Sleep issues are interfering with my ability and opportunity to blog these days. The boys are struggling mightily to go to sleep at night...but, lucky me, they still get up at the crack of dawn.
Two night ago two of the three fought until almost 11. Then the third was up at 12:30 a.m. Ouch. Last night it was 11 again before we had them all down for the night. Not that they slept all night, mind you. Tonight everyone was asleep by 7:30 p.m., so Jeff and I went out to play with Amelia. By 8:30 p.m., all the babies were up and UNHAPPY. We finally got them all back down by 10 p.m. tonight, but it may not stick, and I'm not expecting any long stretches of sleep tonight.
I used to hope and pray for 5 hours in a row (for me!). Now I've lowered my expectations and I hope and pray for 3 hours at a stretch. At least that's a goal we can achieve most nights. It's partly the reality of three babies and a toddler and partly Alex's reflux issues.
Good thing they are so gosh darned cute!

hey i am sorry. I promise that it gets easier; i know that doesn't comfort you now but this to will pass. Hang in there
I am glad we are not the only ones dealing with the "I don't want to go to sleep, I want to stay up and hang out with you" stage. We had two up until 11:30pm the other night and Quinn has decided going to sleep at night is no fun at all!! Good luck - hopefully it will pass soon!!!

Last night we had one that had a bad dream and woke up at 12 for a while. I don't envy your lack of sleep.
