Sleep? What's that??


A night (last night) in the life of Ashley....

*11 pm feed and change Swayzee
*Go to bed at 11:45 pm when everything finally settles... 
*Saige wakes up screaming bloody murder when I get to bed and stays up for about half an hour
*12:30 am... Swayzee still awake...
*12:45 am Swayzee finally asleep
*12:55 am I finally fall asleep
*1:15 am Swayzee wakes up so I feed and change her
*1:45 am Saige (a Vietnam war vet) wakes up from one of her PTSD war dreams kicking and screaming and kicks me in the stomach, right in my c-section incision...
*2:15 am back to sleep
*2:45 am another war dream....
*3:00 am back to sleep
*4:00 am Swayzee up, feed and change
*4:30 am Saige up demanding to go to the potty... I take her she sits for 15 minutes and nothing... 
*4:45 am back to bed... 
*Fall asleep about 4:59 am
*5:00 am JJ's first alarm goes off
*5:15 am JJ's second alarm goes off
*5:30 am JJ's 3rd alarm goes off and he is very lucky he gets up
*6:00 am JJ starts his truck to leave for work and Saige wakes up screaming Daddy (she does this every morning)
*6:30 am back to sleep
*7:00 am Swayzee up feed and change
*7:30 am back to sleep
(Why I don't just get up at this point, I don't know... I really should, but I'm so tired I try to take advantage of Saige sleeping till 10 am..)
*9:00 Swayzee up feed and change her
*10:00 am Saige up...

Crawl out of bed and think about how I have to do it all over again in about 13 hours!! 

Total sleep: 3 hours 20 minutes.... 



This has been my schedule since we brought Swayzee home from the hospital. Someone tell me I will live through this, because at this point I don't know if I will!
