Zzzzz.....

I'm so so so so so tired.

Because of said tiredness, I can't ever think of anything to write about.

Baby Cakes is getting into my yarn.  And playing with a miniscule piece of newspaper.  And hugging the couch (at least, that's what it looks like).

She also hasn't been sleeping well the last couple nights.  It's been a fun situation ever since we took our trip to Florida and she got sick.  She now HAS to be nursed before going to sleep, both before naps and bedtime.  For the longest time, she was waking up 4 or more times a night, and needing to be nursed every time.  That has mostly stopped (except for the last 2 nights) and she has reduced it to 2 times a night.  Thankfully with about 4 hours in between each waking.

She has also decided that afternoon naps are for chumps.  I keep telling her that only the coolest kids take 2 naps a day, but she says "Nothing doing."  So at 9 months, she is down to 1 nap a day.  *sigh*

Thankfully, that lack of an afternoon nap hasn't been the reason for poor sleeping at night.  That's been all me.  Night before last, I decided it was bedtime before she was actually tired enough.  So she kept waking up.  She finally slept for longer than 1 hour at 1 am.  Then she woke up at 3.  Then at 7.  And she was up for the day.  Last night, she should have been in bed by 6 probably.  She didn't get laid down until 8, because The Man had to work late, and I wanted him to at least see her for a few minutes.  She was pretty much a mess.  And woke up every hour at least once until about 3 (I didn't get up every time, but I certainly woke up).  And she was up BEFORE 7.

So I'm pretty much the walking dead right now.  

I hope she takes a really long nap today, because I need it.
