Moving sucks
My office is moving. Doesn't matter if it's home or office...moving just sucks. Yeah, just wanted to say that.

Sleep Deprivation and parenthood
I can remember being pregnant and taking naps whenever I felt like it. I told myself to enjoy these times because it wouldn't be this way after Aidan was born. Not sure I realized then just how true that was.
I can't remember when I last got a decent night's sleep. Last night Brady was fully awake from 11:30pm-3am, so currently I'm working on less than 4 hours of sleep. On any given night, one or both boys wakes up as many as 2 times, and that's just the humans bothering me. Then we've got two needy cats, who it seems crave our attention in the middle of the night, when we don't have other distractions. Mostly it's me they bother. Finally, the dog has nights where he needs to potty. All of this and perhaps ME having to get up to potty....hell, I wouldn't be surprised if I woke up or was woken up a dozen times per night. My dream for some time now has been to have a night where someone else will be in charge and I can take an Ambien and sleep the night away. How would that be?
