Hey Now!

it's noon already?!! where did the time go? i have been doing pretty good about getting on the computer in the morning and turning it off in the afternoon and leaving it off until after dinner. last night i didn't get on it until 9:30! not bad eh, zee? i have been online this morning trying to find a flight back to georgia to see my dad and just got caught up and lost track of time i guess! at least this time on the computer was for a good reason.

last night was the kid's science fair. i took dew, cam, devyn, and keith and i am glad we went. i was thinking our project was kinda lame, (only because i had very little notice- a week before!) but the kids enjoyed it and liked seeing all of the other projects- some were really very interesting! there were lots of parents who were presenting the projects like they had done them themselves! we came home to a quiet house, deacon and carter both asleep by 8pm! yay dad!
i went to bed early myself...early for me anyway. midnight. i was really tired too. i love going to bed tired, cause then i know that i won't just lie there awake, with a million things running through my head. so when i am so tired i can hardly see straight, i know i can fall asleep as soon as i snuggle in, and sleep GOOD. and GOOD sleep it is, until i am awaken at 4am! i can deal with almost anything, but broken sleep just irritates me to NO end! deacon still wakes up in the middle of the night and comes crawling into my bed, and normally i would just open up the covers and welcome him in and go right back to sleep. only if i did that, i would surely find myself lying in a puddle of wetness come sunrise! so i have to get up, take him to the bathroom, and then put him back in his bed as i think the reason he wakes up in the first place is because he has to use the bathroom, not because he woke up and wanted to be with me. so then i get back in bed, and just lie there for a good 15 minutes, if not longer. then carter wakes up crying, for no reason. i hold him, rock him a little, hush him and lay him down again in his bed, then go back to bed. he got up again, (oh ya! he can open doors now) and i hear him going down the hall towards the kitchen. i get up again and find him waiting for me at the refrigerator. he wants milk. i oblige, and by this time dad is up and in the shower getting ready for work. the noise of him getting ready peaks carter's curiousity and i'm thinking he'll never get back to sleep. which also means i won't either. and it's 5am. it's these times i ask myself if i should go back to bed or just get up. of course i'm lazy and choose bed cause it's warm and cozy, and then lay there until 7. with a million things running through my head...

OMG I hate, hate broken sleep too! I can deal with waking early as long as I get to sleep solid sleep. I'll sleep 1am-6am and feel fine as long as I wasn't interrupted in those 5 hours. And don't you hate when Daddy gets up and the kids know it! Even though they can't do much about it, I'm still silently cursing Erick for "putting his socks on too loudly." LOL!!
