For some crazy reason I let Emma crawl into bed with me last night. I think I was too delirious or half way sleeping to know what I was doing. “just stop the crying” was the only clear thought in my head.
Well, I ended up suffering the consequences. I couldn’t sleep well at all with that hot breathing body next to mine. I felt like Cliff Hanger clinging to the edge of the bed. It felt like I was half conscious all through the night. Ya know, you are asleep but you are still aware that your mouth is hanging open. Of course there was plenty of room over by hubby but I couldn’t think straight enough to just sit up and slide her over. Instead I just waited for morning to arrive so my agony would end.
Note to self: do not allow 3 yr old in bed!!
Now I’m tired but, luckily for the kids, not too grouchy. Which I usually am when I don’t have enough sleep in my body.
There isn’t much going on around here today. I let Jer take the car to work but I had some things to do around the house…
We walked to a friends house in the morning and then was surprised by a visit from my aunt and her darling girls. Happy day. I love having visitors. I think we should all pop in on each other more often (I’m sure a ton of you would disagree) (maybe it depends on the visitor). But I want the company. Who cares if the house is messy. No pretending here.
Well, now that I have stared at the computer in a daze for an hour and a half (when I should have been napping), it’s time to get productive. Peace out.
My name is Manda and I love creating 
i cannot sleep with my children. they are too noisy and pokey and they are all elbows. it’s not a pleasurable experience!
Amen about the pop-ins! I miss those. When we lived in Cville we had 8 Ms in 20 town homes that faced each other. We always did the pop-in and it was so fun. The kids also yelled at each other out the windows. Our neighbor’s house is up for sale, any takers?
EEK. I die over pop ins. In fact, I call them poop ins. Only you and mom are allowed to pop. Or poop.
Amanda,
Hey! I grew up with Jeremy in the good old Fair Oaks ward and met you just after Emma was born. Julie and I were swaping blogging stories the other day (before she linked yours to her site) and how we’ve read blogs of people we don’t know…I gave her one from an old friend and she gave me yours! It is so fun to see your cute family. So I read that you are in Utah and I’m wondering how close to Jason Hackett. I bet Jeremy and Jason would have a hay day hanging out! I love your sister’s site too! Have a great day!
Carrie
ps…say hi to Jeremy for me!
