But tonight she is busting my chops, and not sleeping like the typical angel she is/was. She just would not go down. Adam tried many times, then I tried some times, then Adam gave up and went to bed because he has to work in the morning, and I kept trying and started praying, and then started crying. I wonder if I will ever get up to 8 hours of sleep a night ever again... If I can get six, I'm pretty happy. Last night, I got 1. 1 hour. I got a couple more somewhere between 7am and 11am. Anyway, life just sucks right now. It's how it is. I will look forward to when Adeline sleeps through the night.
That's my life. I know many of you have already experienced these baby hardtimes, but that doesn't make it any less sucky for me. The end.

Oh, Danelle. I was also a crying Mommy when Dottie wouldn't sleep. And I think I probably cried when Elliot wouldn't sleep either, but I blocked it out. I'm sorry to tell you, but I still rarely get 8 hours of sleep a night. But maybe Adeline will turn into a good sleeper! Some people get lucky! Here's for hoping! I wish you luck, and I feel your pain.
Danelle! She is so beautiful. Good luck with the new mom thing. I know I don't have the foggiest idea about going through this part of life, but I know you're a rock star and can do anything. :)
Danelle, your little girl is beautiful, just like you. I am so sorry you are in the throws of newborn wackadoodle sleep patterns. It gets better, I promise. Sometimes the only that worked for me was sticking the baby in a carseat and going for a drive at 3 in the morning. It is hard, there is no doubt about that. I will be there myself in two short months. Watch out for post-partum depression though, it can sneak up on you, and it can be very real.
Best of luck new mommy. Wish I could be there to hold your baby and let you sleep for awhile!
She is beautiful! Enjoy!
I just can't get over these pictures! Can't wait for more posts and updates, even though I see you at least once a week... :)
