sound sleeper during naptime.


Speaking of naps - our entire road is getting torn up very soon. All of the surrounding streets are gravel right now and I'm just waiting to get blocked into my house. I am NOT looking forward to this and although the trucks will entertain Jack to no end during the day, I have a feeling it will be too loud to nap. The other day our house was literally shaking and they were working on the road a block away. HELP!


My baby is going to be 6 months tomorrow. Can you believe it? I have to get a video of him scooting, it is so cute!


Who watched New Jersey Housewives last night? Danielle is soooo annoying. Seriously, she is the most annoying housewife of them all. I hate her. And the bachy? Ali, cut your hair! And please, for the love of God - choose Roberto!

  2. You are so right about how it will change now that you blogged about it! That always happens to me for sure. I blog about something going one way for a couple days in a row...then it changes that night. Dumb! I missed Housewives unfortunately. But you can totally tell that ali's hair is extensions. gross. stringy.
