Four

That's the hours of sleep I got last night. God sure knew what he was doing when he made babies so cute!! Poor Jaylin just could NOT get to sleep last night. I nursed her until it hurt and finally gave in and gave her a bottle. She still would not go to sleep so I got desperate. I put her in her swing, got a pillow and a blanket and slept on the couch while she was swinging. I put her down around 12:00 and she slept until 4:00. That was a nice stretch of sleep :). At 4:00 she woke up and I took us to bed and fed her. She usually falls asleep doing that but she was moving around a lot. Then the alarm went off and I was talking to Jason and playing with Jaylin. When it was time for me to get up and help Jake get ready for school, that little stinker promptly fell asleep, and is still sleeping now!

I'm wondering if she just isn't filling up good when I nurse her. I will feed her 30-45 minutes and then 1 hour later she's hungry again. I feel like I'm feeding her all the time! It's so hard to get things done right now and I'm torn about what to do about it. I wish I could feed her and then get a 3 or even 2 1/2 hour stretch in between so I can work and get things done around the house. As it is I'm feeding her...getting a little bit done and then it's time for her to eat again. I'm not complaining but I just wish I could figure out how to fix this. Personally, I would like to start to switch to bottles. I know it's more expensive but how many things can one person do? I work for crying out loud! It would be SO NICE to give Jason the bottle and ask him to feed her while I get something like dinner done. I want to eat with my family and not have to go into hiding to feed Jaylin when we have company. My freakin boobs hurt!

Ok, I'm over that now- I just had to get it out.

Today is my day off but I'm going to have to get some work done as I didn't get as much done yesterday as I would have liked. (Please reference the above paragraph) I need to clean the girls' room and do laundry. I would also like to get the whole house vacuumed and the kitchen tidied up. The kitchen will probably take 10 minutes as it isn't really "dirty." My desk really needs to be cleaned up so I guess I'll be doing that too! Is it bed time yet?

Ahhhh, I love my life. I really do :)
