Wow its not going on 7am and I've been up for at least 1 hour now feeding and trying to get baby Maddy back to bed for a few more hours. She wants to be stubborn and not sleep in her bed right now. So I've put her in her bed with me sitting right next to it as she drinks some food and soothes herself back to bed. What ever makes her happy right now mommy certainly doesn't care. I have to get her to learn that my bed is for me and her daddy and her bed is her bed and she isn't coming out till morning. I mean the only other time she is coming out of it over night is for feedings as well as diaper changes. I think I might do what one of the moms on mylot said she did and that was to let her kids sleep as long as they wanted in the night time and wake her kids up every 3 to 4 hours in the day time. I don't know if that will work or not but I do need to try to keep her a wake in the day time to learn that day time is wake time and night time is sleeping time. All babies are like this at first till they get older and learn.
I so needed a mommy break last night when my husband got home from work. I spend hours hungry and not being able to eat because of little Maddy not letting mommy out of her sight long enough for me to heat up something and to eat it. So we want at like 1am to Steak and Shake came home at about 2am. Since Maddy was already a sleep and we didn't want to wake her we left her in her car seat. That is where she slept till about 6am. I don't know if she is starting to go to sleep yet or is just looking at something as she lays in her bassinet but I know she is being pretty quite with a few little sounds here and there from here. I can see out of the corner of my eyes her kicking her little legs to shake the bassinet.
If you have every looked at a tired baby you can see it in their eyes that they so want to go to sleep but they feel that they will miss out on the world. That is the look right now that my baby has in her eyes. That is probably the same look that I had early this morning before i went to bed. I know today I will so need a nap if I can get on in. I know my husband is sound a sleep and only heard her cry one time while I was making her a bottle. We have plans to go out today with the baby by taking her out for lunch and getting stuff that we need for her because we are running out of it. Like diapers and clean clothes so its laundry day in our house which is twice a week when my husband is off of work.
