Mommy Needs A Timeout

Phil has been on vacation with his brothers and cousin since Saturday morning. I just know he had a great time - and he really deserved to get out and have some time to himself. My sister came to help me out with my boys - but left over 24 hours ago and I am exhausted! Holy smokes - Aiden would not go to bed last night (cried, screamed, kept turning his bedroom light on) He did this from 9 - 12 last night & then was up at 6. He jumped into bed with me but only did so for an hour. Graham was also up at 4:15 to eat and then fell back asleep til 7. I mentioned exhausted, right?!?!

Now it is 4 and Aiden has been resisting taking a nap for an hour and a half. Poor guy has to be pooped - I just don't understand why he wont lay down....I could fall asleep before my head even hits the pillow!

Phil is coming home tonight (Thank Goodness!) and I can't help but think how slow these last hours of him not being here are going to go. I was glad to have my sister here, but am ready to get back into our normal routine... And normal napping schedule too!

  1. Sounds like quite a day! Doesn't it make you appreciate your husband... and the fact that you are not a single parent?! Well done you for surviving it, mom! :)
