I wonder when I'll sleep again...

I was so tired a little bit ago...I could barely keep my eyes open. Probably from the lack of sleep I've had in the past couple weeks. We had Joseph's baptism to prepare for, then this consignment sale has really taken more time than I had imagined. Eh, or it could be that when my head hit the pillow at 2am last night, after tagging more clothes than I ever knew the kids had, that Joseph decided he wanted to wake up for a snack...or maybe a cuddle...either way, I found myself gazing into those little eyes as I drifted off around 2:30am. They say not to look into their eyes at night because it's a huge adrenaline rush for a baby...."they" being the experts, you know, the ones that could resist making eye contact with those most gorgeous little eyes. Pssh, "they" don't know what they're missing. That little gaze makes my heart flutter. Yeah, so I fell asleep around 2:30-3, then the alarm to get my big man child/teenager up went off at 6am, then I drifted back off to sleep around 6:30am when I heard wailing from Madeline's room...she has become a total drama queen, never used to make a peep before about a month ago, that wailing then woke Joseph up and, well, there I was, a little over 3 hours sleep and up for the day.
Today kind of went downhill after that Why? Because I didn't get anything done due to printer complications...every time I'm counting on our printer, some crazy fluke happens that takes HP support half the day to fix. Seriously. I was on the phone with them for an hour and a half, waited for them to call me back for two hours, then another hour and a half...then it's miraculous fixed.Great. Oh, but not before they ask me if I want to get their wonderful extended warranty program...........ermmmmm....half my day was wasted, no effin thanks, when I call and you say you can't talk to me because it's out of warranty, well, then I'll just throw it against the wall rather than give you anymore money for this dumb printer. Ridiculous. It's supposed to be a great printer, just wish it worked the way it's supposed to (Sorry, honey).

Back to me feeling tired. Yep, thought I'd be in bed right now considering I'm running on just a few hours sleep. I had a beer that made me even more tired, started wrapping up the loose ends of my consignment merchandise, was minutes away from hitting the pillow....then, I hear my little Jo-fluff, *sigh* So, I rubbed his back, he fell back asleep, but I know that's not what he really wanted and he'll probably be calling out for me again soon. He loves to be WITH me, NOT in his crib. He sleeps his best when he's nestled up against me. And now I'm waiting...waiting for him to yell out, "Hey, Mom! Just put me in your bed so you can get some sleep!!!". It's coming, I know it is.

I wonder when I'll sleep again....like really sleeeeep... the way I used to before this bouncing baby boy and this drama queen toddler girl.haha. Probably never. Oh, well, it's totally worth it...I think...check back with me in a few days.
To bed I go! Who knows when the fluff will wake up again...and the 6am alarm comes way too fast.

How can you resist me???
