booby drop update

I feel obliged to start this with i'm tired. Real tired. We are fighting colds and flu's and backaches and asthma. The usual suspects.

Parker has been sleeping a little better. He goes to sleep pretty easily most nights. Except on days when he naps because we have reached the black hole of not quite needing a nap but I WILL GET REALLY GRUMPY AND LOUD AROUND 4:30 AND IT WILL LAST UNTIL BEDTIME but then i will go to sleep really freakishly easily.

He's even *knock wood* been sleeping from the time he goes down until around midnight. Which means i get 3 or more hours of uninterrupted time alone. So! You'll be seeing a lot more of me in all your comment sections and i am a lame commenter so watch out! Then, well, he wakes up 3 or 4 more times for *ahem* the booby. So, tired. Always with the tired. Not to mention that i have FOUR kids. That in itself is exhausting. Two kids are exhausting too. I think this whole motherhood thing is wrinkle causing exhausting no matter how many of the little things you have.

So! I have a very cunning plan! Aha! In two weeks we are splitting the kids up and having a girls weekend and a boys weekend. I will be traveling to vancouver with the girls for two nights and, if all goes according to plan, that should be the end of operation booby drop.

Or not. Because i have spoken of these things MANY times before.

Good luck Jess! (and I don't mean that in a sarcastic manner) It sounds like a good plan. (knocking on wood for you)

Oh, girl. I hear ya on the tired front. Your getaway weekend sounds fabulous.

I'd like to see a T-shirt for the post-nursing moms with an arrow about 6 inches from the shoulders and text reading "they used to be up here"

Kim

Yay! Your boobies will thank you!

(sleep is a good thing too)

Good luck. I have ONE child, and I am exhausted all the time. My respect for you is enormous.

And Chair should totally Cafe-Press that t-shirt, before someone steals the idea. I would buy one.
