    Saw this post under the “Family” tag, and had to take a peek. I’m out of the baby stage, but feel your pain. When you break it down by the numbers…ooooh, doesn’t look so great, does it? Here’s hoping you get some sleep tonight~

      Thanks :) It’s slowly getting better. I had a nap this afternoon and feel a bit better. Thanks for stopping by.

    I so feel your pain – Aaron has not slept through the night ever – until just recently – yes 4 years and 2 months!! I so hope you don’t have that experience – funny thing is that I feel more stuffed now than when I had no sleep – guess I got used to waking up 3 times at night. Here’s hoping everyone is better soon and that you are blessed with sleep. Love your humour Erin!!
