Last night was one of the longest nights of my life. Evie refused to go to sleep last night. She didn't finally fall asleep until after 11:00pm, which means I didn't get to bed until after midnight. Well, she decides to wake up at oh, I don't know, 4AM! She said she was hunry (hungry) So we go downstairs and she eats some cottage cheese. I try to lay her down SEVERAL times and she would just cry and cry and cry. Finally, I had her come in our bed....still NO SLEEP! 7am rolls around and I have to get ready for work. Yes, we had to work from 8:30 am - 1:00 pm today! All the while, I just KNOW she is going to be cranky pants Evie today. I check on her after the shower and she was still awake watching Max and Ruby, her favorite show. After I get ready for work I go downstairs at 8:00 am and this is what I find.....
Boy, was that fun waking her up for work 10 min later. Poor thing. She was exhausted all day...........she did have a rather large bowel movement later in the morning and that is the ONLY thing I can think of that would have kept her up all night long. Oh, the joys of being a mother :) Sweet, little stinker!

Ohh, I'm sorry Em, I hate days/nights like that. My kids usually double-team me; one of them stays up super late and then the other gets up early. Sigh. :)
Thats what ellie is doing to me right now! Hence the blog hopping. Shes just starting to fall asleep in ny arms...so i think i got off a litt;e easier. I guess our twos can have terrible moments and lots of sweet ones too:)
Maybe she has a super colon like Elvis.
Jana- that sounds absolutely horrible! Jenny- glad to know we are in the same boat...a lot of the time! Angie - seeing as how Elvis literally died on the toilet, I am hoping Evie doesn't have a super colon :) That comment made me laugh!
