I'll take 5 straight over 8 broken any day
I feel like hell today. My 3yr old has a bad cold and has been coughing up a storm. I didn't get to sleep until about 1AM then he woke up coughing at 2. He was in bed with us for a little while then wanted me to lay down in his room with him. I was a total zombie at that point.
I dozed off and the next thing I knew it was 4:30 and I was all cramped up from twisting myself around his stuffed animals in order to lay on the twin bed with him. I went into my room and passed out. Poor little coughing boy staggered in at 6:50AM and wanted me to take him downstairs for some water and cartoons. I also got some cough medicine in him.
He was awake until big brother was off to school at 8:30. Coughing boy dozed off on a pillow on the living room floor. Of course I was fully awake and getting my hubby out the door by then. Once everything was quiet again, I thought about dozing on the couch. This thought triggered coughing boys radar and he woke up.
We had breakfast and got dressed. I have been feeling like dozing off at any time since. I would love to just sit on the couch and doze but coughing boy won't let me. We had to play playdough and search for hot wheel cars. He is a total crab and cries at the drop of a hat. Not like his usual self. I know the broken sleep is getting him too. I am hoping he will take a nap with me soon. If not, we have to go pick his brother up from school and there will be no sleep for me until at least 10PM.
I apologize if this blog was mindless. I am quite the zombie right now. Just trying to inspire my brain to charge up. I'm so tired!
