So you don't know me at all and at the risk of being labeled a totally creepy blog stalker... I'm commenting anyway. I know Dan's mom and Kevin and browsed over from Mallory's blog. I bought my one year old a weighted blanket and it was like a miracle. I wrote about it on my blog if you are interested in seeing it. http://fishypeople.blogspot.com/2011/01/magic.html
We are in the same boat. Rook hasn't been sleeping ever since we moved. It's been about 7 months of being sleep deprived!! I keep hoping it'll get better.
"Quick, hide in the closet! The Ellie-scary-belly is coming!" (apr '11)
Alta: "Where's my blanky?" Dan: "It's upstairs, you can go get it." Alta: "How 'bout you go get it and I stay here." (feb '11)
Alta told me, "Sam's a boy, Lucy's a girl, Rhys is a boy, I'm a girl, Ellie's a baby, Daddy's a boy, and you're a mommy." (nov '10)
After reading Are You My Mother with Dan, Alta came up to me and said "Get me some food, Mother". (nov '10)
Alta to a crying Ellie: " I don't know what to do wiff you, Ellie!" (oct '10)
We were looking at a picture of an elephant: Me: "What color is the elephant?" Alta: "It's not an elephant." Me: "What is it?" Alta: "It's a giraffe-ephant." (oct '10)
Ellie got her shots and was pretty fussy all morning. At lunch Alta told me, "Ellie is kind of having a rough day". (oct '10)
Alta talking to herself: "Ellie girl, Ellie girl, Ellie squirrel. Is Ellie a squirrel? Nooooo, she's an Ellie girl!" (oct '10)
A conversation in the car: Alta: (driving past a random house) "Is that our house, Mom?" Me: "No." Alta: "Don't say no, Mom, that's not nice." (sept '10)
One night I was getting Alta ready for bed while Dan was trying to calm down a very fussy Ellie downstairs. Alta looked at me and asked, "What's her deal?" (aug '10)
Look at those bags under her eyes. She doesn't sleep! Help me!

ReplyDeleteSorry for the creepy blog stalking.
Oh my gosh, look at her hair! That is kinda insane. Sorry she's not sleeping, so hard! Good luck.
ReplyDeleteSams Club sells night-quil by the gallon....
ReplyDeleteI know One Fish and she is not creepy at all and she also has two little smart/active girls.
ReplyDeleteI really miss your blogging, so I hope Ellie decides to give you a break and sleeeeeeep.
Poor baby - and poor mama!
ReplyDeleteMy boys only start sleeping when I stop nursing. I'm sorry! I know what it's like to be sooooo sleep deprived!
