I'm exhausted

We had a bad night last night. A bad one. Kaelin went to bed at a decent time and was easy t put back to bed. Then I brought her int bed with us when we were going to bed. She would not g back to sleep! Every time she'd start to drift off, she'd wake up screaming to nurse again. I was set on making her go as long as possible without it since I'm trying to wean her. After about an hur of her waking up every 5 minutes screaming, and then Daddy having to go sleep n the couch, I gave in and we both finally got a little bit of sleep. She was up before 9 this morning, which is early for her. She ended up taking her nap at 12:45 and slept for about an hour. Nrmally she fights naps as lng as possible and finally crashes at 4 or 5.

Mike had to work really late today so went to my Mom's and stayed for dinner. Kaelin played in the sprinkler for a hour or two before dinner. She's really into water activities these days. But then she doesn't want to take a bath, wierd. Anyways, dinner was great and Kaelin ate a ton of chicken and then a pear. Since she was up early and napped early I had to keep her awake when we got home. That is a pain in the butt, let me tell ya. If I let her go to bed before 9 she would treat it like a nap and be back up in a few hours. She's had a runny nose all day today also. I think it's from teething, that would explain her crabby mood lately too. I'm very excited this will be her last 4 teeth, but at the same time I'm not looking forward to her cutting 4 more molars. The first set were hell. I gave her some cold medicine with tylenol before bed so hopefully I'm covered either way and she'll have a good night tonight.

While I was waiting for Mike to get home I finished up Kaelin's hot pink and zebra ribbon onesie! I just need to make the bow to pin on it. I'm going to make her a matching tutu to wear to dance class and a pair of matching ribbon jeans for her birthday pictures next month. She's going to look so cute in her zebra hair bows, ribbon onesie, ribbon jeans and matching tennis shoes I found for her! I can't wait! Hopefully I don't screw the jeans up. I think I'll do pictures in that outfit and the dress and brown bows she wore for Mother's Day because that was just precious!

Well, we are going to finish the season finale of Desperate Housewives before bed.
