Sleep...must geet sleep

Well, I did it.  I finally got C to sleep in his own bed last night.  We won't talk about the screaming and tears, or the fact that I'm on only 3 hours of sleep right now.  (Right now I'm REALLY regretting giving up caffeine while nursing...there's not a drop of it in the house anywhere!  Not even in chocolate form!) 

What I will say is that I madee the decision based on making life easier for the whole family.  I loved sleeping with C.  I didn't sleep soundly, but I still loved sleeping with him.  But the rest of my life was suffering.  I haven't been able to snuggle with my husband to watch tv, or even play card games with him, because I always had a baby in my arms.  I haven't been able to give the other kids the 1-on-1 time they deserve.  And my house, well, let's just say that it's hard to clean one-handed. After these first few nights, I have faith that it will get easier.  I have to keep on believing that, or I think I'll go nuts!

Because I haven't posted in a while, here are some pictures of what C will most likely NOT look like today. :)

And one of my favorites...this is what happens when your sister wants to play with you...
