last night was R.O.U.G.H.!!!!!!! i'm gonna go ahead and say that was the worst night of sleep i've ever had and that includes going through the newborn phase - twice! malloy's sleeping on her princess air mattress but the fitted sheet/sleeping bag that goes on kept slipping off and so did malloy. she fell out of bed once while i was still awake. then she fell out at 12:30am and continued to wake up and yell out for me every half hr until 2:30am. then rex wakes up screaming at 3am and would not calm down. i gave him medicine, milk, rocked him, read him stories and finally he went down around 4:20am. during this time, malloy's up having a snack and cuddling with grandma val. i finally got a good solid 2 hrs before they both woke up at 6:45!!!!
they weren't too bad this morning considering the lack of sleep. malloy was so excited to have a visit from d'lynn, shea, and ahneka! she kept asking when her friends were coming over. she made ahneka hold her hand and walk with her and then made her jump, run, hop, march, etc just like she was! then she made shea play with all of her dolls, squinkies, and what not. well, i should say "play" because really, malloy played with the toys and talked at shea in long, drawn-out, strung together sentences that really weren't making much sense. (she's been doing this for a few weeks - she LOVES to tell stories, even if they make no sense at all!!!) rex also had a fabulous time with the girls! he was so funny hanging onto ahneka's legs, practically pulling her pants down! he was mauling her for quite a while. what can i say? he loves the older women ;)
