sleeping in

ever since Adler has picked up her cold from school she has been a much better night sleeper. I am sure it is that her body really needs it and i promise you that my body appreciates it. i love getting to sleep all night again. i still have the monitor on but that uninterrupted sleep is glorious. since i gave up breastfeeding and drinking gallons of water i don't have to get up every 30 minutes to pee either. yea!!! Adler seems like she is going to be a grumpy-Gus just like her sister when she wakes. this week i have had to go in and wake her up. so i open the door, rub her back and then talk to her a little. i normally then leave for a little bit to let her adjust. sometimes she stands by the railing waiting for me to return sometimes she just sits there and starts crying. i then have to pick her up and we snuggle for a few minutes before we can do anything else. if i try to skip the snuggle step she is bear. i love the snuggle step and never skimp. even if that means i have to tote her around with me and do double duty making breakfast at the same time.
