Who needs sleep?
I DO, I DO!!! :( ((sigh)) Sleeping is not on Jacobs priority list right now and I can tell it is starting to effect me!! The funny thing too is that I just had holidays and my in laws took Jacob for the entire weekend that just past so I was able to rest and sleep in, it was great!! But now I am back at work (which I love) and getting up at 6:30am is becoming a challenge!! Last night Jacob woke up
3 times, every 2 hours!!!! I put him down at 9
ish and I crawled into bed at 11pm, just as I was about to turn the light off he started screaming, so I go in to check on him, get him back to sleep right away and off I go to bed! Then at 1am he is up again and again at 3am!! It's like he is reverting back to when he was a baby, although I think he slept better as a new born then he does now!! It's exhausting and I'm starting to wonder if he will ever sleep through the night again? I'm almost certain it is because of his teething but then I worry that we are causing him to get up from our bad habits, like feeding him when he wakes? I am not looking forward to the "tough love" day and I'm praying that he will get back on track by himself without us having to force the issue!?
Other then Jacobs horrible sleep habits not too much else is new. Thanksgiving is this weekend and I am going to try to cook my very first turkey!!! I invited a few friends over for a potluck on Sat and I'm hoping I don't make them all sick!! :P I'm sure it will be fine as long as the turkey isn't pink or so dried out it turns into jerky!
I haven't seen my Dad for a little while, it has been hard to see him now that I'm back at work and last weekend we were busy with track stuff. I keep forgetting to ask hubby if we can go over there on Thursday night so maybe I can go there this weekend or have him over for leftover turkey!!
In weight loss news ... it's going OK, I wasn't that great on my holidays but still managed to loose a few. But then last weekend I wasn't "good" at all! We went out with friends and even though I wasn't hungry I still ordered and ate. Then we had friends over at our house and ordered Chinese, the worst "diet" food out there!! I had no will power and gave in very easy, I must be stronger, need to find my will power!! I posted my tickers so hopefully I will look forward to seeing them move in the right direction!?

which night shift does mike get up for?
he gets up with me for all of them, we've always done it that way. And when Jacob refuses to go back to bed right away he is usually the one to stay up with him and rock him back to sleep. He's good with the night stuff! :)
